Facts
- The building was previously known as Guangzhou West Tower and had a related project, the proposed Guangzhou East Tower which, at 475 m (1,558 ft), would have been even taller.
- With 103 storeys, the tower has a mixture of uses including office space, a luxury Four Seasons hotel with a top floor high floor high end restaurant and bar. At ground level, the tower connects with a substantial podium complex containing a luxury brand retail mall, conference centre and high quality serviced apartments.
- Conceived as a slender crystalline form, the tower acts as a landmark to Guangzhou Zhujiang New Town?s main axis, linking the commercial district in the north with the Pearl River to the south. Its triangular plan responds to the need for efficient internal space layouts and excellent environmental performance.
