Hamburg - Tanzende Tuerme


Hamburg is the second largest city by population in Germany and the second smallest German state by area.
"Hammaburg" was the name of a castle, that Charlemagne commissioned here between the River Alster and the River Elbe. In 1189 Frederick I (aka "Barbarossa") granted Hamburg freedom from customs duties for ships sailing the Elbe from Hamburg to the North Sea.
So the the second largest port in Europe developed here - and just near to the harbour the "Reeperbahn", where once ropes (reep = rope) were produced. Today the area is a centre of Hamburg's nightlife and as well a red-light district.
"Tanzende Tuerme" ("Dancing Towers", aka "Tango Towers") are two high rising buildings at the adress "Reeperbahn Nr. 1". The disputed buildings were completed in 2012. The buildings house offices, a restaurant, a rooftop bar, a hotel and - in the basement - the "Mojo Club".
When the photo was taken, the towers were still under contruction.
It was taken from the roof of the old Endo-Klinik, when the cafeteria up there was under renovation. Meanwhile the cafeteria is moved to groundfloor of the new building - and this pov is "out of reach".
