Tianjin Center is in fact under construction. It's being converted into a Raffles Hotel. The Tianjin WTC, on the other hand, is stalled, and probably won't be restarted all that soon.

Took a few photos of the area around the site today. They apparently changed the name of the place. It's now called Tianjin World Financial Center.

![]() Wow, blue sky in Tianjin (early morning?), but slow progress ! Clashman, are you a nankai(南开大学) or tianjin(天津大学) university student in Tianjin (my house in Tianjin is at Tianjin university)?

No, but I take classes, (nominally), at TNU 天津师范大学, at the Balitai Campus. Tianjin's blue sky days are actually getting more and more regular, but there's still a long ways to go. Also, this was late afternoon, around 5, not early morning. The effect is still the same, though.

Yeah, I thought that because 29 out of 30 days I was there, there was smoggy sky except for the early morning.

![]() Looks nice! Does anyone know what project the row of towers on the right and the "Grande Arche" is? Is it just a vision, or actually a real plan?

I think that's actually being built, as well. The area from this picture:

Also, on another similar note, I believe I saw some cranes going up over by where the Nanzhan/Kerry Center development is supposed to be rising.

This project has been renamed to "Tianjin World Financial Center" “天津环球金融中心” and includes the main tower and a row of low to mid rise buildings next to it along the Hai He riverfront.
