The building has over 1,100 rooms, is 12 stories tall and has several underground levels. Impressive undoubtedly, it’s just a shame that much of Bucharest’s historic center including 30,000 residences and 28 churches had to make way for the project.

大厦拥有超过1100个房间，12层高，地下还有几层。毋庸置疑，大厦给人留下深刻印象，但惭愧的是，布加勒斯特的历史中心区，包括三万间民宅和28座教堂在内，都不得不为此建筑“让路”。
