LAGOS / The Stratosphere / 60 floors
 

Not often we see news of a skyscraper in Nigeria. ;) From a post in SSC.

The will be Africa´s tallest highrise, more will follow! So watch out..."The Stratosphere" (hotel and residential tower) will be built on Banana Island, a new posh residential offshore development in Lagos (Nigeria). Abuja will also get a $500 million tower called "Abuja Millenium Tower".

Great news! A megacity like Lagos could use some high-rises.

Here is a better picture of it (777 Tower in LA).

WOW...Nigeria? fantastic!

The skyscraper revolution is almost complete! :haha:

Is the one in LA around the same height also?

Edit: Thanks Kevin.

Nigeria kicks ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like it. Elegant design. No surprises that I like it as 777 Tower is my favorite LA skyscraper.

Pelli ? Pickard Chilton ? or neither of them ?
It's not very innovative anyway.

Nigeria's just starting to build tall, they've got a ways to go before they get to "innovative". :rolleyes:

wow. . . let the good times roll. . .

Nigeria fantastic !
Now this is the damn proof, the whole world is under skyscraper revolution...
