Since they completed all their proposed 400+, 500+, 600+ towers, now they're raising the bar to a 965 meter tall one.

223 floors.......wow.

BTinSF · #4 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 4:58 PM**

But why put them in a sterile, unwalkable, pedestrian-repellant park-like setting? To sell more Hyundais, Daewoos and Kias?

it looks alittle out of place but im happy for seoul

Stephenapolis · #6 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 8:26 PM**

Add 35m to the spire and make it a kilometer high tower.

Now thats not a skyscraper but a spacescraper !!!!

Nowhereman1280 · #8 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 9:35 PM**

This is actually a fairly decent design for such a huge tower, I would have to see better renderings before passing further judgement.

Anyhow, AltinD said that they had completed all their 300, 400, and 500m towers. What towers? I haven't seen these before? Can you post their names so I can get more info on them and some pictures?

It sticks out like a sore thumb if you ask me. Not many supetalls in that city to begin with if any. Well, I guess they gotta start somewhere.

CGII · #10 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 11:07 PM**

How many megatall skyscrapers has Seoul proposed and not built, now?

malec · #11 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 11:23 PM**

Hmm, let's see:

Busan
510m

Daejon
450m

Seoul
615m

Seoul
332m
Apparantly this one's being built

Incheon
610m

Seoul
450m

Ilsan
450m

Busan
Unknown height

Incheon
305m
Actually under construction

Seoul
540m

Incheon
450m

Seoul
540m

Busan
560m

These are all I could find

R@ptor · #12 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 11:33 PM**

Oh...another South Korean supertall proposal

malec · #13 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 11:40 PM**

If they were all of a realistic height, ie most between 300 and 350m with the odd one or two above then I'd believe they'd be built. But it's a bit rediculous that most are above 450m.

malec · #14 Posted **Sep 23, 2007, 11:43 PM**

And another 2:

Because the decision (and ability) to build is not based off whether or not people would like to have it in their city?

He was being sarcastic.
