The Athens Riviera Tower is being built. The construction of the 200-meter tall 50 floor skyscraper, is being developed on the site of the former Elliniko airport and is aspired to be the tallest residential seaside skyscraper in the Mediterranean. In the meantime Greece is at rock bottom in social housing, while the cost of buying or renting a house is rising exponentially and far outpacing any growth in incomes.
