The Zeppelin Park and Tower is a proposal by French architects Fabrice Quemeneur and Etienne Rouverand to bring back to life the golden era of Zeppelins as means of transportation. Highly used during the first half of the 20th century for commercial and military purposes, the blimps rapidly disappeared after the Hinderburg disaster in Lakehurst. Airplanes become the norm of transportation.
The main concept behind this proposal is to create Zeppelin Towers in major global cities. These skyscrapers would embrace their full potential of becoming modern transportation nodes and reduce green house gases emissions linked to airplanes. The towers’ plinth is fully equipped with commercial and recreational areas for the city.
