SaigoneseKid, you're moderator. Rite? So you must have your own opinion. Do the right thing that 's easy for users to view. Xem 1 thread dài tới mấy chục trang, ai sẽ có thời gian ngồi duyệt wa hết... Le que dự án thì cũng ok, nhưng thread dài thì phải tạo cái mới. Chuyện đó đương nhiên. Còn ai muốn merge lại, thì ok. Moderator làm như vầy. Merge cái thread này với thread cũ lại. Rồi tất cả những cái nào lan man, moderator thấy cái nào merge đựơc thì merge lại hết đi. Dạo sau này nhiều cái thread na ná nhau xuất hiện đầy. Chẳng hạn hen: cái Latest Hanoi Pics với cái
Panorama Photos of HN-Old-Square Credit to Thinh Le của pipapipo và Hanoi - Ciputra International City của
tq . Cái Hanoi Projects gộp những cái thread sau vào: Golden Westlake Executive Residences (25fl.)/Video , Hanoi của tq, Hà Nội sắp được mở rộng-Hanoi expansion plan của wantuhoa, Cau Giay area projects, Hanoi của babydoll, Video: Hanoi, Vietnam Metro Project của BetterFuture...
Còn nữa nhưng kể ra mệt wá. Mọi ngừơi thấy sao? Vậy cũng đựơc mà ^_^

January 19th, 2007, 04:17 PM

some can be merged together....but GW, Ciputra, Metro etc. should have all their own threads...there are enough materials to fill them

My job here, including clean up the forum, merging similar threads, deleting spam..., is to providetthe best visualisation for users, who may wish to locate the right topic and to follow the latest updates easily. I will listen to you guys to tell me which way to manage it bestt, so plz pm me regarding your own opinions.

I think we should have at least 2 threads for Saigon: one for new projects and one for updates (mostly by milky:) ). Large projects can have their own threads.
@lovesigon:just relax ^ ^

Remember to pm me about issues concerning the forum. Thanks!

I'm saying vn should spell out the name of what it is that their company is doing, not playing letters...vinashin =>should be at least VN Ship Building Industry....or ...vinataba=> VN Tobaco....cause sometime it is hard to tell what the company is about

Siddude

January 23rd, 2007, 03:03 AM

LOL.. Good observation. Vina this, Vina that is gay! :) Yea, they should be a little bit more creative and cosmopolitan in name formation. I know from the Japanese industrialization experience, they consulted international consultant to name certain companies like Panasonic. The consultants said this name was very phonetic and easily pronounce by most people on earth. VN should hire some these language consultants.

it doesnt look so bad eh.
Hung Vuong plaza is mostly a residental building,so no way it can reach 150m/30st (5m/st????) only office buidling can reach that height,or maybe they will add a long spire. I think it'll be the same height as Thuan Kieu plaza.

Bason is a historic site (old French arsenal plus the Ton Duc Thang works or something...) i think they should better leave it for low-rise development (old harbour with cranes, restaurant and parks...) rather than build a supertall there

And i think City Council will not let any supertall (over 60F) to be built in the Westside anytime soon.

too me...saigon trade center looks like an oversized bottle of 'dau gio xanh' (con o') brand with a red cap on top...and i never like the smell of that medication...makes me feel nauseous and sick when ever i'm next to one...maybe that's the reason i hate that bldg...

cant wait for your tet edition of saigon gallery milky

DUH! "Dau gio xanh" is used by ...sick people so no wonder you feel...sick when you smell it:) ! Actually, a lot of people in VN (especially southern) are addicted to that smell or similar smell of other ointments. I never like the smell of those things myself. They remind me of the time when I was young, getting motion sickness in the bus from Can Tho to SG... That smell. combined with the diesel smell of the bus, brought the worst feeling, I tell ya!

But not liking SG Center just because of the shape of the building is not fair :) You have great imagination though!

not 10 billion for 1 building, 10 billions for the whole site. If ya looked at the map Bason is located in district 1 but has parts in Binh Thanh too.
so 10 billions will include the upgrading of the Nhieu Loc canal, and maybe relocation o the current port too.

hi everybody. just heard that an unknown foreign investor submitted a huge project in Ba son site to the municipal government. pls see some info below:
- Name: Bason City 21
- Total area: 22 hectares
- Investment capital: US$10 billion
- Total GFA: 2.5 million sqm
- Including office buildings, condos, retails, ect
- A 88-storey building.

Does anybody know any other info related to this project? who is the investor? How is the People Committee's thought?

Hope this scenario will come true soon

Drawing a new face for HCM City’s central area

VietNamNet Bridge – The urban design of the HCM City’s central area has become too old to fit the modern life, which needs a replacement. But, the question is, how to get a suitable design?

According to Nguyen Trong Hoa, Director of the HCM City Programming and Architecture Department, many investors have expressed their willingness to make investments in the city’s central area. He revealed that a foreign investor is lobbying for the project on a modern urban center on the 22ha Ba Son area. The investor intends to turn the most expensive land area in HCM City into a modern urban center, called Bason City 21. Bason City 21 is expected to be a complex of high-rise office buildings, high-grade apartments, trade and service area and a 88-storey building, the highest one and the symbol of the city.

Nevertheless, Mr Hoa said that the city’s authority does not know what to say to the investor. The problem lies in the fact that the big construction works cannot be approved before a detailed urban design is completed. In fact, several high-rise buildings have been erected recently, but the city’s authority has decided to stop licensing construction projects in the city’s central area until the town programming is drawn up.

How much more time will the investors have to wait? The city’s leadership wants to have the detailed urban design soon, but unluckily, this job cannot be done overnight. Mr Hoa said that it will take six months at least to organize a contest on urban design for the HCM City’s central area, and it will take some more months to negotiate about the prices with contractors. In order to ‘cut corners’, i.e to shorten the process, it would be better to organize a contest and then organize auctions to choose the best price solutions. As such, according to Mr Hoa, the investors will have to wait one year at least.

However, Mr Hoa said that one year proves to be too long for investors which will make them give up the games. Architect Luu Trong Hai has warned that if investors have to wait too long, they will leave for other places, and the opportunities to attract investment will be missed. Meanwhile, architect Nguyen Truong Luu compared the investor as a hen who needs a nest for laying eggs. If the hen cannot find out a nest here, in HCM City, she will leave to find other places or lay eggs halfway and eggs may get broken.

In fact, opinions still vary about what the HCM City’s central area will look like. Experts said that all the works are very complicated, even the organizing a contest on urban design. It is said that in programming the Thu Thiem new urban area, the city’s authority had to hire a foreign consultancy firm, which is responsible for the contest only. And the value of the consultancy contract reached several hundred thousands dollars. Meanwhile, it would be much more difficult to design the city’s central area than the Thu Thiem new urban area.

i dont get why vn like twin buildings so much...like hung vuong plaza, everich, palace bldg next to everich...they should conserve space and build between the twin buildings to gain more area...what a waste

Skidlin,

My guess is that the space between the twin buildings provides the airy feel needed for the residents. If not for this space, the building would just be one huge concrete & glass block which might not be aesthetically pleasant.

The link below will take you to see another project with, guess what, TWIN buildings :-)

ey which corner of Ho con rua will they build that new building? the 6 storeys apartment building with many coffee shops?

I just thought of something great for Bason site. they complaint about Saigon doesn't have enough 5 star hotels for the growing number of tourists.......I say use that whole site and build 5000 - 10.000 rooms hotel........give them all the luxuries that a 5-star hotel has.......tennis court, biggest swimming pool, biggest shopping mall, biggest resort too....that area is big enough for nice nice resort along the river.

the thing is.....in central downtown with many nice buildings and parks, you don't have big locatiom, if you go outside of district 1 , you will have space but all the VIPs tourists will have to look down at all the tubehouses and slums......

Bason area is the best....1 side is the river, the other side is the zoo, the 3 side is district 1....and the 4th side will face the new saigon Manor and saigon pearl.

I tell ya Saigon needs to think big, dream big........think of the impossible...that whole site reserve for hotel is the best

yeah saigon has its own style...this is how they're building the infrastructure.......digging up the streets several times just to put phone lines, then they forget the electricity line, so they digging up the same street again....then after that they realized they forget the sewage system, so they digging up again.

when it comes to bridges..they have to have cracks like Nguyen Huu can,.,.or holes like Binh Trieu bridge....ooooohhhh many more strange bridges in vietnam.....go to tuoitre and see

and in Vn they take atleast 1-10 yrs to promise you a highrise building before they build ya one.

that's how Vietnam avoid turning into other asian countries......they're definitely have their own style.

I don't see anything different in those tall buildings in Saigon Hanoi compare to other cities in asia........they're all the same dang multi concrete blocks

1st solution: keep the park, build a 6 storeys office building, keep the 5 villas.

2nd solution: keep the park, build offices building at same height as Saigontourist parkson.

The Eden mall will not be planned for any high rise.

VietNam city planners should learn to plan a city, town, province systematic way. It shouldn't allow some owners to decide how their houses should be build. This will allow some tall, some short, some red, some blue, some bamboo, some brick, some clay etc. to be built in a non-organized maners. You can vizualized this as someone who has unorganized, criss-cross set of teeth. It is not pretty at all.

In order to design housing, first of all, planners need to decide how many people will reside in a certain area of land. Let say, I want to build housing in an area of 20 acres (~ 5 hecta) of land, within this size of land, I can build approximately let say 500 tube houses (4 pp each = 2000 pp), 100 single houses (4 pp each = 400 pp), and 5 apartment hi-rises (250 pp each = 1250 pp). Sum up, the land will reside about 3000 residents.

Next, the planners will implement into the land for roads, trees, playgrounds, schools, parking lot etc. then, they have to figure out how the houses will be build, what kind of architecture will be used to develope it. Of course, the design, the colours will be constant throughout the area.

Multiple developments as such will make up a town, multiple towns make up a province, a parkway is built to connect towns together. A highway is built to connect province with the city.

A city is considered a town, in a bigger picture with many buildings, where as a town is for people to live, the city is for people to work. The city can be built in the center of towns where the beltway that circles the city is the main road to enter the city. The highway is connected to the beltway.

This is a basic paradigm, that city planners need to implement in order for a modern society to form. Of course, many other things such as sewage system, electricity, city lights, transportation etc. are the sub groups that planners can not leave out before building such a developement.

Nguyend, in my opinion, Chinese cities today are the model for the paradigm of planning that you describe.

I hope that Vietnamese planners will allow choice and diversity of architecture and types of housing and color in their planning.

I agree with layer with the idea of diversity in architecture with a condition that the architecture should be constant for each project; it can be diversify only by project. In other word, I don't agree that a project or development has so many architectures which seems so odd. I also believe that HCM city will have the majority skyscrapers with 30 stories or higher. At this moment, I only see HCM city with low-rise buildings and they are so evenly built thru. out, instead of very high buildings intertwine with lower ones. That is what I call a modern city.

What areas downtown Saigon would you recommend to a develoer? What areas should a developer avoid?

As much as I would like to protect old saigon or at least the historic sections (not quarter, unlike Hanoi, Saigon doesn't have that no more) historic sections in district 1, 3 and 5

I think we're too late with all the concrete blocks pilling up there in central. My solution is build anywhere, at any height no restriction, but if you're going to build something near all the historic buildings atleast try to blend in with the surrounding.

we can't protect and build saigon like Paris, then follow the essence of old New York. 30-40 storey highrises with neo-classical, gothic beaux-art style
my theory is if you don't have a uniform city then give them silhouette, shape and dimension. That's why New York in the early 20th is so nice and succesful despite tall buildings standing next to low structures.

see I would like them to gather up all the Saigon manor, ruby tower, paragon, Everrich..all the projects with old architectural feature and build them right in district 1 near all the historic buildings.

and ended everything right there...don't continue with those old styles outside of the historic sections, Saigon is a young city, we need somthing new and refreshing. I like to see futuristic towers like Shanghai, I want to see no more concrete blocks or neo-classical towers springing up everywhere in saigon.

if they know how to blend well architecturally they can build 40-50 storeys towers right next to the opera house or the city hall with no problem...like I said a city needs to have diamension and silhouette.

as far as where to build and where to avoid. That's not the important issue. my main concern is we need space around the historic center. If I get the chance to speak to all the architects and city planners in Saigon I will tell them to knock down the Rex hotel block and the Eden block right across the street and give the cityhall a full square.

next thing is fix up the architecture on the block opposite from the post office, or buy out that block from the church and turn that into a park.

the next area is Ben Thanh. It's a historic area, the market tower is enough to represent the city of Saigon. the shophouses surrounded the market have significant history too, but since they've destroyed those houses mercilessly.......why not delete them altogether?

I want to clear away all the blocks surrounding the Ben Thanh market and turn them into small parks or large public squares, give Ben Thanh its place that the market deserves, no more garbages, crowds, only a big market surrounds by green parks.

and the block opposite from the market they plan to build twin 40 storeys tower?....I want to clear that and turn it into a park too.......so standing in the Ben Thanh roundabout you can see all the historic buildings in view: ben thanh market, Saigon railway office, Saigon fine art museum etc.....

clear away the fences around all the reunification palace, national librarry, saigon's supreme court, all the museums. all those fences wasted so many public space while Christmas, New Year people get clogged up in the downtown with nowhere to move.

not to mention if you clear away the fences you will stop people from urinating. I don't think anyone has the guts to pee straight at the National library, but now they do because there's the fence. That area around the court house, saigon museum, libary should be very nice and relax, but its smell full of urine

once they've cleared all that areas above......they don't have to stear away from anything or any place......by then the central section is large enough for any development.

I appreciate Mr. Bang's comprehensive and thoughtful vision for Saigon, and I agree with most of his ideas, especially the idea that "a city needs to have dimension and silhouette."

I disagree with his idea that the downtown districts should become historical sections where all new buildings match the style of the old colonial structures. I am afraid the result of that will be a Disneyland, not a world-class commercial city. I guess if we followed this idea, then the commercial center of Saigon would shift to Thu Thiem, leaving the current downtown for tourists.

I enjoy the vitality of Saigon because of its vibrant mix of old and new, commercial mixed with housing, colonial architecture representing the history of the city, and new high-rise buildings representing its present and future. The architecture of today is built upon the knowledge of the past, but shows the way to the future, not the past. It is more interesting to me to be able to walk around a Saigon and be able to appreciate its past in the colonial buildings (wich should continue to be protected), and see its present in contempory high-rise buildings, and see the future in increasing commercial density.

I also feel that architecture represents the contemporarty state of a society and its people. Colonial architecture represents what Europeans imposed upon Asia based upon European values. The old achitecture now gives us pleasure because of the evocative memories it engenders. Present-day and future architecture should represent the values of a growing Asian nation, existing within the context of a globalized world. And architecture should represent the techniques available in its time for construction. Colonial architecture represents how buildings could be built in those days. Contemporary architecture should increasingly represent what the computer and prefabricated construction assembies will allow. Building fake representations of the past retards the intellectual growth of civilization.

The example new buildings with old features that you cite: "Saigon manor, ruby tower, paragon, Everrich.." represent to me the worst in architecture possible today. I can't imagine anyone feels they represent Vietnam and its creative people.

I agree. that's what I've been saying too. Buildings reflect history of countries. A lot of Asian countries have the typical boxy highrises, like Tokyo, Seoul, China's cities, and the rests of SEA are simply because Asia experienced its growth relatively late compare to Europe and certain parts of USA.

Most of their cities were built from scratch,unlike those in VN.It's very difficult to re-plan all the cities in a short time,esp big cities like saigon & hanoi.I think the best way is to keep the old center like it is and try to improve it,and build many new urban area w the model like Singapore.

** KEPPEL LAND PLANS TO BUILD APARTMENT IN HO CHI MINH CITY **
13 March 2007

Singapore property developer Keppel Land plans to build over 1,500 apartments in Vietnam's southern business hub of Ho Chi Minh City under a joint venture with a Vietnamese partner, the company said Tuesday.

The housing project requires total investment capital of 106 million US dollars and is located in the popular residential area of An Phu Ward which is a 15-minute drive to the city centre, Keppel Land said in a statement.

Keppel Land's wholly-owned subsidiary, Keppel Land Estate, will take up a 55% stake in the joint venture while local partner, property developer Tien Phuoc Co., will own the remaining 45%.

The project has already secured planning approval from the relevant authorities, it said.

"Vietnam's recent entry into the World Trade Organisation and continued strong economic performance will translate into greater demand for quality housing in prime locations," said Ang WeeGee, director for regional investments at Keppel Land.

Keppel Land expects to build 1,500 to 1,600 apartments on the 4.8 hectare (11.86 acres) site.

The property developer is the real estate arm of Singapore conglomerate Keppel Corp which has a diversified business portfolio including interests in offshore marine and engineering.

I remembered reading some time last year CapitaLand (Singapore largest developer) has got the Investment Licence and would develop a condo project (1,100 units) in An Phu together with Vietnamese partners (Phu Gia and Thien Duc - never heard of these 2 names before). It also announced that sales launch was slated for 1st quarter of 2007. Please share with me if you have any news about this development.

** SINGAPORE JV TO BUILD SOUTHERN METRO RESIDENTIAL PROJECT **
Ha Dong
Thanh Nien
11 December 2006

Singapore-based CapitaLand Ltd has entered a joint venture (JV) agreement with a Ho Chi Minh City property developer for a US$70 million luxury apartment project in the city.

Under the agreement inked late last week, CapitaLand will set up a joint venture with Saigon South Development Corp (Sadeco) to build 600 high-end apartments in Phu My Hung residential area of District 7.

The project, which covers a 21,000 sqm area, is expected to meet housing demand from a growing community of foreign professionals and Vietnam’s increasingly affluent families.

CapitaLand – Southeast Asia’s largest property developer – will obtain a 70 percent stake or $14 million of the total registered capital in the $20 million venture.

The balance of the venture is held by Sadeco, site developer of over 10 projects covering 700ha in Phu My Hung.

The JV is expected to start work on the project over the next six months and complete it within 30 months.

The apartment project is CapitaLand’s second residential development in HCMC.

Earlier this year, the company was licensed to form another joint venture to develop a 23,000 sqm residential site in An Phu Ward of District 2.

Construction of this 1,000 home-residence is estimated to cost $100 million in total, and is subject to a 50-year lease.

CapitaLand holds an indirect 80% stake in the joint venture, in line with its strategy to be a major player in regional property development.

The remaining 20% would be held in equal proportion by two Vietnamese companies, Phu Gia Real Estate & Commercial Construction Co. and Thien Duc Trading-Construction Co.

About 300 of the homes in District 2 are scheduled to be built in the first quarter of 2008.

CapitaLand didn't give financial details for the project.

Quy hoạch đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm

Ngày 12/3, Thủ tướng có công văn đồng ý trước mắt lập quy hoạch chi tiết tỷ lệ 1/500 hệ thống hạ tầng kỹ thuật chính toàn bộ khu đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm, xét theo đề nghị của UBND TP HCM, Bộ Xây dựng, Bộ Kế hoạch Đầu tư.

Theo đó, UBND TP HCM có quyền quyết định hình thức lựa chọn nhà thầu tư vấn lập quy hoạch chi tiết tỷ lệ 1/500, lập dự án đầu tư hệ thống hạ tầng kỹ thuật chính khu đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm và lập nhiệm vụ thiết kế, tổ chức thi quốc tế cụm dự án quảng trường trung tâm, công viên bờ sông Sài Gòn và cầu đi bộ khu đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm.

Diện tích khu trung tâm đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm quy hoạch rộng 737 ha, trong đó khu đô thị phát triển mới rộng 657 ha và khu đô thị chỉnh trang 80 ha. Trong khu đô thị phát triển mới sẽ có 130.000 dân cư ổn định và khoảng 1 triệu khách vãng lai.

Đối tượng của 130.000 dân cư ổn định có thể sẽ do cơ chế thị trường quyết định. Theo quy hoạch đã được duyệt, chỉ có khu lõi trung tâm chính là được xây dựng cao ốc từ 10 tầng đến tối đa 40 tầng, các khu khác được khống chế từ 32 tầng trở xuống.

80 ha khu đô thị chỉnh trang sẽ nằm ngoài khu quy hoạch được Thủ tướng Chính phủ phê duyệt, nhưng được UBND TP quyết định “ghép” vào khu trung tâm đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm. Trên bản đồ quy hoạch, đó là mảnh đất nối nội thành TP HCM hiện tại (thuộc địa bàn quận Bình Thạnh) với bán đảo Thủ Thiêm.

Khu đô thị chỉnh trang này sẽ phải đảm bảo hạ tầng kỹ thuật, nối kết được với bán đảo và có một kiến trúc xây dựng hài hòa với khu quy hoạch mới bên Thủ Thiêm. UBND TP đã giao cho Sở Quy hoạch - Kiến trúc chủ trì, làm việc với các chủ đầu tư hiện có khoảng 10 dự án đã được phê duyệt để xây dựng theo đúng quy hoạch điều chỉnh.

Vì là một trong năm công trình mang tính đòn bẩy của TP HCM trong 5 năm tới, Ban quản lý đầu tư xây dựng khu đô thị mới Thủ Thiêm sẽ xây dựng chương trình chi tiết 5 năm. Thời gian thực hiện theo quy hoạch dự kiến là 20 năm với 4 giai đoạn phát triển.

Các chính sách kêu gọi đầu tư sẽ thông thoáng, hấp dẫn hơn các khu đô thị khác với cơ chế chính sách đặc biệt, có thể rút ngắn thời gian thực hiện xuống còn 10-12 năm nếu sớm có các chính sách thu hút đầu tư. Từ nay đến 2010 có thể thực hiện được 30-50% khối lượng đầu tư.

wat the heck,imo i think it's better to restrict the height limit in the old CBD,and build as high as possible on the other side.Besides,most of the big cities when they have the height restrict,they usually use measurement unit (m),not count the storeys becoz for instance,a 40s building can have different height,can be 120m or as tall as that one in Riyald (>300m,Saudi Arabia)

The old CBD won't be a "central business district" much longer if height limits there are too restrictive to allow construction of high-quality office towers and hotels. Assuming the city encourages relocation of the CBD to Thủ Thiêm, I note that the Sasaki master plan imposes limits on height that are also too restrictive. HCMC is limiting itself as a global financial center.

I would say if you can't build up then build down...make saigon with thu thiem as the first city of have the deepest buildings underground...plus it keeps the heat away when the city is close to the equator....some other advantages for underground buildings are no wear and tear from outside weather, no need for exterior maintenance and decoration, have a green city with lots of bright blue sky

are you kidding? you willing to go down?
right now they're trying to save power....and your solution is asking for double or tripple the amount of electricity

it's not very healthy to go down...don't forget fire, flooding or terrorism
and not to mention VN soil is filled with the deads....from the battles thousand years ago to last year.

going down below the ground you will meet lots of ghosts and nobody wants that

Malaysia's Berjaya Invests in Ho Chi Minh City Monorail Projects

HANOI, March 27 Asia Pulse - Malaysia's Berjaya Group has decided to invest in two monorail projects in Ho Chi Minh City.
The Memorandum of Understanding to this effect was signed on March 25 in the presence of Mayor Le Hoang Quan.

One of the two railways is to connect Ho Chi Minh City with the Quang Trung Software Park and the other to the National Highway No. 50.

The Malaysian giant has also signed a contract with the Ky Hoa Company Ltd. to build a financial and commercial centre in district 10.

The project will also comprise office buildings, hotels, shops and tourist services of five-star standards.

Theo tui nghĩ thì chắc cũng phải 200-300 cái thì mới được

Tui vào cái diễn đàn này cũng đã gần 4 năm mà mỗi năm tui chưa thấy thành phố nào của VN xây được ít nhất 5 cái tòa nhà ít nhất là 30 tầng cả ngọai trừ cái tòa nhà Manor. Lui tới cũng chỉ tòan là "dự án" với đến hình vẽ nhưng tui cũng không ngạc nhiên là vì VN vẫn còn là nước nông nghiệp chủ yếu

Thực tế thì tui thấy bắt đầu từ năm 2010-2020, mỗi năm VN có thể xây được khỏang 5 cái cao ốc ít nhất là 30 tầng, con số này rất có thể

Chỉ cần thêm 10 cái từ 200-300m, 20 cái từ 150-200m, 30 cái từ 80-120mlà ok.

anyone here comming to saigon soon? can you take some shot of the city from the plane? I like it when they take you a short tour around the city before landing down........in the future when they move to the new airport you will not see that anymore

like hongkong..i thought I would get to see the city ....but the new airport was so far away.....when they landed I saw nothing but mountains and ocean and a bunch of suburban apartments......i didn';t pay an expensive economy class ticket to see those crap

I have observed (every evening from my roof terrace in Q. Phu Nhuan) that air flights rarely fly over Districts PN, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 10. The flight patterns seem to be directed around the outskirts of the city. I tried to find recent aerial photos of downtown HCMC lately on Google and Flickr without success.

TP.HCM: 64 triệu USD/km đường sắt đô thị

TT - Ngày 30-3, Tập đoàn Hợp tác kinh tế kỹ thuật đối ngoại Thượng Hải - SFECO (Trung Quốc) đã trình Sở Giao thông công chính TP.HCM báo cáo tiền khả thi dự án xây dựng tuyến metro số 4 từ cầu Bến Cát (Q.12) đến đường Nguyễn Văn Linh (Q.7).

Tuyến metro này đi qua chín quận huyện và hình thành sáu điểm trung chuyển của sáu tuyến giao thông đường sắt trong mạng lưới đô thị, tăng cường liên thông hai đầu nam bắc TP. Chiều dài tuyến giai đoạn 1 là 16,21km, gồm 12,99km ngầm và 3,22km đi cao.

Dự kiến đầu năm 2009 thi công và đến năm 2012 hoàn thành. Kinh phí đầu tư giai đoạn 1 ước hơn 1 tỉ USD, tức bình quân 64 triệu USD/km, lấy từ ngân sách TP và vốn ODA Trung Quốc. Ông Nguyễn Việt Sơn - phó giám đốc Sở Giao thông công chính TP - đề nghị SFECO tính toán lại vì mức giá này quá cao.

have you observed in the morning? I landed in saigon twice in early morning.....they swirled around the central districts ...I could see practically everything around that historical district 1 and Thu Thiem..Binh Thanh...etc

It's morning here right now in HCMC, so I just took a quick step out to observe for awhile. Planes seem to be taking off and landing in their usual pattern around the city.

16billion dongs to renovate the operahouse....this is good news..

I hope they fix the roof and put back all the windows on that mansart roof....and the 4 naked statues on the roof....and the 2 naked statues holding the lamposts on the balcony
put back the wrought iron balconies to replace those concrete ones

all those current plaster arts in front of the opera should change too. If you paid attention to the old picture of the operahouse you see those artwork in front of the operahouse used to be big standing-statues (leaning against the wall.......not plaster art glued to the wall like what you see now

and the 2 bare-breated statues at the entrance are too fat...the original ones were very thin and light

the 2 angels on the roof holding the French harp used to lean toward the instrument......the current ones are just 2 statues sitting and holding the harp.
I can go on....but I 'll stop now

this is so odd...saigon operahouse built by the French used to have fence around it....up until when I was 7-8 I still could see the fence.....now the clear the fence.
Hanoi opera house however had no fence since it was born......but after they renovated it in 1997 they put up the fence
people aren't happy with what they have eh?

Sẽ phục hồi Nhà hát thành phố

>> Quĩ nhà - rạp phục vụ biểu diễn chưa được sử dụng hợp lý

@Landing flight would usually go from Bien Hoa to Thu Duc to Binh Thanh to TSN over Thanh Da.

@Take-off planes would fly from that direction above or following a flight path Tan Binh>Binh Chanh then keep west or turn right to Q.7 to go east.

So the only pictures you can take is when you fly over Thanh Da or turning above Binh Chanh-Q.7

BANG, you mean those women on the columns aren't original? I thought their lips were a bit thick... any idea when they got replaced?

I never got a good view of the city when landing, except for Thu Duc and District 2 (I can see the planes landing from the verandah of my house when I eat dinner). And I am a bit wary of posting what I have because I think it's *forbidden* to take photos from the airplane, although they don't make the annoucement any more.

I did have some great views (sitting on the left, the A seat) when taking off, all of Phu My Hung and then over district 4 with a view of DT. Like SaigoneseKid said, basically.

The HK landing path is not interesting. When you take off, again sitting on the left side, you can see a lot of the central district, and the S side of HK island as well. There is a great book called "HK from the air" that shows you just about everything, they even sell it at the airport. I wish SGN had one like that too. Someday...
