Anti-aircraft apartment

German ad exec Christian Boros is transforming a WWII anti-aircraft tower in Berlin into an art gallery and posh penthouse apartment. I look forward to some before and after photos. From Reuters:

(Boros) told Bild newspaper on Wednesday he fell in love with the seven-storey building, with reinforced concrete walls up to 2.6 metres (8 feet 6 inch) thick, after visiting a former disco inside the eyesore...

"It'll be like James Bond -- very cool with exposed concrete and glass," Boros said.
