Just Huge
(click to enlarge)Location: Mannheim.
Visible here are the socalled "Neckar Skyscrapers", also called "Neckar Shore North Buildings". Three towers, each 30 levels, all built on a single base building about five levels high - with a large part of those used as parking garages. There's also a vocational school center along with a public library in that building. No idea how many people live in there - rough estimate: around 5,000.
At the third level of the base building, a bridge connects across the Neckar to the Collini Center, which has another two similar towers - one residential (with 1,300 people living in there), the other slightly smaller one for office space.
Tram Ride #2

Riding tram line 12 from underground station Ludwigshafen City Hall to semi-underground station Hemshofstraße.
