Federation Tower
Rising out of the Moscow City site – one of the most important urban developments in the country – are two impressive towers in spectacular glass coats.
The taller tower has impressive vital statistics – with the antenna it will stretch almost half a kilometre into the sky (448m to be exact), leaving the rest of Europe's skyscrapers in the shade. The two towers stand on a podium, to be equipped with 15 low-rise Schindler elevators and 16 escalators. Completing the building's traffic network is a spectacular glass column between the towers, where 2-3 panoramic elevators will whisk passengers skywards. |

Eight metres per second
Designed by architects Peter P Schweger and Sergei Tschoban, the taller tower stands at 354m with 93 floors; its sister structure - more diminutive at 242m – has 62. Passengers using the Schindler 7000s in the higher tower will be transported at speeds of up to 8 m/s.
In the completed Federation Tower, many activities will take place in the podium, which will host entertainment facilities, shops and restaurants, as well as a conference and events center. The towers will contain luxury offices and apartments and a five-star Hyatt hotel. |
