Scheduled to open in Shenzen, China in 2016, this new super-skyscraper will be the country’s tallest at 1,965 feet. The building’s completion marks Shenzen’s rise in population: In 35 years, the city’s population has grown from 300,000 to 10 million. Its sleek stainless steel façade will resist salt corrosion, and the columns provide both visual interest and resistance to wind.
