More interesting buildings in Luanda


The big building under construction is the new office building for the state oil company.

I have heard rumors of several workers falling from the un-protected edges and of excessive unplanned foundation settlement, but they were not from people within the construction industry so I cannot confirm their authenticity. The yellowish derelict building on the right is the shot up former UNITA offices (UNITA and the MPLA were the main combatants in the civil war, with the MPLA controlling the cities and UNITA, the countryside. The MPLA is the biggest party in the present Government).
