    Data and description

    In the center of the largest housing estate in the socialist era in Budapest, the ‘skyscraper’, which rose out of the prefab jungle, was once known by locals, named after the neon signs, as the CSÉB or CASCO House, depending on which side they saw it from. At 70.9 meters, the sliding formwork Watertower House is still the tallest residential building in Budapest, with two-floor studio apartments at the top.
