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.

大廈擁有超過1100個房間，12層高，地下還有幾層。毋庸置疑，大廈給人留下深刻印象，但慚愧的是，布加勒斯特的歷史中心區，包括三萬間民宅和28座教堂在內，都不得不為此建筑“讓路”。
