Kenyans have left amazed after images of a skyscraper with glass walkway in Nairobi emerged.
At Le Mac towers in Nairobi’s Westlands, there is a transparent 126 metres-high footpath. From the glass floor, you can view Nairobi’s top-line as unbroken green tree cover.
The amazing glass walkway is located at the 24th floor of the building.
Also available on the building’s 24th floor is a rooftop swimming pool, gym, and children’s play area.
The property has offices on six floors and residential apartments on 14 floors. The 23rd floor will have a spa and a business centre.
Despite the beautiful view of the Nairobi from the building’s balcony, many Kenyans seem to shudder at the mere thought of the glass walkway.
“You no longer have to travel to spend a fortune to walk on a terrifying glass floor or bridge as it is right here in Nairobi. It is a 60mm thick see-through glass floor standing out around the property and is meant to beat the fear for heights,” Ravi Vasta, the project’s developer, told Business Daily.
The building has cost Sh 4 billion and is set to revolutionize the building space in kenya.
“We flew the architects to Dubai to see the concept as well as facilitated meetings with globally accomplished architects as we wanted to give Kenya a unique product that is globally competitive,” he added.
Here is how Kenyans reacted:
The building is set to open in October.
