The building, called Zhongguo Zun (China Zun), will be shaped like a zun, an ancient Chinese wine vessel, although the word can also mean “honorable” – will be the headquarters of state-owned Citic Group, according to the organizing committee of the Beijing Central Business District Commercial Festival to be held next week.
CITIC Group, which won the rights to the land in the Central Business District (CBD) with a bid of 3.6 billion yuan ($563 million) last December, plans to build a 510-meter-high (1,673 ft) office tower with 108 floors above ground and four basement levels, surpassing the 509m (1,670 ft) Taipei 101 Tower, currently the world’s third-tallest building, and 492 m (1,614 ft) Shanghai World Financial Center, the current fourth.
The committee said the building will have the texture of woven bamboo, while the top of the building will look like a flying lantern, both traditional Chinese symbols.
The capital’s tallest building now is Tower 3 of China World Trade Center, which is 330 meters (1,083 ft) tall and is also in the CBD.
The building will dwarf most of the world’s current skyscrapers, save the 828m Burj Khalifa in Dubai and the 601m Abraj Al-Bait Towers in Saudi Arabia, but will soon be outdone by other Chinese high-rises.
The Shanghai Tower, designed to reach an eventual height of 632m in Pudong’s Lujiazui area, has already risen to the 20th floor and will be ready for use in January 2015.
And Shanghai-based Greenland Group is to build a 606m building (Wuhan Greenland Center), ultimately the world’s third-tallest, in Wuhan, Hubei Province, within five years.
Modern skyscrapers are mushrooming across China. More than 200 above 150m are under construction, according to a survey.
Even some less populated Chinese cities and villages plan to build skyscrapers.
Fangchenggang City in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has fewer than 1 million residents, yet it plans to build a 528m Asian International Financial Center, taller than the Shanghai World Financial Center.
Huaxi Village, in east China Jiangsu Province, once China’s richest village, is to start building a 328m-high hotel next month which will be the eighth highest building in China and the 15th in the world when completed.

超过国贸三期 510米北京第一楼“中国尊”将开工
北京第一高楼纪录将被刷新,9月中旬,中信集团将在CBD核心区开工奠基约510米的总部大楼“中国尊”,预计5年完成,建成后将超越330米的国贸三期成为北京第一高楼。在CBD核心区中,“中国尊”位于整个区域中间地带北端,北侧是光华路,南侧是规划绿地。
从效果图上看,区别于北京超高层建筑常见的直线形态,“中国尊”自下而上自然缩小,到中间后逐渐放大,最终形成中部略有收拢的双曲线建筑造型。顶部 空间设计取自“孔明灯”的形态意象。根据设计方案,这一建筑地下4层、地上118层,功能空间包括办公、公寓、酒店3种,最高层的顶部为全玻璃幕墙,可在 新的北京之巅俯瞰京城。
与全球已建成的摩天大厦相比,“中国尊”的高度仅次于阿联酋的迪拜塔,名列第二。目前,设计高度超过510米的在建高楼中,仅中国就有7座,正在建 设的上海中心大厦,高度达632米;而深圳、武汉、重庆、厦门、天津等城市都在规划超过500米的高楼, 因而“中国尊”的设计高度在中国仅能跻身“八强”。
