Sun Valley:450m+, 100 floors; 4x200m+, 50+ floors. Yingli Properties' tallest project in town. Officially announced to be composed by one tower of 100 floors and another four above 50. The design is likely to be rather conceptual, and the outcome is expected to be drastically revised downwards. This project is located in Jiangbei district, next to Future International tower. Several on going projects by Yingli properties within the area were merged into this single large development.

amazing how many supertalls Chongqing will have in the near future

how many?

http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c203/macpolo/200710100311026646.jpg

I love the crisp 90 degree angles and unique white color. great building. :horse: :wave: :okay:

how many?

i really don't know the exact number but i believe 10 or more. ask z0rg, he is better informated :)

here we go

its the final

just the top still has 2 pros

almost the same

in fact its like nyny tower a lot

but much much higher

here is the large pix



ive resized them

I like it, but it's sooooo Empire/Chrysler :lol:

nice

sorry,they asked me to take back the renders
they dont wanna post them now

i saw them...so i don't need more :D

so i shouldn't show them to anyone?

how many?

Hard to say, many heights are unknown. Here is a list of the highest projects on going in CQ.

Further info (renders, etc) at Chongqing projects thread:

[Jiefangbei] Yingli Tower (330m-350m; 75~ floors): Final version expected to be launched this month, height probably 330m.

[Jiangbei] Yingli Tower (385m+; 81 floors): Yingli Properties' latest project. To be built next to Future International.

Global Financial Building (330m~; 70~ floors): Final design unreleased, supposed to be launched soon.

Century Star Plaza (2x350-400m, 4x200-280m~; 2x80-95 floors, 4x50-75 floors): Same story. Final design unreleased, latest proposals simply crazy.

Jialing Fanying (398m; 98 floors): Scheduled to be started before the end of 2007. Shui On Land has just announced it will be "above 100 floors", so they might change the design.

Marriott Center (398m; 80 floors): After being on hold due to constant height increases, it should be resummed soon.

Artificial Tower (used to be 200m; 50~ floors): The project (currently a huge hole) was sold and some people said it would become a supertall. Height increase is confirmed, but few chances to become so tall.

Yuzhou Hotel (308m, 70~ floors): Under redesign, final height expected to be around 310m.

Hongyadong Phase II (300m~; 65+ floors): Just a concept proposal, no design released by the moment.

Park Place Twin Towers (2x305m; 70+ floors): Still too little information, final proposal unreleased.

West Asia Hotel (298m; 68 floors): Final height unconfirmed.

Huangedu Tower 1 (300m~; 68~ floors): Vague proposal for Nanbin area. Still no info.

Triumph Tower (280m+; 75 floors): Proposal next to Century Star Plaza, very little info.

Paradise Beyond the River Hotel (280m+; 68 floors): Final design unreleased, might be a little taller.

Nanbin Tower (300m~; 67+ floors): We don't know almost anything about this project. One proposal shows a 70+ floor tower around 330m, the other shows a 67 floor twin tower project over 280m. Probably the final plan will be another.

Poly Tower (290m; 60 floors): Definitive design, construction has just started.

Nanan CBD Supertall (300m+): Just a concept proposal by the moment.

Jiangbei CBD Supertalls (2x300m+): More concept proposals.

Haha, did make me chuckle.

I've got a good feeling about this building though.

hmm.....wish i saw it.

I love the crisp 90 degree angles and unique white color. great building. :horse: :wave: :okay:

Agreed. Beautiful polished concrete I think, absolutely fantastic. Certainly a very elegant design.

So, no 300m towers actually under construction at the moment? I thought the Marriott would almost be done by now, but I guess it is still on hold.

@macpolo, why don't you post the complete render again here too as you did in cq thread :D

yes, i'd like to see the original render, please :)

yes, i'd like to see the original render, please See the bottom of z0rg's post at #13 for the clue. :)

franchement,i dont like it,neither of them

one is enough for a city,and we already have one standing in the center of the city

NICE! i like those New York-like buildings. they fit well with Chongqings Manhattan-like geography.

to generic for me. to many spires of the same or similar look..... blah

Fortunately, they rejected the retro design.

This is the final plan, 100 floors, and surely around 450m instead of 385m. And what is better, the project is official now.

重庆晚报讯（记者 李珩 钱波）在昨日江北区观音桥步行街延伸段的开街仪式上，江北区区长陶长海透露，年内将拆迁完渝北二村67亩地块（位于江北新世界百货后），在该地块实施“太阳谷”项目，其中包括百层楼的超高建筑。

据介绍，渝北二村是今年江北区建设的重点，年内将全部拆迁完毕。该地块今后将实施独具匠心的“太阳谷”项目：由5栋超高建筑组成，最高的有100层，低的也有50多层，将成为江北区的标志性建筑群。“这5栋建筑将主要用作酒店、商务，超5星酒店也将入驻渝北二村。”

此外，五星级酒店将在观音桥商圈打“堆堆”，目前观音桥商圈及周边已有君豪大饭店和金源大饭店两座五星级酒店，年内还将添5个。

据了解，商圈（含周边）拟建的5座五星级酒店当中，“协信丹枫白露”公寓式五星大酒店已在建，一家由香港投资的五星酒店则相中了市老干中心这块黄金宝地，如今，该地块已搬迁拆除完毕，工程即将动工。另外，原欧式一条街上，正在改造装修一家五星饭店，而位于海洋富力广场和红旗河沟转盘，也将先后动工修建五星酒店。

Looks way better now :)

I preferred the old design. And I seem to be the only one in here with that opinion. :)

The new one is good too. But not that good.

great new design!! good :)

Now it looks too much like Lotte Super Tower in Seoul by SOM.

Here's the SSC thread for that http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=474259

Anyway... it's no longer on SOM's website.

I love the crisp 90 degree angles and unique white color. great building. :horse: :wave: :okay:

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!:lol:

looks as one of the projects for the third tower in shanghai, did they recycle it? Its much better than the old design

yes, thought the same when i saw it. wouldn't fit as Shanghai center but here in chonqing it will look great :)

Wow, so this is the tallest approved for Chongqing?

Looks good and should be a great set of additions for one of China's four great skyscraper cities.

Seems like there are 2 proposals.

Please be #1.

the new designs are really good, the 2nd is best

I preferred the old design. And I seem to be the only one in here with that opinion. :)

The new one is good too. But not that good.
You are not alone :D

I hope they will build the Empire Chrysler in other city :cheers:

Hopefully it will be design #1!!!!!^^

The #1 design does look much better. The other one looks like a piece of crap. I can't wait to visit Chongqing, looks like a beautiful city.

#1 me too!! if 500m!! i like!!!

First design looks great, hope they choose that one.

And it reminds me of this proposal to the Shanghai Centre. :)
http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg64/z0rgggg/sg-27G.jpg

^^ They probably rescued that proposal, let's hope so.

Clearing works progressing fast. By 信灾乐祸.

Wow, all amazing designs except the tacky Taipei 101 clone. Glad to see that design from SC resurface, it is one of my favorites for China.

ZOrg You are clever, Good job and Congratulations!! :applause::applause::applause::bow:

:eek2: This city is gonna rival Dubai!!! Most of the 400+ meters buildings are nicer than the marina towers of the same hight in Dubai though.

This map is outstanding!! Thank you z0rg.

Doesn't that Sheraton International Center looks a bit like the Petronas Towers?

Wow, all amazing designs except the tacky Taipei 101 clone. Glad to see that design from SC resurface, it is one of my favorites for China.

Yes I agree, but somehow I think that tacky one does remind me of the look of Chinese lantern but in a slimmer and taller shape.

I dunno :)

nice glass structure

ohh okay lol thanks zorg, u completely cheered me up :)

This one is very likely to be the final design for the main tower, they said. You can count around 95 floors, probably above 450m if we include the spires.

i like both the first and the new design, i dont care which one they build :)

I guess the final version is better for a larger, skyscraper-rich city like chongqing though.

wow, amazing designs for Chongquing!!!

I love that rescued design from Shanghai Center proposal!

New renders of the final design. Seems like they didn't choose the one we thought. 78~ floors, 400m+. Second tallest has 288.8m.

nice... but the other proposals were better.

Not even 2 thirds of the total hiehgt is being used.

nice... but the other proposals were better.

Not even 2 thirds of the total hiehgt is being used.

Pay attention to the first render, roof height is 10 floors higher than the middle section.

IMO:

Roof = 370-390m.
Parapet = 390-410m.
Spire = 430-460m.

Could become Chongqing's tallest :D

I think 嘉陵帆影 is taller, isn't it?

I like the first two renders on page 1... That is the best design by far in my opinion...

^^Hmm, will there be a main entrance for these buidings, it seems that there are existing buildings surrounding the construction site

There's absolutely nothing wrong with the current design, it appeals to me more and has character. The previous one just dosn't do it for me.

This is the current design, but who knows if it is final. Still no official height. Previous press releases claimed the main tower would have 100 floors.

New renders of the final design. Seems like they didn't choose the one we thought. 78~ floors, 400m+. Second tallest has 288.8m.

The height of the main tower is unlikely to match the first estimations, maybe not even a supertall. We'll see.

On the other hand seems like they'll build more phases with shorter towers.

And more bad news for CQ. This one is likely to be well below 300m. Only 277m, 68 floors. No official. 300m, 70 floors according to the round figures in this article.

This one is a spectacular design, they aren't using it?

Don't worry, it's 300+.

^^ but the first one was so great! i loved the green roofs
ill guess were gona have to forget about that great plan :ohno:

I don't know if this has been said before but this looks a lot like a building being built in london

New renders posted by tintin. Allegedly by Gensler. 315.5m, 69 floors.
As usual they failed to provide or even mention the source of this information.

This project, as every other Yingli development, will be a huge disappointment it seems. As usual Yingli has fooled us for years announcing a huge tower which in the end will be far shorter and less interesting than any of the countless fake proposals released over the last years. 100 floors, it was all over the press! These liars are even worse than Shimao! At least, in case they build Gensler project, they wont build something ugly as they are doing in Jefangbei but a very decent design.

My only hope is that according to the latest renders posted at #89, the masterplan may be enlarged adding up to another 10 towers. Exchanging height for more towers is acceptable, if they truly build them :D

Since the rest of the towers, in case they ever build them, are likely to be developed in a long term, I'm changing the title of the thread. We may open new threads on the future as they release clear information about other towers within the Sun Valley masterplan.

This is what we truly know besides all that forum-fabricated mythology:
http://cq.qq.com/a/20100916/000612.htm
^^ 300m, 70 floors [crossing my fingers here, so that it wont be just 280-299.99m], according to this article released in late 2010. No doubt, the final project will miss the announced 100 floors by far, Yingli loses face again.

Proposal by Hassell.



The Tianhe Mansion Tower is designed as a landmark building for the Guan Yin Qaio district. The super high-rise tower comprises 66 storeys and is 312 metres in height.

The concept for the tower evolved from the historical pole housing structures or 'diaojiao', perched over terraced landscapes.

Surrounded on all sides by existing properties, the tower is located in a green pocekt of parkland in the city. Circular in plan and designed to be viewed in the round, the core offset assists with natural daylight penetration.

The podium is seen as an extension of the parkland and is shrouded in a canopy of foliage, while the external envelope of the main tower is a combination of skin and structure.

Portions of this system are operable, providing natural ventilation and air supply to the mechanical system. Pocket sky gardens appear across the facde, throughout the entirety of the building.

As with the base, the pole structure continues beyond the top of the tower, forming a delicate crown.

Another proposal. Also by Hassell. In the Chinese version they include that the height is 290m only.


The city of Chongqing lies between two mountain ranges at the intersection of the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers. The region is known for its astonishing scenery of mountain and river gorge.

The steep and dramatic landscape of the surrounding terrain continues into Chongqing itself, famously known as the ‘Mountain City’.

The Rock is a 60-storey commercial tower in Chongqing. Its form is generated as the logical, contextual response to the topographical features that surround the city. The structure is intended to be both natural and embedded in its surroundings, at the same time being a distinctive and recognisable sculptural form.

The office floor consists of a traditional central core with one row of columns along the perimeter edge, creating column-free space internally. A five-storey restaurant at the top of the tower provides dramatic views of the city.

At the street level, a four-storey retail podium and public plaza create activity and life around the base of the tower

The Rock is inspired by Alberto Giacometti’s 1934 bronze sculpture, Cube.

the one with the spire and kinda a bit open one is the nicest yet

^^ I like this proposal. The shape is awesome!

Allegedly 316, Gensler. Hope we can confirm it. Another disappointment by Yingli Properties, hopefully it'll reach 300m.

still a shame considering the first renders and height we had. at least it will most likely stay a supertall, but still disappointing.

Looks a bit like the Costanera Center, especially the corners, but that doesn't make the design bad. I like it.

good design, hopefully this tower can finally come up now, there was enough ups and downs for this project and it is about time for this tower to rise :cheers:

Elegant flat-roof supertalls?

Agree!

There are way too many new buildings with a slightly tapering shape and indented corners these days.
