Why are projects in China so damn mysterious? :)

no more pics. the whole project include a hotel a shopping mall and a office building. The hotel JW Marriott completed in 1999 45 floors. The shopping mall and office building started in 2004,the company want lease the 50 thousand sq.m shopping mall first, so they have enough money to finish whole project, the 375m office building's groundwork just be completed. Now, a department store called Xinguangsanyue may hire the shopping mall.

OK, thanks for the info :)

beautiful box!

wow very ncie!

someone share these pics when can see the Marriott is rising now. this part is 357m building not the shopping mall, look at steely bones, that remind me a super skyscraper is under construction.

Well, finally... one can´t help but feel sceptical about projects taking so long to take shape.
Thanks, metallin, do you know when they were taken?

Great building, it's really high!

i'm afraid everyone know this building as much as me. IMO, they were taken recently. i came to that building site last winter, it is quite different now.

a classy affair :)

huge though

someone said the 50 thousand shopping mall include two department stores one called XinGuang Sanyue come from Taiwan, other one is Hualian come from Beijing and a famous brand LVMH. so i think they have enough money now

this picture shoted at about end of February or beginning of March, i found it yesterday and people said its time may be 1st March.
http://files.photojerk.com/metallinestorm/01019EB9.jfif

and nice cars in the foreground too.

Neat, finally we can see this one rise.

and nice cars in the foreground too.
i think many mice cars must in JW Marriott's carbarn. look this, a photo about
beijing's hotel. i hope i can have a BMW or Benz car one day. I hear a good news, the company loan 5 billion RMB( about 600 million US ddollars) form Bank add shopping mall's rent, this big box must rise very quick.

The little tower is fugly, but the taller structure is nice.

http://files.photojerk.com/metallinestorm/00DFD3E2.jfif

the new tower looks very tall, compared with the tower on the left

The little tower is fugly, but the taller structure is nice.

Amazing pictures!!!! The building is very very nice, a sharp and elegant design.

very very bad news! during these days workers dismantled this pity building which just had 7 floors. no one know the exact reason, some one said it had quality problem and some said the company changed the plan, has some hight but different inner structure.

I heard Marriott hopes this project becomes a symbol of Marriott in Central China,so it changes the old design a little.It's sure that it will be better. :)

Look,it's changed.

nice one
btw ive never head of this city before can some1 tell my about it?

nice one
btw ive never head of this city before can some1 tell my about it?
Chongqing City one of China four municipalities and one of China biggest industry base produce steel cars boats chemical production machine tool even weapons, biggest city in West of China. As China capital during the WW2.
imo, skyscraper woods is Chongqing landmark now. Yuzhong peninsula just 8 sq.km has nearly 300 skyscrapers over 100m(330ft) now, for whole city the skyscraper number is much bigger.

the result out:
new design of Marriott just has 320.4m, 72 floors.

So which one is the new design ?

the result out:
new design of Marriott just has 320.4m, 72 floors.

It's not true.

357m-77 storey doesn't change.

It's not true.

357m-77 storey doesn't change.


I'm very glad to see that. :)

It's not true.

357m-77 storey doesn't change.
really? 77 floors may add 5 floors under ground.

Tiger, you are right. The Beijing Third Construction Company officer said becuase of Asia-Pacific mayor summit conference will open in Chongqing their works are working hard at Chongqing Conference Center, so pause the Marriott and they will go on Marriott project from tomorrow. The design still 77 floors 357m, garden with glass wall at the top two floors and helicopter parking apron. I am sorry about wrong info i tell before.

Seeing how it will surpass the other Mariott building already makes me feel "WOW!"

By the way, Chongqing's density is very amazing!!!

its not that bad..

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y151/arnaudhe/01523C30.jpg

Thanks for the pics and info!!

The tower is great. Notice that it is going to be taller than Aon Center or John Hancock in Chicago for example, so we are speaking of a supertall!! And a beatiful one. Congratulations!!

I suppose it will become the tallest box in the world, if we don't count spires :-)

Chongqing rocks!
How many citizens does it have?

i love boxy buildings!

Chongqing rocks!
How many citizens does it have?
more than 6 million in chongqing city.

I love the density of the CBD. Much better IMO than spread out Pudong.

377m,77floors,will be finished in 700 days

great updates :okay:

Just wanted to ask so this will become World's Tallest Hotel?? Beating Burj al Arab Hotel in Dubai??

the hotel is just 180m ,correct?

also there is rose rotana coming up in Dubai, with 333m which will beat Burj Al Arab.

the world's tallest hotel? I think it's the Grand Hyatt in the Shanghai Jinmao Tower

He means a building that's all hotel, not just a part.

great updates :okay:

If it's a pure hotel building then yes

^^

I love the design. I can't wait to see this finished.

Again, have to say I really like this. Boxes can be great sometimes. The only thing is the colour doesn't seem nice. Maybe it'll look different in the end though. If it was darker it would be better I think

news alreadly here, thanks tigher and Childsh King. IMO, they didn't sure which kind of color is best, so that model just show the shape and height.

It looks really really really tall!,

the hotel is just 180m ,correct?

Yes, JW Marriott hotel is the lower building just 178m 45 floors. here are some pics about JW Marriott hotel Chongqing.

Boxy and very tall.

Wow, what an amazing design!
I'm stunned by the fact that spectacular scrapers are going up like this in every other Chinese city.

Dubai: See and learn! I prefer one quality tower like this over characterless quantity and height...

Chongqing is an awesome looking city. I agree that it looks dirty but it's dirty like New York City which has a very authentic look to it. Gotta love the old and the new together.

Doesn't look so low, so the new one will look really really tall!

most important is very very very bad weather, every day the weather is cloudy and rainly. i didn't saw sunshine after i came back to here about 10 days ago. i try to shot some new photos about buildings, but i didn't have any chance.

ANY UPDATES?

ANY UPDATES?


I'm wondering the same thing. This is one of my favorite buildings.

very nice, i like it

Does anyone live in Chongqing have pictures for an update. This is one of my favorite buildings under construction.

Can't wait to see this 1171ft building completed.

poeple ought to post more projects in chinese cities, just the amount of apartment construction woud flood this thread, not to mention all the office building as well. :rock:

i will back chongqing this june, but now no one supply the updata photos.
during these days, there are one bad news and a good news about this project. bad news is workers are still building groundwork and the schedule may change, good news is this skyscraper may over 500m.
some people work here said the company will add the height and add a 50 meters long mast without cancel the parking apron, so the total height is 500m.

fantastic building

You're saying that they're still doing groundwork like digging the hole and shoring up a foundation? I think any progress is a good thing.

Also you're saying that they want to build the roof up to 450 meters? I'm not sure what the mast they're going to use is for but I hope they're not going to just add a useless spire on top of this. It would be a dream come true if they raised the roof to 500m and kept the design as a flat top building like we've seen in previous models and renders.

extremely tall, any updates?

what can i say now, is "may be". i also ask the same question many times, but looks like one person has one news.

This cannot be a real picture. I visited Chongqing in october 2005 and the project was only 6 floors high. As I was told, they were going to destruct it all due to a structural error in the design and restart construction. This building won't be finished soon.

Oh! What a sad news!!!

last news, said the build company changed and the new company is sreaching construction material for it.

just incredible

BTW, CHONGQING is called "the mountain city" in China!

Now it rocks! so cool :)

ive got some uc pix
update later

Wow!! Chongqing is very much developed nowaday.

According to my calculation (http://homepages.ipact.nl/~egram/skylines.html), Chongqing rates as the 12th skyline in the world.

Chongqing is one of the most unique cities i have ever visted. Its mountainious location sets it apart from most other cities in china.

big big big news:MARRIOTT IFC is gong to be over 425m,not a jork,trust me,now its not decided yet,but when it does,ill post the ecxact info here

dont expect too much ,it wont rise up to 500m
maybe 425m,maybe 450m,these r possible

What is this stuff they seem to be demolishing? Looks like an old department store building.


To be honest this is my #1 favorite building that's under construction right now. I love the color and it's unique design at the top for a rectangular building.

According to my calculation (http://homepages.ipact.nl/~egram/skylines.html), Chongqing rates as the 12th skyline in the world.
do you use completed+u/c? i'll send you list for moscow then, later.

well just 350++ is way good enough. :)
now its 377m for sure

they thought about 377m+80m spire ,itll be 457m
but add a spire on a boxy skyscraper its too ugly ,so they give up spire
here is the ugly model

they enlarge the department store,LVMH.

I think it's good that they're enlarging it but it looks like a complete mess right now.


Is the tower supposed to be the tallest in Chongqing when it's completed? The WTCC looks taller in that last model you posted. I also agree that adding a spire would make this thing look ugly.

OMG,This is a flash of JW Marriott IFC,I love it so much,from my deep heart. :shocked:

http://jwmarriottifc.com/ifc/JW.WMV

Amazing video! :eek: Everybody should see it! :)

Only 72 storeys above ground, plus 5 storeys underground. so average floor height will be 5.23m, even taller than SWFC's 4.87m.

Wow the video is amazing.

It says "plan". I'm sure we would have known about it by now if it were u/c.

...but geezah! What a unique looking project. Not just because of the green aspect, but overall! :eek:

Dang! Very impressive. Hope they build it!

That looks AWESOME!!!:)

a very tall box in the skyline ^^. I like it too :)

What does the tower look like now?

sorry
these days ,its really hard to take the pix,because they dont let anybody get into le chantier

very nice :master:

magic mountains are amazing.
any actual construction photos of marriot centre?

as i said earlier,not easy to take even one pic
ill post it as soon as my friend manerge to do that

man too bad, would really love too see constant updates of this!

any updates? been 2 months

The height of this project has been officially raised to 398m, same height as Jialing Fanying project. Some mod please edit the title.

No updates, sorry. I think they stopped the works due to the height increase.

^^

That's awesome!!!!!

New proposed design, 398m!! Final design is not decided, only the height.
http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/9741/jwmarriott398mil6.jpg

2 meters more.....:sleepy:

I don't know. It's really boxy, and I like boxy.
But I kinda feel strange about having a hotel as the tallest.

its not a hotel
jw marriott hotel is already built for almost 10 years,its the shorter tower aside
marriott center is a office tower

nice pics Macpolo....never knew Chongqing could rival HK in terms of light show from downtown buildings...NICE :banana:

Does anyone notice that the builidings in the renders on the previous page are just direct copies of other buildings? One of them looks just like ICC and the other like the New York Times tower currently UC in NYC.

http://files.photojerk.com/macpolo/lzt/3.jpg


Don't they, or am I just seeing things?

I like it...the town look impresive...that's what i want to see in each town...quality...and good project..:)

yes,we made that,just for some fun

have they changed the design?

these 4 pix above your post is the new design

is it taller now or still the same height?

is it taller now or still the same height?

398m now

but they r still changing something

so this project is on hold

http://files.photojerk.com/metallinestorm/00DFD3E2.jfif
]

It's so sad they changed the design, this one looked perfect to me. :( :( :(

http://files.photojerk.com/macpolo/mc3.jpg

honestly i dont like the top
but i do think the cladding and the department store r so much better now

They ruined it. The 377m project looked great with that sexy green cladding, even despite of being just a box. New facade looks ugly to me.

Maybe I'll change my mind after seeing more realistic renders.
