Located in Sukhumvit Soi 6, This Jaisaman Tower is a residential tower with 34 storey above ground and 2 basement.

Construction on the foundation started more than 5 months ago, but the tower started to rise only just in August......Yet, The rendering still not shown yet (Or may be shown but I'vn seen one....:? )

These are pictures from today (Oct, 24 2003)....The Main tower is currently on the 4th floor...30 storey more to go..:D

Great to see a new tower beginning to rise. Let's hope they make it more colorful than the surrounding buildings.

By the way, that tower in the background is cool.

I changed the description on levels of these two towers since I just found out that this projekt will consist two towers with 40 and 20 Storey tall....:)

archstudent
April 23rd, 2004, 07:07 AM
OMG!! 40 storey!

Chad
April 23rd, 2004, 07:23 AM
Well, not so big deal since it's residential but yes.....beyond my expectation too...:)

Jo
April 23rd, 2004, 03:56 PM
Wow, that's not bad. And the rear tower will not be hidden by the 20 storey one.

I guess it will probably be white like the surrounding buildings though.

Chad
April 23rd, 2004, 04:24 PM
Well...hope not, I'm hoping some other color would be better such as yellow or something instead of white...:)

yeah,I'm hoping they are not white

Jo
April 23rd, 2004, 11:29 PM
Same here.. we don't know anything about the design yet, right? Apart from what we are seeing of the construction.

If it's more concrete than glass I'd like to see a brownish or dark red color. I'm insane? :)

Chad
April 24th, 2004, 04:13 AM
NO Jo......Thats my apartment color..:D:D

anyway, yes...I still have NO CLUE on how it (I mean they) gonna look like when finished. But I'm sure it wont be so long since the main tower is now very closed to top-out...:)

just might takes 2-3 months ...;)

Jo
April 24th, 2004, 12:49 PM
Oh yeah, your apartment color it is! :) I forgot the parking part is brown or beige or something.

Ahh.. topping out so soon now

Chad

I'm not saying it will be white, but aaccoring to my experience. This tower is just another ordinary residential tower which being developed by a normal "Sukhumvit Developer", not trendy, not famous, not hip and not popular....so, I'm "quite" posssitive that it would looks "normal Sukhumvit Residential", but as it's taller than normal Sukhumvit condos there might be a chance of being differrent...;)

rayman
July 18th, 2004, 04:29 PM
yeah, anyway I didn't expect this tower to be glassy and trendy because it is in the middle of white concrete jungle, with a not so hip and good area, but I was just hoping because that area looks really boring as it is already so it would be nice with some variation there :)

Love those nice pics from Lake Ratchada Chad. At least 2 towers from W will be rised there(not included others).That will make a little different and a bit cooler than what we have now. ;)


Appearently W Hotel and residence, Sofitel Sukhumvit and BT Residence will be fully appeared on that scene in the very near future!!..:cool:

It creates a nice cluster effect. I hope the rendering you found Chad is of Jaisaman tower, because it would be a good key tower for that little mountain of buildings.

It would also be a good place for a little park on that grassy area in front. But they are going to build a shopping center there right?

Chad

Boring facade, color is fine after all, good height, creates nice mini cluster. Not sure what to think of the crown yet.. I'll wait until it's completed. That's basically what I think of this one from an aesthetic point of view.
