The Cologne Waterfront is a very impressive part of the city. If you walk from the city center southwards, you get to an area, where sophsticated architectural buildings are situated.

The “Kranhäuser” are a landmark, which can be seen from far away. The “Crane-buildings” were developed by Linster, Bothe, Richter, Teherani and look like this:
