There will soon be a new skyscraper in Berlin, intended to create a new “gate to Berlin.” If completed, the Estrel Tower could become the tallest in the German capital, with its groundbreaking scheduled for fall 2020.
The existing Estrel Hotel at the Neukölln Shipping Channel (“Neuköllner Schifffahrtskanal”) is one of Germany’s largest and most popular. Being the biggest and having the highest turnover of them all is not enough anymore though as it aims to become the city’s tallest building by 2025 at 175 meters.
