Sorry fellas, Nicosia is at least trying to modernize.
Good luck to the nation's capital.

When business's want to invest in Cyprus, they don't want to locate their offices and headquarters in 4 floor concrete commie blocks. They want upmarket and stylish premises to make a good impression.
Ahh..The sweet smell of capitalism and imperialism...

I do, Bill.
It's the Limassol Twin Towers. 19/20 floors.
2nd tallest is the T25 in Nicosia. 15/16 floors.

The Olympic Residence (Twin Towers) is 16 floors... without counting the ground floor.

Yeah, there is a bit of confusion because of the the ground floor, which is actually double..
then you get the top 5 floors which are much taller than the bottom ones.

the bottom line.
The towers have the height of a standard 22 floor skyscraper.

Count them.

by **Cap** » Wed Jul 03, 2013 9:09 pm

I count 18, excluding ground floor.

Not too shabby. But very modest.
