UPDATE


600m Tall Under Construction In Tianjin

Published on 17-11-2008 by Skyscrapernews.com
Unlike the fanfare of Dubai there has been barely a whisper, but a new 600 metre tall tower is now under construction in the Chinese city of Tianjin.

Named China 117 Tower after the number of storeys within the building, the scheme is being developed by Hong Kong based developer, Goldin Properties, who plan on their scheme truly dominating the city of Tianjin with it's 11 and a half million population.

The tower has been designed by an as yet unnamed architect. It will contain 406,000 square metres of internal space with floors 1 to 92 consisting of offices and the upper part of the tower from levels 93 to 117 due to be occupied by an as yet unnamed six star hotel operator.

In total the tower will cost $820 million US to construct, although this budget goes up to $1.2 billion when the mall it will stand above is also included.

The scale of this is enormous with the mall due to boast some 316,000 square metres of space - this is about two thirds of the floor-space of the Pentagon in Washington DC but still less than half the current largest shopping mall in China, South China Mall and not enough to even make the global top 10.

Once completed China 117 Tower will be the tallest building in the country over 100 metres taller than Shanghai World Financial Centre. This is a record it will hold until Gensler's planned 632m tall Shanghai Centre goes up in the city it takes its name from recapturing them the title.

Anthony Blinken would keep it, particularly the regime over there(if it needs to be) , cheque and the overall parliament/political atmosphere/climate in US is something else towards than it has ever been since 1989, so still hard time doing so, IF there ever are an actual connection to those things in the first place.. Lol.. Anyway, that were sudden off-topic, back on track, I think.. Lol.. 😉👍🌈

The diamond is totally necessery. Unfortunately there are a lot of China haters, because it´s US forum... So they pretend, that the diamond is bad. But if you´ll go to Gaoloumi and ask them if they wish the tower with or without diamond, noone will need this building without diamond, because it can by only one of the uggliest tower without it. On the other hand, 597m building will make this area one of the most famous Tianjin areas within 50 years. I really believe it can be another city centre, but it needs decades...

Yeah, sure, but Gaoloumi it's more nationalistically based and monotonously ethnical (Chinese all the way around... ) than this whole site, which OBVIOUSLY is international. Please don't victimized yourself for giving you right to have such groundless and superficially emotionally impulsive statements all of sudden, just because you wanted to, when seeing some slightest of actual non-negatively CONSTRUCTIVELY critical , semi-analytic and obviously contenting comments in here.Should always be room for that... Sure it might be made by Americans(Oh, Chicagoan just said it's even made by Dutch people, so come again.. will you.. ) AND, , it's sure has been an internationalized and global website for years now, or even decades now .. Just look around you, it's obviously it isn't what might you think it's, you "not thinking out of the box and genuinely one-sided " - Czech boy yourself, unlike Galoumi(just like any of its news media
that are hardcore state controlled, self-criticism-sensitive and non-21st century super traditional /conservative /ultra-nationalistic AND its regime-only-chosen journalist staff itself, too, but that's whole another case/or story. ) , enough of that... Just had to point that right away out as well.

Anyways, yeah, the diamond (and, I hope it's with a "non-((typically/averagely:I.e, not them all BTW)) -modern-Chinese-or-Dubai-building"-glass quality, I.E it should be way better than this building's current
- what's already added onto it - facade's facade/cladding QUALITY . Again not referring to the facade/cladding LOOK here) crown might do it slightly more beautiful, yeah, sure. Yay for that, at least, I think 😌👍🌈💎

I thought it was Canadian because I see this at the bottom
111 Peter Street, Suite 901, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 2H1, Canada
The site was bought out by a Canadian company in 2018.

If this building will be finished according to original plan, it would beat CTF Guangzhou, for example and according to my likindg also Pingan IFC. But of course, the surroundings is problem, but the building itself can be one of the greatest structures in China, or one fo the greatest crap in the world, without the diamond 🤷‍♀️ Does exist a building in China, that was redesigned and looked better than original plan? Pingan? Guiyang twins? or Wuhan Greenland? Some other? No, new design always makes worse result.

here is the thread about the nice building with diamond in taizhou :love:

I wonder if the Chinese Government is gonna have to intervene in order for this thing to be completed. Goldin is obviously incapable of completing their own building and it’s obviously burning money at this point
