Two 311 meter towers are planed to be built in Kraków. The buildings located close to the A4 Motorway are estimated to cost 2.5 billion PLN.

Development plan of Cracow does not allow building very high structures in the city.

i hope they won't build it....it'd look stupid.... :)

They look like two very modern buildings. I'm sure it's a few kilometers from historic Krakow, just like the business center in Paris is far from the Eiffel Tower, or in Moscow from St. Basil's Cathedral.

It doesn't suit Kraków. Maybe somwhere round Warsaw.

Balice are far away.

I know that area of Kraków is developing pretty fast, so even though right now it looks like in the middle of nowhere, who knows, maybe this is not a bad idea? Especially when there will be some other buildings around.

Exactly. Krakow can have a historic and modern financial district as well. Having both will give the city a nice twist.

Well what do you think about the possibility a Central airport being built in between Lodz and Warsaw within the next 2 years for 3 billion euros, and Okecie maybe closing down. http://www.hotmoney.pl/artykul/kraj-lotnisko-okecie-zostanie-zamkniete -18845
