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 over the skyline, follows the Danube – the powerful "megawater" of the city – and stretches far beyond urban and landscape horizons. Here, views are not a luxury, but a daily experience.
With the DC2 Tower, a new architectural landmark is being created in Vienna's Danube 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. The apartment sizes range from approximately 30 to 260 square meters, offering a consciously diverse selection – from intelligently designed one-room studios to comfortable family apartments to spacious five-room maisonette apartments. 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 extend the living area and make the impressive height immediately tangible.
"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 the first high-rise in Austria with a photovoltaic facade and also 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 also making a significant contribution to self-generated electricity.

Living where the city is at your feet
This 1-room apartment in the DC2 Tower is a retreat above the pulsating metropolis – with a view over Vienna. The western orientation gives the apartment warm afternoon and evening light, making every sunset a private spectacle over the rooftops of the city.
The generous 10 m² loggia extends the living space outdoors and becomes a personal viewing terrace – ideal for relaxed evenings, a drink at sunset, or simply to let the skyline take effect.
Room concept
The floor plan is clear, efficient, and tailored to modern urban living:
Upon entering the apartment, one first reaches the entrance area with direct access to the bathroom, which is equipped with a shower, washbasin, and integrated toilet. Subsequently, the bright living space opens up, elegantly combining living, sleeping, and cooking.
The fully equipped kitchenette is subtly integrated into the room and offers everything needed for urban daily life. Large window fronts bring the city into the apartment and create an extraordinary spatial feeling.
