Its "No tax area".

This is horrible. Instead of building in the length they should have gone for the height.

^^Not every thing has to be tall dude ;)

Sure not. But this building just seems to cry about being build in the horizontal.

This is gonna look cool once done.

that's a beauty

Well the concept itself says a waverock, a wavy structure... which is best represented horizontallyy...

Its beautiful.

This is another 250m Wide Building in the Financial District and not Waverock. It houses the South India Corporate office of ICICI Bank :)

250 meters! really? I mean i have seen it with my eyes when i was in Hyd last years but 250 meters,that's mind blowing. Btw can you post few pics of the microsoft and newly opened Facebook office buildings?

^^ I meant "Horizontal Length";

Measured the actual length using Google Earth;

ICICI Corporate Office is 272m :

And Waverock is 323m :

How I wish these were Vertical Lengths instead of Horizontal.

We should have a horizontal skyscraper cup ;)

Out of interest, what is the widest single building in the world?

That's crazy! 323 meters!

There is already a thread for this one, see here (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?p=38045996#post38045996)
