The newest addition to Hamburg's skyline at the eastern end of the famous Reeperbahn. Actually it's called "Tanzende Türme", which translates to "Dancing Towers". Although the offices are in use, there are still some construction works going on, that's why the orange van was there.

Congrats on the HM. Whilst aware of the two distractions, those unusual buildings are so demanding of attention that one is not distracted for long. Great entry.
