1000 GLOSSY PAGES OF MODERN ARCHITECTURE
Central Europe has Austria, Germany, Lichtenstein and
Switzerland.
Zaha Hadid Architects' Nordpark Cable Railway in
Innsbruck, Austria is described:
"The one mile long railway, comprised of four new
stations and a cable suspension bridge over the river Inn, travels from the
center of Innsbruck to the top of the mountain in less than half an hour."
"The design for each station adapts to the specific
site conditions at various altitude, while maintaining the overall
architectural language of fluidity."
"Starting underground, the railway travels through a
tunnel, crosses the river Inn, starts its steep ascent , and finally arrives at
Hungerburg village."
