The DC Towers, also known as the Donau City Towers, is a mixed-use skyscraper complex in the Donaustadt District of Vienna, Austria. The towers were designed by French architect Dominique Perrault. Werner Sobek AG was responsible for the structural engineering as well as the facade and height access planning of DC Tower 1. DC Tower 1, the tallest skyscraper in Austria at 220 metres (720 ft) or 250 metres (820 ft) including the antenna spire, was officially finished with an opening ceremony on 26 February 2014 attended by architect Perrault and former astronaut Buzz Aldrin. Due to the 2008 financial crisis, ground breaking was delayed several times. Eventually, construction was started on 17 June 2010. As of June 2012, tenants were confirmed for 50 percent of the floor space according to the owner Wiener Entwicklungsgesellschaft für den Donauraum. Most of the available floor space will be used for offices. Baxter International has been confirmed as one of the largest tenants. The upper floors will be used for apartments, while the first 15 floors will house a four-star hotel operated by the Spanish Sol Meliá Group. There will also be a restaurant in one of the top floors. DC Tower 2 will reach 180 m (590 ft), making it Vienna's fourth-tallest building. It will house offices, shops and rental flats.
