looks good the base of the tower could be worked on a little it almost looks as if the tower is growing out of the ground maybe this is how the real life one looks, idk, but thats what i noticed

There is such a lack of good towers on the STEX. Nice to see one appear! Good size too. Lots of places I can use this.

The base of the Messeturm doesn't look that right, and it doesn't seem to look real, if I remember right. I was born in Aachen, only 60 kms or so from Koeln, been there many times. The rest of the bldg is fine. Good job!

Hey, what a surprise to see that tower here! It's too bad that the SC4 perspective squashes buildings so much - the tower looks much too fat and low, and the bricks on the real thing are much darker. I like the details on the rooftop, though. :) Any chance for a version 2? I am from Cologne (born there, living there), so I really like to see this tower BATted!

A very nice building, although compared with the original the BAT should be a bit taller and more slender. Nevertheless I will find a nice place for this in my cities and I want to thank you for creating and sharing this with the community.

"wow there musnt be any tall buildings in germany then" The Commerzback Building in Frankfurt is 850 Ft. tall, and is the (at the time I read this from a book) tallest building (not structure, building) in Europe. So, no. Germany has tall buildings. I beleive a loose representation of the Commerzbank is in the game already. XD Oh, great job on the Messeturm.
