Sokos Hotel Viru
Sokos Hotel Viru is a hotel in Tallinn, Estonia. Originally owned by Intourist and called Viru Hotel, it was first opened on 5 May 1972. The hotel building was the first high-rise building in Estonia. Today, the hotel is connected to the shopping centre, Viru Keskus, and is owned by Sokos Hotels. The Soviet Union gave the project of Viru Hotel to the construction company Repo Oy from Savonlinna, Finland in 1969 and construction of the hotel started in July. However, the company went bankrupt in the middle of construction after a fire broke out on the top floors of the hotel in December 1969, so the state had to find another construction company, and financial backing for the project. The new company Haka Oy finished the hotel in May 1972. The project resulted in a new construction project in Pääjärvi that same year, and later new construction projects in Enso and Kostamus (all these being in the Republic of Karelia). During the Soviet era, the 23rd floor of the hotel hou ...

Their density facilitates interaction between people, government organisations and businesses, sometimes benefiting different parties in the process, such as improving efficiency of goods and service distribution. Historically, city-dwellers have been a small proportion of humanity overall, but following two centuries of unprecedented and rapid urbanization, more than half of the world population now lives in cities, which has had profound consequ ...
