There are not only vertical high-rise buildings, but also horizontal high-rise buildings. The SQUAIRE FRANKFURT above the railway station at Frankfurt Airport with a length of 660 metres and a width of up to 65 metres is indeed a horizontal giant structure which incorporates offices, hotels, restaurants, retail shops as well as conference and business areas.

This spectacular, futuristic, streamlined construction symbolises high speed air and rail travel. Inside the building there are two 350 and 170 metre long atriums, which are broken up by the dome of the already existing railway station.

Two glass roofs with a total area of more than 16,000 sqm glass and a clear width of up to 42 m are a special feature of the building.
