This model of a hotel on stilts brings to mind Tatzu Nishi’s suspended spaces, in which rooms, and even functioning hotels, are installed around historical public monuments. #brutgroup photo by @frank.kunert.photography via guardian
Designed by Manfred Hermer, Mannie Feldman and Rodney Grosskopf, The Ponte Tower, completed in 1975, quickly became a monument to failed architectural and social fantasies of a neatly organized society. During its existence, the core of the 173 m high cylinder was filled with trash, apartments were used as drug stations and brothels, and gangsters collected rent. Even now, after a decade of restoration, standing on the natural rock at its base, with rain coming down from the heavens, evokes an experience of being in an architecture that belongs to the order of the pyramids.
