Skyscraper Envy: Shanghai to whip out another big one

According to a 1993 masterplan for the development of the Lujiazui financial zone, there will be three landmark skyscrapers in the area.One of the landmark structures, Jinmao Tower, has been erected, and another, the Shanghai World Financial Tower, is being built. ...
The third skyscraper in Lujiazui financial zone will be adjacent to Jinmao Tower in the north and Shanghai World Financial Tower in the east, said sources with Lujiazui Group, who are responsible for the project.
Since there is no architect, there is no artist's rendition, so we had to create our own for the image above. We think it turned out OK.

Hey, how come there aren't any skyscrapers in Africa?
Oh la la,what's that on the picture...
The "new" building looks better than the rest
Now that's a building design they really should consider. Great views from the top floor corner office, I'm sure.
That structure will fit right in.
