[pflo777]

are they sure, that they want to build this?

I mean, it looks a bit strange....

[kix111]

can't blame them....its farmer's apartment.

its built in the country that counts as part of BIG wuxi, NOT in the urban wuxi

where else in the world would you have a supertall in the country lol :p

[z0rg]

Kitsch project imo. But hey, how many rural towns can afford a supertall over there?

[pflo777]

you mean they want to build a 328m supertall on the countryside?

[kix111]

yeah..right beside the farmland dont you see from the renders :P ??

[potipoti]

it's a strange building, but if someone want to live there...

[Ekumenopolis]

Now there are some economically healthy farmers in Wuxi...! It would fit in Shanghai or any other major city.. but in the country?

[velut arbor aevo]

do you really think they are gong to call it the "farmer's apartment"?

[kix111]

yeah thats the direct translation from the chinse name

[Mr. Franks]

GO WUXI!

[dodge321]

I'd be impressed the day the farmers in western China can get a building like this in the countryside...everything is happening along the coastal regions.

[kix111]

the coastal regions in china is more developed than the inland regions for obvious reasons...

[jacks]

There isn't any countryside in any western sense of the word anywhere near Wuxi. 'Countryside' between Shanghai and Nanjing basically means a row of fields, a row of flats, row of fields ... This is pretty far-fetched, but it's less far-fetched there than it would be anywhere else. But do they have to build it so ugly?
