Pearl River skyline to be graced by 488-m landmark

A 488-meter-tall landmark – to be constructed near the Yufengwei Metro Station in the Huangpu Lin'gang Economic Zone – will grace the skyline of the development belt along the Pearl River for the city of Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong province.

Over the past dozen years, Guangzhou has established a development belt consisting of Zhujiang New Town, Guangzhou International Financial City and the Huangpu Lin'gang Economic Zone along the Pearl River, according to the Guangzhou municipal planning and natural resources bureau.

Ships load up at the Huangpu Lin'gang Economic Zone.

The skyline of the development belt will feature an ultra-high cluster of high-rises centered on the Huangpu Port CBD at a height of 488 m and the Guangzhou International Financial City at 450 m, as well as a second cluster centered on the Chebeinan Metro Station, some 330 m tall and the Sanxi Metro Station, standing 260 m high.

A gateway of Guangzhou for scientific and technological innovation, the Huangpu Lin'gang Economic Zone will combine with Guangzhou International Financial City to become a high-end cluster of innovative finance, information services, science and technology, professional services and blockchain finance. It will have close connections with the cities of Shenzhen and Hong Kong and exert a great influence over Dongguan.
