Easily the nicest new supertall in China after the SWFC.

Yes this tower is definitely great. What the trump tower should have been I think.

Impressive. Almost everything Trump Chicago ought to have been but wasn't.

You can draw a lot of parallels between this building and Trump Chicago. The height and shape are almost identical.

I'm shocked at the number of people that say that this is "what Trump wishes it could be." It is certainly an interesting tower, but I think Trump is a lot nicer looking. This thing is just too... gaudy.

As someone else said already though, this tower would probably look terrible in Chicago and vice versa. So it all works out in the end.

The domination of Greenland Plaza on the skyline is impressive.
Well done !

Sorry but I don't like this one at all. The proportions are very odd and I don't go for the snake scale cladding.

Something about this one...it just carries its weight strangely. It looks fine from some angles and bad from others. I like all the facade treatments just not together and not on this buildings.

I like it but not nearly as much as the SWFC or Jin Mao.
