I really like the contrast in this photo of the older-style apartment buildings in the foreground with the Commerzbank Tower looming in the background.

The Commerzbank Tower is the tallest building in the EU. Frankfurt, like many European cities, sees an odd mesh of very old buildings meeting very modern ones in the centers of cities. Many cities have taken great strides to rehabilitate those buildings still intact after WWII, and build new, gorgeous buildings around them.

It would seem like a serious clash, but, it works. Beautifully.
