Doesn't the CN Tower have a 100 and something floors? But almost all aren't habitable. And the Space Needle here in Seattle actually has 60 something floors but only 5 are in use.

So, ummm. I'm dumb. Is this a free-standing structure, a mast, or what?

View of the Guangzhou main CBD from the TV Tower at current level of 300m. Most of the buildings in this stretch will be supertalls. The tall building furthest away is the CITIC Plaza.

Damn! I remember seeing the renderings for the new 'Lujiazui of the south' ages ago. It looks like it's all coming together.

Did this site get hot with the big ice storm blast? It would be cool to see some pics.

The ice storm didn't reached that far south. If Guangzhou was covered in ice I'd be getting ready for the end of the world.

Must be very close to the narrowest part of the tower right now. Seems to be expanding out again from here on up?
