Hard-working laborers doing night shifts. You could say Chinese towers are u/c 24/7.

Ahhh ok Ic It might be listed then I sorted buildings up to 1960 looking for it lol, but there's really no reason to assume it's old just because of the architecture, Interesting though thanks, you just don't see much of them being built within the past 50 years since roughly 1960, I wonder if one of the big reasons is cost over being other things, but others too deff

I get nervous about curing time when they surpass one floor every four days. But I have heard of one floor every three days.

I wasn't very excited for this, but the cladding is really starting to look nice the higher up this goes, now we just need to see how the setbacks look.

Looks like a very high class project, with that cladding.

Apparently this building might be getting the fastest elevators in the world: Hitachi to build 'world's fastest' lift in China

72km/h?!?
1st to 95th floor in 43 seconds?!?
"people suffer some pain"?!?

Aye carumba!
