I don't think we will get better renders. I'll let IU or Jai have the honor of starting the international thread.

You just found a reason to add another post, didn't you? You replying me after a month or so when the talk has already died down, mer101?

^Well everyone forgot about it. So when are we gonna start a international thread? We can't hide our first supertall project from the world when it's already started rising.

No we should just hide it. People will notice it when they see it in the skyline. And we can pretend like we knew all along, wow what a great building.

not really , considering that it's so close to the sea and 88% of the population uses public transport.

Couple of possible reasons - or a combination of the two

1. Post rains in the monsoon, the haze clears because the suspended particulate matter precipitates with the rain + sea breezes change direction and sweep the haze out

2. A clever use of a UV filter on the fish-eye lens - just cuts thru the grey hues and enhances the blue region of the spectrum

Am a Mumbaikar, but even I could never claim that Mumbai is a lo-pollution city. That day aint dawning anytime soon

the sky is clearly worked on, the light is totally different compared to the foreground

but we do get some extremely clear days in bombay, especially after the monsoons. the last month or so has seen more than their fair share of such clear skies

If that's the latest rendering, it seems hard to believe the tower is actually 320 m. By my count there are 50 or fewer floors, and I doubt the many floors of parking will have extra high ceilings. I suppose the mechanical penthouse makes up for some of that, but still, the rendering doesn't make it look like a supertall.

Being close to the sea reduces air pollution. But still Mumbai is not the least polluted among Metros. I think Chennai is the least polluted followed by Hyderabad. Ahmedabad is the most polluted followed by Delhi. I will post the source, if I get it. I saw it somewhere in the pollution control board or some other authentic website

The supertall thread has some choice words about the project and rightly so , only hope is that the thread sinks into oblivion and spares Mumbai the embarresment and "how crap is this" comments cause lets face it , thats all this thing is going to get.

So much for the bright idea of the Intl. thread.

^Yee, its real ugly according to the world. Well now we know what every one thinks of it. I so badly hope that the thread sinks to the back of the forum but people won't stop posting in it. I've never seen a supertall thread with 98% of the comments saying its ugly. Must be the worst looking supertall on earth.
