Goettsch Partners designs Park Hyatt Guangzhou mixed-use tower

Goettsch Partners has been commissioned by Guangzhou R&F Properties Co. to design a new 1,000-foot-tall mixed-use building in Guangzhou, China. The project totals 1,878,000 square feet and features a 180-key Park Hyatt hotel, 430,000 square feet of offices, 65,000 square feet of retail, 24 condominiums, 174 serviced apartments, and underground parking for 700 cars. The 66-storey building is located in the Zhujiang development, planned as Guangzhou’s new city center, near the Pearl River. The tight, two-acre site sits over a transit station at the intersection of two subway lines, with neighboring buildings that include the Grand Hyatt Guangzhou, also designed by Goettsch Partners; the city’s new opera house; the new Guangdong Museum; and what will be China’s tallest twin towers at more than 1,300 feet. The Park Hyatt tower is designed as a single volume that pinches in at the corners in relation to the changing programmatic functions stacked within. The field of staggered vertical strips on the façade stretches and compresses like tendons in response to the varying floor-to-floor heights required for each distinct function. The approximately $150 million project is currently in the schematic design phase and is expected to be completed in 2010.

[Mr. Alloy]

Hmm... I'd like it more if it wasn't so square. Taking bites out of a box doesn't make it any more interesting.

[AshMat]

That's a really strange looking tower. Not a huge fan of the look..

[shivy]

hmm, park hyatt seems to be making alot of supertalls, the one in india and now this, cool.:cheers:

[Stephan23]

:eek2: Very good looking!!!

[matt_sbs]

66 floors for a 305m tower is amazing, shows that height is better then amount of floors.

[kurdapya]

Looks promising...

[CarlosBlueDragon]

new Hyatt in GZ!! :applause:

[Anekdote]

Nice design!

[Rizzato]

Im not fond of 'indents' in skyscrapers, but nice glass anyways

[xiaoluis]

Looks freaking great.... love it..

[googleabcd]

Good news, now Guangzhou will have 10 300+ buildings finished before 2010!

[Gaeus]

Only Park Hyatt?!? That means the Grand Hyatt must be bigger and better? :nuts:

[ZZ-II]

and again a new supertall for this world :). slowly but surely i can't count them all anymore ^^

[z0rg]

Good news, now Guangzhou will have 10 300+ buildings finished before 2010!

1 GZ TV Tower
2,3 GZ Twins
4 CITIC Plaza
5 Pearl River Tower
6 Leatop Plaza
7 Park Hyatt
8 B2-10 plot
9 B1-6 plot
10??

I'm missing something I think. Please update :D

Btw, I noticed they added a concrete height for B1-6 plot already in some plans. Did they release the design for that plot already? Please post info if you have :)

[44p]

looks like the Hearst tower in new york:ohno:

[macpolo]

its not over 300m yet
where did u get this info?

[macpolo]

ssccn they said that the gov dont want it over 300m,the the final height will be 285m,probably

but 66 floors is final

[z0rg]

I dont think worldarchiteturenews.com invented the height, they surely obtained the figure directly from the architects.

[FM 2258]

It's an awful looking render but I think it will look great in real life.

[Rizzato]

I think its impossible to keep up with china's skyscrapers.
its just amazing the amount of buildings theyre puttin up

[macpolo]

I think its impossible to keep up with china's skyscrapers.

[RiOT!]

I think it has an odd design imo.:)

[Nõgesh]

i like the design, but imo it would suit better for a shorter tower.

[Greg]

Not to bad, I like it :)

BTW, they all say this tower will be just 285m. However, official sources claim that it'll be 1000 ft tall (305m) :S

What is the contruction site of this tower?
The first plot with cranes? or the plot in the backside? :nuts:
I can't understand, because in the next pic you show a plot in the backside.

[Cristobal_illo]

This one will be shorter than expected.
According to CTBUH, this one will have just 289-meters high (947 ft.) and keeping the same number of stories, 66-floors.

http://buildingdb.ctbuh.org/index.php?do=building&building_id=584
^^Source

[z0rg]

^^ Many sources (including the architect website) claim it'll have 1000ft/305m instead. We should find a plan to confirm the correct height :(

^^I'm agree, or maybe wait some time to see what will be the final height. Although the information is from around 2007.
We'll see...

Great tower. Will be a great adition to the skyline
