Great shot you have here. Great tonality and composition. It reminds me my time in Frankfurt am Main!

The barge gives a sense of balance to the towering buildings. Good shot. :-)

Nice, I really like the strong lines. How did you do the B/W conversion?

Thanks for all the comments! Very motivating.
If you are interested in the orginal picture:
https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=130821

@kprince: I choosed the picture for a little Photoshop demo to show a friend what you could get out of an ordinary RAW photo. So what you see here is the result of Histogram work and channel mixing for the B&W. The sky was on a seperate layer to archive a higher contrast and a more dramatic look. As you can see I didn't spend that much time to mask the skyline properly from the sky (it was just a demo). This coould be done a litlle bit better I think.
