That is amazing news and a HUGE relief... That other design was an abomination... Now not too sure though about when this thing will even get off the ground. 這個項目已經進行了幾年,沒有任何進展。一旦看到現場的建築設備,我會很高興。這將完全改變該區域的動態!

Group takes over Twin Towers
FUNDING:Consortium head Kent Hsu said that 16 local lenders had agreed to provide loans for 60% and his own companies would provide the remaining 40%
By Crystal Hsu / Staff reporter


A local consortium is to take over development of the Twin Towers project near Taipei Railway Station after the original winner of the contract was removed due to national security concerns, the Taipei City Government said yesterday.

The local group — consisting of contract computer maker Clevo Co (藍天電腦) and its property development affiliate Hongwell Group (宏匯集團) — would take over the contract after meeting certain requirements, including submitting NT$1.9 billion (US$62.07 million), it said.

The consortium lost a contest in December last year to another consortium led by Hong Kong-based Nan Hai Development Ltd (南海發展) and Malaysian property developer Malton Berhad.

However, the Investment Commission in July revoked the approval, citing national security concerns.

Nan Hai Development is a unit of Nan Hai Holding Co (南海金控) that owns businesses in China, Hong Kong, North America, Europe and Australia in the culture and media sectors, property development and IT application services.

Nan Hai chairman Yu Pun-hoi (于品海) called the decision unfair and legally shaky, but failed in an attempt to appeal the decision in court.

The Taipei City Government said it would press ahead with the project after it had given Nan Hai sufficient time to submit its appeal.

The city government had previously been unsuccessful in its attempts to find developers for the project valued at NT$60 billion, which has been at the center of a series of bribery scandals over the past 20 years.

The local team welcomed the invitation, saying it has been ready since announcing its decision to enter the bidding last year.

Hongwell earlier said that it would work with US architecture and engineering firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP to build the complex.

The US firm is known for designing iconic buildings, with its portfolio including the One World Trade Center in New York and the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Hongwell said.

Clevo chairman and head of the consortium Kent Hsu (許坤泰) said that 16 local lenders had agreed to provide loans for 60 percent of the construction costs and his own companies would provide the remaining 40 percent.

Hsu added that he has previously made several property investments in conjunction with railway lines and Mass Rapid Transit systems.

The group is responsible for three such projects in Taipei’s Neihu District (內湖) and New Taipei City’s Sinjhuang District (新莊).

The Twin Towers complex would add more than 60,000 ping (198,347m2) of commercial space to the area and create thousands of job opportunities.

“We want to roll up our sleeves and start construction right away,” Hsu said in a statement.

Good to hear. Do you know if they will stick to the original design or want to redesign from scratch?

Constructoin for Taipei Twin Towers Set to Wrap Up 2026|雙子星開發案今簽約 預計115年興建完成

Taipei City Mayor Ko Wen-je and Clevo chairperson and head of the consortium Kent Hsu signed an investment contract on Dec. 17. The Twin Towers complex will be done by 2026, and it is estimated to add more than 60,000 ping of commercial space near the Taipei Main Station area and create 16,000 job opportunities.


The construction bidding for the Taipei Twin Towers failed five times in the past and the project was delayed for 13 years. After I took office, it took me only two and a half years to complete the due legal process. This government is open, everyone can take part, and it's open and transparent. If this is my political slogan, then we should walk the walk first.

Our conglomerate has lot of good resources in the many sectors, including technology, construction, real estate development and operation, and intelligent green architecture. We will be working with the best talent from Taiwan and abroad and build the Taipei Twin Towers with the best design and most diverse elements.

After the public tender for the Taipei Twin Towers project failed five times in 13 years, last year, a foreign consortium led by a Hong Kong media tycoon finally won the development project. However, the bid was later rejected by the government due to national security concerns. This year, the local group consisting of contract computer maker Clevo Co. and its property development affiliate Hongwell Group has decided to take over the contract. The project is valued at around NT$60 billion and would take up to 6 years and 9 months to finish. The new building complex could generate more than NT$100 billion in economic output.



台北市長 柯文哲表示:「雙子星在過去有五次流標,你知道嗎?拖了13年,在我上任之後,大概花了兩年半的時間,去把這個法律程序走完,開放政府、全民參與、公開透明,既然這是一個政治上的理想,我們就要執行自己所喊的口號。」

台北雙星董事長 許崑泰表示:「我們集團在科技製造、建築開發、以及商業不動產經營,以及智慧綠建築系統的所有優勢資源,攜手國內外一流、頂尖的好手,立志要打造一個設計最好、共享多元的台北雙子星。」

雙子星開發案去年由南海馬頓團隊得標,卻因中資爭議,今年被經濟部投資審議會,以國安疑慮為由駁回,主辦機關市政捷運工程局決定次優申請人藍天宏匯團隊遞補,17日完成簽約。本案投資金額達605億,預計6年9個月完工,預計每年可創千億元以上的經濟產值。

Finally some good news in this project.
The design is not as special as the "winner" but I think it look very elegant, especially if they can keep that much green in the lower floors.
It will not over-shine the other historical buildings in Beimen area.
