Skyrises That Pretend To Shape San Jose’s Skyline

(QCostarica) Highrise buildings have been cropping up all over San Jose, a city that is moving away from the traditional horizontal construction to vertical.

Many of these 20+ stories buildings, mostly residential, have been built in the area around La Sabana park, Rohrmoser and the current tallest buildings in the country, the twin towers on Paseo Colon.

Torre 40 will be built on Paseo Colon, next to the Mercedes building and will, at 40 stories, be the tallest building in the country...until the Sabana Capital gets done.

Two projects, Torre 40 and the Sabana Capital, which at 150 metres will be highest in country and the region, are getting ready to start. Many others, pretending to re-shape San Jose’s skyline are still only on the drawing board.
