that one's a beauty!!

cncity · May 4th, 2007, 03:41 PM

yes it is...and the pre-construction work has already been started in Mumbai, so this project is coming up for sure The design looks interesting too. :cheers

Naga_Solidus · May 4th, 2007, 06:05 PM

Does anyone have sattleite images of the construction site? I'd love to make a GE model of it.

Mahratta · May 5th, 2007, 05:37 AM

82 stories!!! And it looks nice too! HELL YEAH!!

Also, it looks massive in the render (placed in Mumbai) that could be the start of Mumbai's supertall boom, fellows.

Hindustani · May 5th, 2007, 01:40 PM

Good project. need to work on facade BTW, its too boxy & blockish. nonetheless a great start towards 100F.

actually i loved the facade.. very glassy and very modern.. and since it's a bunch of boxes at angles, that isn't much of an issue either if you ask me..

VaastuShastra · May 5th, 2007, 02:52 PM

@boxness

I think that will look better in real life.

Hyatt Mumbai

Guys, this one even has a helipad on the roof..now thats awesome

more info.

oops, seems you found it much before me

Naga_Solidus · May 5th, 2007, 05:58 PM

If it really does turn out to be 420m, it'll have the world's highest elevated helipad (the current highest helipad on a skyscraper is the one on the 310m US Bank Tower in LA).

I dont remember exactly, i will try to find out. But it was found along with the Indian architect at Fx and Fowle company.Its not the Fx fowle's website though.Its some other website. The tower was earlier named as 'India Tower' when initially designed. It wasnt known as the Hyatt. I think they officially made it Hyatt when the tower was finalised. The pre-construction work of this tower is almost complete and the actual construction might start very soon. Ill post the link as soon as i find that link.

Awesome, thanks

Kingmaker · May 6th, 2007, 10:38 AM

Even Ambani's new home did not get permission for helipad (http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/...w/1942946.cms). I wonder how they managed it!!

I just realized... that while the Park Hyatt is a great project to be sure, but it isn't really a megaproject, which usually refers to either a large-scale multi-use project and/or significant (billions of $) investments. It's best to be discussed in the Mumbai updates thread, so as not to clutter up this one (I'm guilty too)

Mods, is it possible to move posts from one thread to another? If so, can these posts be transferred to the Mumbai updates thread?

KNasser · May 6th, 2007, 01:19 PM

Amazing tower!
it's awesome to see India(one of my favourite countries) with beautiful skyscrapers!

one question: are emaar propreties behind this project?
if not what is the company?
thank you and Go India go!

Mahratta · May 6th, 2007, 05:22 PM

Which project? If you mean the Hyatt then its fxfowle architects

Also, I also want to see India go!

I love these articles talking about massive investment - but I have a feeling it will amount to more steriotypical mid-rise beige blocks with no charecter covering hectares of cityscape.

Aha realism
