An 18F 300m tower?

Seriously though how the hell does this have 18 floors?


This is the same tower from that article talking about ugly designs being rejected. They showed a rejected one and an approved one, this was the approved one

i am counting at least 60F. sure this is wrong, but as said in the gossip thread it is rather surprising, a 17F only building for a normal plot on SZR.

so i am sure this one will be 300+ and 60F + actually.

but i guess no press releases etc for some time. if we are lucky we will hear of it in some tender etc.

i don't like the design btw. at least not from this..

The redesigned version looks much better without that ball and with a curved crown.

Where is this tower exactly so I can add it to my model?

Also think it's not 17!! 71 should be correct.

But looks like a stunner
