To See and to Be Seen The former industrial area around the Vienna Gasometer is rapidly becoming a part of the actual urban fabric, but also undergoing a process of identity construction reflecting growth, progress and future. This permits a peculiar architectonic language to accrue, whose expressions talk in Ville Verdi through the terraces and vertical greenery on the one, and through the tension, radiation and appeal on the other side. The unusual, slightly sloping posture accosts future residents, while strengthening the presence of the buildings. The interior answers the demands of modern residential building, and various joint facilities are offered beside compact residential units. All 170 residences have related free areas which guarantee undisturbed views. Ville Verdi testify best the multi-layeredness of the language of architecture which understands the connection of the existing fabric with new architecture.
