Germany Elbphilharmonie Hamburg
The “Elbphilharmonie” is still under construction and will at the end be a remarkable new architectural and musical landmark of Hamburg. Completion is scheduled for the end of 2016. Already now the building, situated very close to the “Speicherstadt” and the “Harbour City”, has a very unique shape. Each of the glas-front elements, weighing several tons, is unique and is it easy to imagine that since the planning phase the costs have been exploded. According to the architect (Herzog & De Meuron) the building shall give the impression of a giant chrystal reflecting town, river Elbe and heaven differently from any position and at any hour of the day.
Nearby are Hamburg Hafencity and Speicherstadt as well as Hamburg Harbour at the other side of river Elbe.
