Description from the provider
Vienna's new landmark for living at great 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 unmatched: the view sweeps over the skyline, follows the Danube – the mighty "megawater" of the city – and extends far beyond urban and rural horizons. Here, the view becomes not a luxury but a daily experience.
With the DC2 Tower, a new architectural landmark is emerging in Vienna's Danube City and 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 is among the most spectacular residential projects in the country, with 52 floors and 314 high-quality apartments starting from the 32nd floor. Apartment sizes range from approximately 30 to 260 square meters, offering a consciously diverse selection – from intelligently planned studio apartments to comfortable family residences and spacious five-room maisonettes. Each unit impresses with thoughtful floor plans, high living quality, and generous window areas that frame the view outside and make the city part of the living space. Loggias, balconies, and open areas extend the living space 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 on sustainability and future viability. As the first high-rise in Austria with a photovoltaic facade and the first building in Europe with PV elements extending over the entire building height, the DC2 Tower sets new standards. The translucent PV panels allow natural daylight to enter while also contributing significantly to self-generated electricity.

Maisonette Residence | 110 m² | 3 rooms | Two loggias | Sunsets over Vienna.
This extraordinary maisonette on the 51st floor of the DC2 Tower is located on Austria's highest residential level. There are no higher apartments in the entire country. This is the absolute pinnacle of living. From up here, a spectacular panorama unfolds: the view stretches westward over Vienna to the Viennese foothills, Kahlenberg and Leopoldsberg – accompanied by daily new light moods and impressive sunsets. All penthouse apartments on this level share an exclusive wine cellar directly on the 51st floor – a privilege that further enhances this living form.
The entrance is clear and functional: on one side a practical wardrobe niche, on the other a modern kitchenette with a separate storage room. Adjacent, the spacious living and dining area opens up, extending along the entire length of the window front and making the city panorama the daily backdrop. This level is accompanied by an impressive loggia of approximately 36 m² – your private viewing terrace over Vienna. A second, more intimate loggia of approximately 9 m² offers another retreat for the evening. Behind the kitchen, there is a guest WC with a hand basin, discreetly integrated into the floor plan.
