SEOUL | Projects & Construction

[KillerZavatar]

current situation of (possible) future 400m+ buildings in seoul:

1. Seoul Light - 640m

disputes about the final height are not solved yet and are expected to come to a solution on May 31th. the final height may be decreased from 133 to 70 floors. inno expects a solution in between of maybe 100 floors or a cancellation of the project. if the project gets a go though, it will start rather soon with preparations already on going.

2. Triple One - 620m

The final renders of the project just got released and it is looking good for it to be built. The project is approved and preparations already started

3. Lotte World Tower - 555m

Extremely fast the core is rising and this project will soon tower above the city.

4. Hyundai Global Business Center - 540m

The project isn't confirmed to be on ice, but it looks like it is at least on hold for some more months or even cancelled already. I would be surprised to hear about it again in the near future.

5. IBD Boutique Tower - 450m

As part of the yongsan masterplan with triple one, this tower is looking good. It is approved and the final design was chosen even before triple one already. I hope to see preparations for this tower to start soon.

AS+GG unveils design for supertall mixed use towers for Seoul

The Chicago-based design firm, Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, unveiled today its design for Dancing Dragons, a pair of supertall mixed-used towers for the new Yongsan International Business District in Seoul, South Korea. The buildings, which include a mix of residential, ‘officetel', and retail uses, consist of slender, sharply angled mini-towers cantilevered around a central core. This design, as described in a press release, is "contemporary yet informed by aspects of traditional Korean culture"...http://www.worldarchitecturenews.com...pload_id=19777

I commented on this thread just the other day yet my post seems to have been removed. Why?

Many korean buildings on the other threads easilly dissapear soon after updating by korean forummers without replies.

Also, there are a great change on SCC
There has been significant decrease of malicious comments or replies about Korea or korean proposal of supertalls. in recent years

I vividly remember that so many forummers came to mock korea as if nothing will turn out right anyway.

It is unfair that anybody would criticize South Korea's skyscraper ambitions. Seoul has one of the most precarious security situations in the world, and yet retains its goals for a very bright future. I think the Lotte Jamsil will be a great tower to showcase the Korean people, and as a New Yorker, I am jealous that Seoul is able to get such a huge skyscraper icon bigger than anything in the USA.

In the past, I think some of the criticism of SK's supertall skyscraper ambitions was justified, as none of the numerous proposals had panned out. Now that some of the super talls are finally rising, those criticisms are no longer valid.

so, do you think the plot will still be occupied by a megatall, or do you think they will propose a smaller building now that seoul lite got removed
