DC Tower 2 Set to Complete Vienna's Donau City Skyline
- DC Tower 2 is a 53-floor skyscraper under construction in Vienna's Donau City beside DC Tower 1, holding retail, restaurants or gastronomy, offices and roughly 470 rental apartments with private loggias[2][3]
- The two references give different heights:[3] (updated August 15, 2025) says 174 metres, while[2] says "approx. 180 meters after an architectural redesign"; both agree on 53 floors, and[2] adds almost 52,000 m2 of usable space[2][3]
- [3] schedules completion for 2026, matching the pin's end-of-2026 date;[2] gives no date for DC Tower 2 and mentions only that a third tower was "due for completion in 2022"[2][3]
- The tower was originally designed as a twin of DC Tower 1 but was reshaped after advice from Vienna's Urban Planning Advisory Board, with Dominique Perrault revising the plans - so the pin's "rising beside its twin" holds only for the original scheme[2][3]
- Project team: developer and client Commerz Real, general contractor S+B Gruppe AG, building contractor Porr AG, architect Dominique Perrault, structural planner ghp gmeiner|haferl & partner[2][3]
- Peri GmbH supplied the climbing formwork for the core, which was split into four work areas, supporting the pin's description of a jump-form climbing system[3]
- MAX FRANK Austria supplied circa 5,800 Egcobox thermally insulating cantilever connectors for the loggias, adapted to the geometries and delivered to the Oberndorfer precast plant, meeting Austrian OIB fire requirements (REI90, A2 non-combustible insulation body)[2]
- [3] says the facade will carry what it calls Europe's first photovoltaic solar panels on a high-rise, and that the finished tower would be Austria's second-tallest after DC Tower 1 (250 m)[3]
- [1] is The B1M's video "Inside Austria's (Terrifying) New Skyscraper Build", published 2025-04-02 and containing paid promotion for PERI; its chapters run through the foundations, building the core, the reinforcement, the cage, Donau City and the redesign, but the page itself gives no height, cost or completion date[1]

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong.
