:previous: That is simply not true... at SSC there are a lot of mistakes. We should wait until that is officially confirmed. There might happened some site preperation work in the area... but likely not U/C.

^^That's why I said that we have to wait for an official announcement

Infernal_Elf Oct 31, 2010 1:20 PM

any more news on this? would be way cool if they have started on the actual tower

OneWorldTradeCenter Oct 31, 2010 2:14 PM

No they haven't started and there are no news. There is also no page at the architects (Foster) website. Very mystery..

kiwi4life Oct 31, 2010 6:26 PM

still would be pretty sweet to see this one go ahead and rise like the other supertalls in the world, would be great to see India get this one on the road

mannu12 Nov 11, 2010 1:51 PM

More evidence that this is U/C

Such small hole for that tower. Are sure that this is the main site.

Those links to not prove that construction has started. I would like to see an official statement by the architect or the developer. I also miss a page at Forsters website. Mystery project...

mannu12 Nov 12, 2010 6:17 AM

100% sure. Visit this thread for more info.You might get an answer to your question

im suprised nobody has tried to find a newspaper article on the construction of this thing, i believe it is, just because the hole seems small doesnt really mean a lot, they also may have different ways and methods of how they go about building such structures

kiwi4life Dec 4, 2010 6:10 PM

no news on this one, almost been a month?

Infernal_Elf Dec 4, 2010 7:24 PM

are there absolutely no one from India here on the forum ?

someone looking for an exotic holiday please go to Mumbai and check the site :D

Ahh very cool thanks for finding that scalziand seems like the India tower will have a base very similar to the Burj khalifah where one side can take up the wind load from the two others. kinda almoust like an Y shape really

kiwi4life Dec 6, 2010 2:52 AM

sweet!!! thanks for the pics! great to hear, just what we wanted to see

Btw, the site of India tower is larger than that of Shanghai tower.
Nevertheless, when completed this is how India Tower will stand in the skyline

The tower looks like it's in the middle of the slums.
