The new cladding is more elegant. The best part of the old one was the columns visible through the curtain wall. But, overall, it was much too classic.

Great skyline filler. Any renders with the building in context of the entire skyline?

It's definitely emerging.
This tower will be a much needed focal point in this area.

Looks pretty good to me!

This is a very beautiful building and will be quite the center of attention at its full height.

Can someone please describe or show with a picture of the skyline where this tower is located. I have never been to HK so i am just assuming that it is to the south of the main high rise cluster (Bank of China, The Centre etc...) or am i way off. (Kowloon side???)

Either way it is going to look extremely tall where it is. I love the look of this building.

Thanks.

Someone else will give you more details, but I can tell you that it's in the HK island, not Kowloon.

The Center, Bank of China and IFC are at the west of the skyline. Then, to the east, Central Plaza, and farther east... One East Island.
