I haven’t been in Amman’s Shmeisani district for a while. Yesterday I passed through Commodore street and, from afar I saw the gleaming new glass facade of Digital City, a 17,000 square meters electronics mall that has been under construction for the past 2 years or so.
The facade’s steel and glass construction looks impressive. It huge too!
That intersection in Shmeisani is dominated by glass and steel clad buildings. Together with the traffic lights and street signs it looks like something out of a video game, don’t you think?

I hope that parking space is accounted for
one of the very best looking intersections in town. It looks urban, professional, well built and designed, less random. However, the electric wire is a visual destortion, I wonder when will they consider underground wiring.
Isn’t it neat? Ithought it was pretty impressive too!
Wow, they’ve come right along with the construction. My aunts live just down the street from that building, and I would watch the slow progress being made every time I went to visit my aunts.
Looks impressive.
I hate it. I live across the corner and Shmesani has become nightmarish thanks to the flocking of steel and glass. There’s the one next to the Meridien, these, a few up by Culture Street, etc., and I think they don’t suit their surroundings well at all.
They look out of place to me, as if Grendaizer grabbed it from somewhere else and dumped it randomly.
And what’s wrong with Grendizer??
must… throw.. stone!
Does anyone know who the architect is by any chance?
