[[Art Nouveau]] has left many architectural traces in Vienna. The [[Secession Building, Vienna|Secession building]], [[Karlsplatz Stadtbahn Station]], and the [[Kirche am Steinhof]] by [[Otto Wagner]] rank among the best known examples of Art Nouveau in the world. The [[Wiener Moderne]] shunned the use of extraneous adornment. The architect [[Adolf Loos]] is responsible for the [[Looshaus]] (1909), the Kärntner Bar (1908), and the [[Steiner House]] (1910). The [[Hundertwasserhaus]] by [[Friedensreich Hundertwasser]], designed to counter the clinical look of modern architecture, is one of Vienna's most popular [[tourist attraction]]s. [[File:Gasometer wien.jpg|thumb|Gasometer in Simmering]] In the 1990s a number of quarters were adapted and extensive building projects were implemented in the areas around [[Donaustadt]] and [[Wienerberg]]. Vienna has seen numerous architecture projects completed which combine modern architectural elements with old buildings, such as the remodeling and revitalization of the old [[Gasometer, Vienna|Gasometer]] in 2001. The [[DC Towers]] are located on the Northern bank of the Danube and were completed in 2013.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.skyscraperpicture.com/vienna.htm |title=Vienna's 10 tallest skyscrapers |publisher=Skyscraperpicture.com |date=13 May 2008 |access-date=13 June 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101130015638/http://skyscraperpicture.com/vienna.htm |archive-date=30 November 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=millenniumtower-vienna-austria |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070217064200/http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=millenniumtower-vienna-austria |url-status=dead |archive-date=17 February 2007 |title=Millennium Tower | Buildings |location=Vienna / |publisher=Emporis |access-date=19 May 2012}}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
