LOL, it looks like a crossing between an upside-down Arc at Draycott and Paris' Tour Montparnasse ^ ^
Well, it's a bit difficult to judge from this image but I think Millenia Tower is still better than this (even I don't quite like it). This design would look terribly outdated in today's skyline. Especially with that color.

great picture !!!! for analysis :)


on the right of the image is benjamin shears bridge....but behind it shows plenty of buildings ....which isnt the case now ........right now its turning into a golf course and also housing the Singapore Flyer.....or did i get hte image wrongly ? :)

maybe that was the master plan back then? to have a town near marina bay ? :runaway: and yeah the current marina centre and mellinia walk looks better :)

I think it's actually Beach Road that you can see.
I can make out the Plaza Park Royal and Golden Mile Complex.

that proposed but not built building? instead Millenia buildings are built... freakly speaking, Millenia stuff looks nicer then that... but according to skyscraperpage.com, Rahardja Centre is 343meters... it would be interesting if it was really built...

However tall it is, it makes my stomach growl. It looks like a chocolate bar...

LOL, yes at first when i looked at the pic I thought it is a building from Dubai. I think if we had this building, history would change. Firstly the height limits would not be 280 ,secondly, there is an extra chocolate for me to eat... :cheers:

The first thing I thought when I saw it was how 1970s it looks!! Especially with all that brown glass, ugh I'm glad we haven't got that on the skyline. It certainly would have been impressive but beautiful... no.

I remember I did a drawing of it for SSP before, but I had no idea how tall it was and how the facade looked like, so it was wierd.:D
