Both the WFC and Jin Mao are amazing structures. However; SWFC is just 1 massive tower and works well with the Shanghai landscape.

The Chemist,

I don't know its name, but yeah it is pretty nice. Very special facade. Perhaps z0rg knows more about it.

It is not completely finished and will open on Sept. 1st. I don't know if the mods want to wait for that to move it to the Existing Buildings forums (don't worry, we'll keep posting pictures there). That would be fine with me.

Why would we? Less people would comment this forum if moved. Awesome pic staff.

Because there are differnt sections and if people want to look at a finished building then they go to the exsiting buildings forum.
people will get confused if it stayed here.

Yes but if people can read then they will see that the tower is actually U/C in this thread.

Great pic staff. The glass looks kind of dirty and it would seem like they wouldn't be able to finish cleaning by Sep. 1 but after watching the Opening Ceremony in Beijing, I bet workers will have time to relax before the opening day.
