The Mischek Tower (German: Mischek Turm) is a high-rise residential building in the Donaustadt district of Vienna, Austria. Built between 1998 and 1999, the tower stands at 108 m (354 ft) with 36 floors and is the current 15th tallest building in Austria.

History

Architecture

The building was constructed between 1998 and 1999 based on designs by the architect couple Delugan-Meissl by the construction company Mischek, which acted as general contractor, on behalf of the property developer Wiener Heim. The 110-meter-high building was the tallest residential building in Austria until the opening of the Neue Donau high-rise in 2002. Built from precast concrete elements, the Mischek Tower with its 35 floors (from the Donauplatte level, the street level is on level −3) is considered the tallest prefabricated building in the world.

Located on the edge of Donau City between Donaupark and Austria Center Vienna, the bar-shaped building serves as a visual boundary between the city and the park. In addition to the actual high-rise, there are two further building sections, each with 9 floors. Towards the Danube, a residential building of the Donaucity residential park borders directly to the south of the Staircase 3 building section.

The building is owned by the buyers of the approximately 440 apartments, most of which are subsidized by the State of Vienna.
