Fifty years after its original construction, the structure has been revamped by COBE. Now, the 17-storey silo is a residential apartment building, replete with 38 unique units, which range in size from 106 square meters to 401. The upper and lower levels both have spaces for &lsquo;public&rsquo; functions, such as dining and events.</p> <figure><p><a href="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/im/imprk7kwo2tb03eh.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/im/imprk7kwo2tb03eh.jpg"></a></p><figcaption>Credit: Rasmus Hjortsho&#771;j </figcaption></figure><figure><p><a href="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/8b/8bcobmmxndeghsy8.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/8b/8bcobmmxndeghsy8.jpg"></a></p><figcaption>Credit: Rasmus Hjortsho&#771;j </figcaption></figure><figure><p><a href="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/ae/ae4xsjig77zts4cb.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/ae/ae4xsjig77zts4cb.jpg"></a></p><figcaption>Credit: Rasmus Hjortsho&#771;j </figcaption></figure><figure><p><a href="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/ac/ackujy06xjiwsaeb.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/ac/ackujy06xjiwsaeb.jpg"></a></p><figcaption>Credit: Rasmus Hjortsho&#771;j </figcaption></figure><figure><p><a href="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/ls/ls00stsbclfgg1tn.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/ls/ls00stsbclfgg1tn.jpg"></a></p><figcaption>Credit: Rasmus Hjortsho&#771;j </figcaption></figure><figure><p><a href="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/3y/3yrpw3wkf025xuey.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/1028x/3y/3yrpw3wkf025xuey.jpg"></a></p><figcaption>Credit: Rasmus Hjortsho&#771;j</figcaption></figure> https://archinect.com/news/article/106019341/danish-parking-garage-invites-to-stay-and-play Danish parking garage invites to stay and play Alexander Walter 2014-08-07T14:18:00-04:00 >2018-11-07T11:16:03-05:00 <img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/79/79cc3d05ada109df7d56f4365c0aead6?fit=crop&auto=compress%2Cformat&enlarge=true&w=1200" border="0" /><em><p>A new parking garage in Nordhavn, Denmark by JAJA Architects will combine form, functionality, and fun. Draped in greenery and topped with a public playground, the aptly named Park and Play reimagines a garage as an active social space rather than simply a storage place for cars. [...] The garage is being built as part of the first phase of Nordhavn&rsquo;s almost 500-acre master plan to be developed over the next 40 to 50 years.</p></em><br /><br /><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"> <html><head><meta></head></html>
