Sorry, but the pictures are not allowed to be captured. Check out the link. What an amazing structure.

I wonder how many Chinese missiles are targeted for it?

From looking at the photo I don't think I'll be awed by tall buildings until they grow at least 3 times taller.

Not as ugly as the proposed Freedom Tower....

That is one beautiful building Doug. It is especially amazing to see it in the second picture against the Tapei skyline.
Maybe we should re-think the Freedom Tower. Its time we reclaimed this title.

Helen Thomas isn't as ugly as the proposed
Dhimmitude Freedom Tower.
I hope Taiwan doesn't have any Muslims, or that'll be a hard building to rent out space in.

Not to worry...
I don't think they terrorize any country until it bends over
backwards to accomodate them moving in and until it encourages them taking over...

Glad to see they had the foresight to top it with a dirigible dock. Looks kind of lonely on the skyline, though.

Even if I were paid a million a window, you wouldn't find me washing them! (Well...maybe I'd do the 1st two floors!);-)

I think going to the top and looking down would probably awe you.
To: bobdsmith
Okay. Here is the largest ever envisioned --- over 13,000 feet.
X-SEED 4000

Looks like an airport flight control tower.
It also looks as out of place as would a Rolls Royce in the ghetto.
