Thanks for all the photos, Scalziand. I was never too crazy about his building's proportions, but looking up from the street, this one is truly a stunner. Looks like it goes on forever!

many people have said this tower looks really "fat." This is true for us on our diagrams page, but in the real world, complete side-views of buildings as tall as this one are very rare (unless you are a pilot). The "fat" effect is really striking from street level, as i imagine it was intended to be. It plays with your mind a little bit and makes this thing look even taller than it already is.
The building started construction in 2010 after a tumultuous approvals process. It took 15 years for Lotte to secure a building permit due to conflicts with a military airfield south of the city. In order to avoid blocking the flight path, Lotte agreed to fund a project that shifted the angle of the runway. Today, the building is topped out, having reached its final height in December 2015. Photos by Flickr user Inno Inno show the building's monumental impact on the cityscape. Construction on the long-awaited development is expected to finish this year.
