According to SSP Tianjin has 15 skyscrapers under construction or built including two supertalls. There are another five more proposed including this one, four of these are supertalls. Like most Chinese cities it is rapidly growing as people move in from the countryside. Population in 2004 was 10 million, must be a lot more now.

wow. It reminds me the tower in HK. (I am a newbe i dont know the name of that building in HK, but I know you know ) It is nice and its high is impressive. I guess all of that area is a new development project. Everything looks brand new from pictures.

z0rg,
Can you change the status from Approved to Under construction? So I don't have to start a new thread again.

I opened the thread as U/C, but the moderator didn't like it.

Do you have info about the architect, developer, etc?
