I think Shanghai Center (580m or 630m) is taller though I don't know which one will be finished first.

[z0rg]

Shanghai Center is 632m. Shenzhen Ping An Center will be 600m~ too they say.

[buildmilehightower]

true true, two taller skyscrapers so far in hands of China, but this tower will be at least temporaily the tallest in China when completed.

[Buyckske Ruben]

OMG another 600m craper!!!



How much 600m crapers we have now in the world!!! I think more then 20.

[Capn Jef]

This one is not 600m.

[skyscraper100]

the height has been raised to 600m

[serendip finder]

I do not like the design at all. Too thin and simple shaft.

The top is really wierd, worse than a bad crown.

China has a lot of good-looking supertalls. This is not one of them.

[z0rg]

Any official source about the revision?

[CarlosBlueDragon]

wow... 600m!! Congratulations
I like be 611m and GZ TV Tower

No official source for the 77 twins either, right? Rumours are just rumours even if people believe them, can't change till we get some official release, or at least a render showing project clearly higher or anything.

Remember that ss.cn guy who said the Shanghai Center would be 800m+. He claimed he had access to official sources, and many people believed him. Then what? It happens all the time.

It will most likely modify design slightly during the construction anyway.
