Supertall skyscrapers
« on: May 29, 2009, 07:47:12 pm »
I'm quite a fan of architecturally impressive buildings and really enjoy the artistry and beauty of them.

If you are visiting China you might like to have a look at the following :- Supertall Projects & Construction these are huge buildings on a global scale.
Become the change you want today, or all your tomorrows will be like yesterday.

That is what I love about Shanghai , up to 8000 Skyscraper's and some of the most unique building that I ever saw . Makes New York look like a small Town . They got the old and the new all within an two hour drive . My favorite is the Crown Building at night .
The reason I wanted to go over Singapore on my first Trip is especially because I wanted to go to Kuala Lumpor to see the ... damn forgot the name ... Petronia Tower's ... something like that . I had the return flight booked over Taiwan to see the 101 tower . Love tall Building's and Bridges like the new Hong Kong Stonecutter Bridge , wonder's in my Lifetime .

Shenzhen and the surrounding areas has the most diverse skyscrapers I ever laid eyes on. I have always been into interesting unique skyscrapers. At first I would start to take pictures of them I realized that there are hundreds upon hundreds in small concentrated areas. In my neighborhood I have this really cool building that has Greek gods bursting out of one side and some other people entering it. Truly unique and one of a kind. I'm enclosing pix of this building and will start posting pix of buildings as I come across them.

Wow Mike, thats is cool, never saw anything like that before, I just love when architects do the unexpected and make a structure that stands out from the crowd like that, fantastic!.

I wonder if anyone has ever tried to climb up and ride Pegasus.  That would be a picture.

Here are some mediocre buildings. As I take new pix I'll post. I use to have a lot but ended up purging the memory cards whenever ran out of space. Buildings will always be there so they are the first to go.

Now you guys have got me started. Some of these buildings are just ordinary apartment buildings.
