Gentrified Gasometers - An Old Viennese Gas Plant is Now Thriving Community (GALLERY)
An Old Viennese Gas Plant is Now Thriving Community

These incredible gasometers were once the largest gas plants in all of Europe and were an architectural staple in Vienna. These four large tanks have have been transformed by Jean Nouvel, Coop Himmelb(l)au, Manfred Wehdorn and Wilhelm Holzbauer into thriving communities.

The old Viennese gas plant turned housing community is a testament to the ingenuity of the engineers and the willingness of the Viennese people to embrace constrictive architectural change. Gentrification at its finest.
