BUSAN | Lotte Town Tower | 510m | 1674ft | 107 fl | On Hold

[Mosaic]

That's impossible to finish this in 2008, probably, 2009-10.

[SUNNI]

Ok, i got the facts
the Shopping mall and the Theme park is due to finish in 2008 while the rest (phase two) the hotel is due to finish 2013

the official height for this project is not 510m, 50m taller than originally planned.

[Mosaic]

OH!! 510 meters!!!

[Pastman]

Cool

No, YOU're totally wrong
IT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION RIGHT NOW!

If you don't believe me, check it out BY YOURSELF, IN PERSON
(I already know you've always commented on Korean supertalls in nagative ways all the time, even though you know nothing about it)

[skyperu34]

No, larven's wrong and you are wrong too.
It's clear there is the contruction(foundation work) where the tower is suppose to go.

Also, why Lotte are making such a huge pit if they don't build the tower
Don't you think the pit is too big just for the low-rise?

last year

Thank you very much into a rare sight of this supertall. Excellent quality

I think it´s very difficult to tell if this building is really under construction or not.
Let`s compare this complex with the 2IFC. They build the shopping mall first and then they build the tower.

If the entire site was under construction it would be more easy.

The pit is very huge but it`s still to early to be sure.

I don`t want to say that the tower is not under construction because i am not sure. I also can`t say that the tower is under construction. Let`s wait.

Thank god we have haru7788.
citypia i would be grateful if you could post his pics here as soon as possible.

the basement(parking lots) of the ifc mall is even deeper than the cofferdam of the 2IFC , not to mention the size

If so, you need to visit the construction site BY YOURSELF IN PERSON.

You will see the big public relations office for the visitors there.
Ask them whether this building is really under construction or not
You will get the definite answer from them right away. not from me, not here.

Of course, you will get to konw the whole process of this project.
cause the office offer a variety of free services including a free guide and brochures as well as detailed miniatures which is shown how to construct this project
and lots of audio and video materials and Internet services.
You even experience the process of whole construction through visual aids, year by year, month by month, even day by day.

Since when the foundation work(something like the land reclamation, solidifying the land for the tower) exclude the part of the under construction?
Lotte is still doing the foundation work, even though they are working even on sundays
It is not that easy work to build the big building on the sea, there used to the sea once, near searshore
It takes lots of time to do the foundation work only.
I have even heard the explosion to break the hard rocks from there


As you can see, Lotte is building the steel frames for the site of the department store.
and it is the last stage of the foundation(the ground work) for the tower.
They already put the steel H beams into the ground for the tower

and the pit is just the part of the whole complex.
Don't jump to the conclusion, through someting like comparing IFC or 2IFC or whatever

Anyway, I like your a litmusless position
OK, let's wait, only the time will tell

It's going to look really nice when it's done, but they've got a long way to go yet, lol

Don't worry, this big hole will be filled with a HUGE skyscraper in 5-6 years. I just hope I won't lose my interest in it by then.
