The one on the very top of this page is awesome. Even though this will be taller, the Jin Mao will still be the best in Shanghai. The WFC will be a nice tower though.

Yeah, I think the Jin Mao is an underrated skyscraper, the design is so complicated.

Jin Mao represents a more classic approach. SWFC is a cleaned up modern look. Both are beautiful but in the end for me that is I like SWFC. It will be the preimier building of the city. Can't wait until it is opened up to the public and photos are taken from the top.

BTW, are there going to be glass elevators in SWFC?

I think that the corners elevators going straight up to the top will give some sight through the windows

very nice pictures Skymyhusband. Wonder if anybody knows if the fire a few days ago had delayed construction on this one at all or is it still going ahead as planed?
