NOOOO!!!!!! THAT IS HORRENDOUSSSSSSS!!!!! TAIWANESE ARCHITECTS AND DEVELOPERS WANT TO TAKE TAIWAN BACK TO THE 1830s VICTORIAN AGE!!!!!!!!!

agree, and 40 stories is way too much :yuck: esp for Victorian style houses

Agree.
I also don't like this design...I hope they can change it...
But it is the fact that many people in Taiwan like this old european style building...many people want to buy it.
Business is business!
That's why they build this kind of building bigger and bigger....

I will try to ask the construction company to change the design

please also ask all taiwanese architecture companies to design cooler, more modern and contempory buildings; ask the taiwanese developers and businesses not to to be so cheap on their budgets and always cutting costs on design and construction and to hire more foreign architects especially big name ones; and ask the govt. to deregulate the construction industry to allow more foreign architecture firms bid on local projects so they can share expertise with local architects and foster competition thus improving architectural quality in the nation. xie xie!! :tup:

Thanks for posting! I added it to the database now - http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=91575

And here's it's map location - http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/map...34%37&z=18&t=k

I think the construction company will not change the design
Because they are going to build not only one building

They're going to build a couple....!!
King Castle and Queen Castle!!

Maybe...a couple will look better than a lonely one....:)
