Centro Financiero Confinanzas, Venezuela
From series “Famous unfinished buildings ”
There is a notable unfinished building in the city of Caracas in Venezuela. This is Centro Financiero Confinanzas. It is also known to many travelers under the unofficial name of the Tower of David. Construction of the high-rise building began in 1990. The famous architect Enrique Gomez was the author of its project. David Brillembourg was one of the main investors in the project since construction began. Construction had to stop after his death in 1994.
The high-rise building is one of the three tallest buildings in Venezuela. It was in disrepair until 2007. Poor residents of the city began to settle in it later. So Centro Financiero Confinanzas is often called "vertical slums" today. According to some sources, more than 700 families live in it permanently. Small shops and various workshops are open in the unfinished skyscraper.
