Description from the provider
Vienna's new landmark for living at lofty heights
In DC Tower 2, living begins where the city transitions into expansiveness. High above Vienna, exclusive apartments unfold with a panorama that is unmatched: the view sweeps across the skyline, follows the Danube – the city's mighty 'megawater' – and stretches 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 emerging 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 maisonettes. Each unit impresses with thoughtful floor plans, high living quality, and generous window areas that stage the view outside and make the city part of the living space. Loggias, balconies, and open spaces expand the living area and make the impressive height immediately tangible.
'Close to the clouds' becomes a reality here – a true 7th Heaven for discerning city dwellers.
Architecture meets innovation
A special focus is on sustainability and future viability. As Austria's first high-rise with a photovoltaic facade and also the first building in Europe whose PV elements extend over the entire height of the building, the DC2 Tower sets new standards. The light-permeable PV panels allow natural daylight to enter while making a significant contribution to self-generated electricity.

The photos shown in the exposé are for symbolic purposes only and may differ from the actual condition. DC2 Tower – Level 51
This spectacular 5-room corner maisonette on the 51st floor of the DC2 Tower is not just an apartment – it is the centerpiece of the entire building, its architectural masterpiece. It is located on Austria's highest living level. There are no higher apartments in the whole country. You cannot live higher.
As a corner apartment, this residence enjoys maximum privacy, additional lighting, and a panorama that opens wide over the city. With pure south orientation, a breathtaking view over the entire Vienna city center and far beyond unfolds before you. The city literally lies at your feet – without opposite neighbors, without boundaries, without compromises. All penthouse apartments on this level share an exclusive wine cellar directly on Level 51 – a discreet privilege reserved only for this height.
Even the entrance gives a hint of what follows: On one side, there is a cloakroom niche, a guest toilet with a washbasin, an office, and a bedroom with an ensuite bathroom with a tub – ideal for guests or as a private suite.
Along the corridor, the high-quality equipped kitchen with a separate storage room opens up – functional and also representative. Then unfolds the heart of the apartment: a monumental living and dining area that extends across the entire window front. More than half of this room is open up to the second upper floor, creating an atmosphere of freedom, spaciousness, and grandeur through the double room height. The main loggia accompanies the entire length of the apartment – a floating balcony over Vienna and your private loge above the city.
An elegant staircase leads to the upper level, which is exclusively for rest and privacy:
Three bedrooms with distant views
Master bedroom with
spacious bathroom with bathtub
walk-in wardrobe
private loggia of approx. 8 m²
Two further bedrooms with a shared bathroom (shower & WC) and a shared loggia of approx. 8 m²
