Medienhafen
- Neuer Zollhof, Frank Gehry buildings, Hyatt Regency, Colorium, Unterbilk, Düsseldorf-Hafen
West of the Rheinturm (the tall TV towre), along Rhine, is the relatively new development called Medienhafen (Media harbor), known for Frank Gehry’s twisted residential buildings in stained steel, white and red. They are called Neuer Zollhof and were completed in 1998, a popular attraction for tourists. Around the port there are several highrises as the Hyatt Regency Düsseldorf and the colourful Colorium from 2001 by Alsop and Partners. Stadttor is a parallelogram shaped office building with a 15-storey atrium, built in 1998. Medienhafen has it’s own nice skyline, and is mainly commercial and industrial. Landtag Nordrhein-Westfalen is the state parliament building, made of circular stuctures next to the TV tower, facing Rhine.
