ZaHiRnYa??? June 15th, 2004, 08:44 AM Baq...how can you consider "Vision City" as a completed skyscraper :?
baqthier June 15th, 2004, 08:55 AM Project Phase 1 completed lar..those 3 towers lah
ZaHiRnYa??? June 15th, 2004, 09:00 AM Yeah...but that is only part of the whole development. :D

samson June 15th, 2004, 10:31 AM may i know how long the times need to take for build a high rises normally???
THT-United June 15th, 2004, 11:44 AM http://www.matsuo-bridge.co.jp/images/sakuhin/buildings/jpg/dayabumi.jpg
Cool pix! Dayabumi surely was completed within 2 years, since the frame is steel instead of the usual concrete... Even the cladding is in place, considering the building is only halfway-up...
Speaking of steel buildings, other significant ones include The Weld Tower, Suria KLCC, and Maju Perdana Tower (the taller one)...

szehoong June 15th, 2004, 01:49 PM I am glad I witness the construction of Empire Tower, KL Tower and PTT all from the comfort of my classroom! :D
Lucky for me, my class are always on the skyline-side of the school and I always chooses to sit by the window hehehe :happy:

Baqthier, how do I upload the pics?
1) Upoad pics which you have to a pic host. I recommend this one -->
http://www.photobucket.com
2) Then type URL address of the pic(example: http://www.bumerang-tourism.com.tr/images/kuala-lumpur.jpg)
;)
As for the pics which are already placed online, no need to upload them just copy their address and do number 2) (some websites don't allow their pics to be linked though)
TYW June 19th, 2004, 12:43 PM :eek: 1st pic of KLIA looks HUGE!!

I like the KLIA pix... Never realized that the aeroporto is that huge during construction!
THT-United June 19th, 2004, 04:10 PM http://www.xpphotoalbum.com/data/500/9797sei9603.jpg?973
Look at the number of scaffoldings used in the construction of the curved roof... So many!

Blabbyboy January 6th, 2005, 12:50 AM maju perdana looks great but i never saw it on the skyline - where is it located? i think they should stop insisting on putting useless helipads on top of great scrapers and spoiling them!
