Description from the provider
Vienna's new landmark for living at lofty heights
In the DC Tower 2, living begins where the city transitions into vastness. High above Vienna, exclusive apartments unfold with a panorama that is unparalleled: the view sweeps across the skyline, follows the Danube – the mighty "megawater" of the city – and extends far beyond urban and landscape horizons. Here, the view is not a luxury but a daily experience.
With the DC2 Tower, a new architectural landmark is being created in Vienna's Donau-City, marking a milestone for sustainable high-rise living in Europe. Designed by the internationally renowned architect Dominique Perrault, the 175-meter-high tower combines visionary architecture, forward-looking energy concepts, and exclusive living at previously unattainable heights.
The DC2 Tower, with 52 floors and 314 high-quality apartments starting from the 32nd floor, is one of the most spectacular residential projects in the country. Apartment sizes range from approximately 30 to 260 square meters, offering a consciously diverse selection – from intelligently planned one-room studios to comfortable family apartments and spacious five-room maisonette apartments. Each unit impresses with thoughtful floor plans, high living quality, and generous window areas that showcase the view and make the city part of the living space. Loggias, balconies, and open spaces extend the living area and make the impressive height immediately tangible.
"So close to the clouds" becomes reality here – a true 7th Heaven for discerning city dwellers.
Architecture meets innovation
A special focus is placed on sustainability and future viability. As Austria's first high-rise with a photovoltaic facade and the first building in Europe whose PV elements extend over the entire building height, the DC2 Tower sets new standards. The translucent PV panels allow natural daylight to enter while simultaneously contributing significantly to self-generated electricity.

The same model as in the floor plan section, now with the sun: set day and time and watch where the light falls. Once the north direction is right, we calculate hours of sun per room.

Hours of sun need the north direction, and the arrow on the plan does not say how the building actually stands. Turn the dial until it matches the site and we will calculate them.

Summer at this address
Hot area, but this flat has something to set against it.
Hotter than 83 % of residential areas in Wienofficial urban climate analysis (City of Vienna)
Within 1220 Donaustadt that is among the warmer quarter. For comparison: half of all listings in Wien are above 83 %.
What works against it
Green and shade
Green space: large park 172 m away · plenty of treesTrees and woody vegetation on 12% of the area within 300 m, private gardens included.
Plus every tree from the City of Vienna tree register: it covers the trees the city maintains along streets and in public parks. Trees in private gardens and in the woods are not included, so in such areas the map looks emptier than the place really is.
