such a great location for a tower with just 370m? IMO a Megatall would fit here perfect

Just?

People seem to be forgetting quite how tall 370m is! My city's tallest is just over 130m, and getting anything approved above 80m is a push!

This culster does not need a megatall. It is in balance as it is now.

well, we know chongqing, if the tower is too tall the chance of a height reduction or cancellation seems imminent. we have seen it so often in the past

370m is amazing already and i just hope it will stay that way without many problems, so that chongqing's skyline can slowly approach what it once promised.

I don't mean a cluster. What about 1 single tall tower in the middle?

I know how tall 370m are, don't worry

. But the location looks so perfect for a megatall to me

That would be something different, but I still preffers dense clusters over lone megatalls.

I hope they stick with that design, it looks great!

I've read a lot recently about the controversial destruction of old structures in Chinese cities, but the truth is that it's the only thing preventing them from becoming shanty towns. Take a look at these dilapidated buildings that were on the very spot this complex will be built, before they were bulldozed circa 2008-09:

i like the indoor sky gardens. i wouldn't mind this design being final to be honest. also i am happy it is a rather big plot allocated, so a smaller sibling structure isn't unlikely to reach 300m as well

ZZ-II · December 6th, 2012, 06:00 PM

wow, that looks absolutely fantastic

sweet-d · December 6th, 2012, 09:58 PM

Well this looks good.

tim1807 · December 6th, 2012, 10:00 PM

That complex looks cool.

Stolen Dubai One or what?

***Dylan Leblanc*** · December 30th, 2012, 08:37 AM

How does the affect the Metro Center Twin Towers (Lianglukou Center)? Are they now cancelled? It is my understanding that they were to be at the north-west part of the site.
