connecting Vienna's 22nd district across the Danube with the main city. The bridge holds the U1 subway/metro line. The 'Hochhaus Neue Donau' behind the bridge has 33 floors, and was finished in 2002.
This bookstore, in the pedestrian Kohlmarkt street in the center of Vienna, is one of the few stores still there since my student days [n.b. the rest are upscale, like Tiffany, Burberry, Dior, etc]. The portal was designed in 1912 by Adolf Loos, using Freudian theories that say that the recessed entry and the indirect lighting cause a subconscious urge to enter the store. Works for me (or any other book store, for that matter).
