I'd never have spotted that in an hour, but it is a good laugh though.

I noticed it quite early and this was not the only one!!!

In front on the right-middle you can see several modernist inclining buildings,...

Yes it is true. In Shangahi you often have a lot of greenery around the buildings and many alleys. Imagine the air in Shanghai without!!!

Hehe. Well, air conditions have nothing to do with greenery, that's a modern superstition created by green lobbies. You need something like 5000 trees to offset one single car. They add beauty to the cityscape though

But they create cool shadows in summers,...

not really, shanghai is hot in summber because of the humid weather, its kinda like steam, unlike many countries for exmaple australia and nz, the heat is from the radiation from the sun

so shades in shanghai doesnt really do much =/

kix111 · December 9th, 2008, 10:07 PM

here is a render from moyan88

SilentStrike · December 9th, 2008, 10:13 PM

But still better than walking in the open sun!

There's a lot of buildings in that render that haven't had updates in their own posts for a while but which have grown heaps. Can we persuade any shanghai residents to make a pudong trip with their cameras?
... and wot's the box going up opposite the superbrand mall?

buildmilehightower · December 10th, 2008, 05:45 PM

wow that render look so surreal. But I think the top part of the tower may be a bit short in height.

I belive the tower is a bit more to the left... (edit by me with both IFC towers)

P.S.
What is that construction in front of the Pearl Tower?

staff · December 10th, 2008, 07:20 PM

China Safe Finance Building. Horrible project...

Don't you mean the building in front of the Oriental Tower.

http://i38.tinypic.com/2lwtyc4.jpg

It blocks the Pearl Tower.

staff · December 10th, 2008, 11:06 PM

Um, that's like one of the oldest towers in Pudong.
