What an awesome frame. Just from looking at the construction one could think it was being built somewhere in Europe. Great addition, I hope the cladding looks as good as the renders.

Sweet Jesus! Those corner columns are huge! I love the skeleton of this building! So intricate and clean. And it's starting to shape up now, I can't wait to see the whole structure complete. It's kinda hard to believe it'll be over 1000 ft. It's so wide from the front and so thin from the side that it looks like it would be around 800 ft. This thing is going to be a monster!

It seems that nothing will stop China's skyscraper boom.
