Simple yet elegant but it conveys a sense of power.
Thanks for helping me make this thread:)

Patrick August 30th, 2003, 09:50 PM simple but impressive /8 ;)
but in one thing i should correct you, this (http://skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=55242) buildings is already #245 :D:D:D:D:D, and #244 is also 208m, so this one needs to be #246 :D:D:D:D

james2390 January 3rd, 2004, 08:33 AM has a nice curve, 7
shivtim July 23rd, 2004, 07:12 PM A beautiful tower. Reminds me of 333 Wacker in Chicago. I really like how at the end of the curve instead of just stopping, there's a little edge that points back. Would be a 10 if it weren't for the average base and that dish on top.
so... 9.5/10

Monkey November 14th, 2004, 04:11 AM Cool shape and cool facade, but it seems a little overbearing. It needs a few other towers around it, to reduce its dominance.

Þróndeimr January 31st, 2005, 09:19 PM The tower looks quite dull now, but when the CBD area is starting to surround the area i think it will look far nicer. 7/10

7 World Trade August 26th, 2005, 06:01 AM the base looks nice, but the tower itself has very little architecture to offer. the glass seems really reflective though, which is a good thing.

more sky lobbies.

Reasonably nice facade but the roof looks awful with all kinds of telecommunication equipments exposed.

Jim856796 July 2nd, 2007, 05:13 AM Since the completion of the Beijing TV Centre in late 2006, the Jing Guang Centre is not the tallest building in Beijing anymore. Nevertheless, i'll rank it a 7.5/10.

Pengui January 4th, 2008, 04:39 PM I'd love to see it as a foreground to an even taller and dense business district, but isolated like that and so huge, it's just too bland for my taste.
5/10.
