SHANGHAI | BEA Financial Tower | 659 FT / 198 M | 42 FLOORS

Vertical lines are back !
I like that.

I just wish it were taller. Except for the supertalls, Pudong area seems to have a plateau of buildings around 200 meters.

Not the most comprehensive picture, but you can get an idea of the height.

[Rise To The Top]

Is this planned to be under 200m? No changes in height? I'll be dissapionted if it actally is 198m.

The glass is much darker than in the rendering

^^I can't see any protective net for the construction workers. Doesn't look very safe.

[Rise To The Top]

That glass looks very slick. That last pic will be very nice when this one is done.
