Place Ville Marie

For some reason yesterday I was thinking about what if PVM was one or two buildings it would be one of the tallest buildings on the planet, if the city did not have height restrictions.

 

Seeing PVM is like 4 towers + the middle connecting everything together, just to make one. Each tower has 46 floors (188 meters). It would be like 230 floors (with the middle part connecting everything).

 

If it was like 1 tower it be 940 meters. It would be bigger than both: Petronas Tower put together (though it would still have about 1/2 the amount of sq.ft). If it was two towers each one would be like 470 meters and it if was divided into 3 towers smaller towers of 313 meters.

 

Something to think about.

Ummm...I think you got your numbers wrong.

 

PVM is one major tower(45 floors + 3 smaller towers). 5PVM has 18 floors, 4PVM has 7 floors and 2-3 PVM has 6 floors. So we are looking at a grand total of about 76 floors, not 230.

1 PVM, true its one major tower but thing is if you look at it, it is connected together so it makes one major tower, instead of 4-5 seperate ones. If 1 PVM was divided by 4 sections as it is right now, but not having it all connected together. Which would actually make 4-5.

 

 

Imagine if all 4 towers that make 1 PVM (1 large tower) seperated.

I understand what you mean, but to split up 1 PVM into 4 towers would not be realistic. 1 PVM has Floor plates of 38,000 square feet. Split that into 4 and you'd have a floor plate of 9,500 sq. feet, which doesn't make sense in an office tower, especially one as big as 1 PVM. The Elevator shafts would take up 60 to 70% of the floor space, which is not very productive!

no fun

 

if each tower was 38000 sq.ft a floor then it would work. Oh well.

It would look like that:

belle job Elix. Tu as compris ce que je voulais dire! Une tour comme tu as fais serait carrément impossible à faire! Les cages d'ascenseur prendrait toute la place!
