I like the crown, but i'm not a fan of the building itself

[Bergenser]

Great building!

[MapleLeaf]

Even though it resembles so many others, it really is a beauty. :worship:

[TANGELD_SLC]

I think it's gorgeous :yes:

I really like the base. It's very unique.

Updates.

Good progress here.

November 7 by 平常心看世界. Wow, normally foundation works take ages, but these guys are working ultrafast here! It should start rising above ground level in less than two months.

[djvandrake]

Hmmm. Very interesting. The upper 1/3 of the building looks like a flower.

[JDRCRASH]

Wow, this one is going to be truly special. It's beautiful!

[plinko]

Meh.

[SkyscrapersOfNewYork]

i think its ugly except for the crown and for some reason the massing bothers me

[HomrQT]

Another neo art deco in China. I'm liking it alot.

[RLS_rls]

You too eh? I think it's the boxy set backs, they aren't staggered like regular art deco. This reminds me of a 90s fantasy novel cover actually.

[Fabb]

I think that it's nice, somewhat Dubai-esque, but with a typical Chinese bulk. It looks better from above... too bad it's not meant to be seen from that angle.

[Dylan Leblanc]

I think this is the final design. Some of these Chinese towers have a dozen designs proposed before a final one is selected.

[Fabb]

Less venitian and more art-déco, especially the shopping mall.

[eburress]

Wow - I really like this latest rendering and hope that is in fact what gets built!

[SkyscrapersOfNewYork]

wow that render is much better

[Hot Rod]

hm, I liked the initial rendering - the flower blossom.

But I am glad this is being built - nevertheless.

[kiwi_xiao]

They changed design again..so no one knows the new design..

[JDRCRASH]

Crown is definitely awesome.

[malec]

Update of this tower, and some smog too.
