The Shanghai Tower is organized as nine cylindric buildings pile one on top of the other with a double - skinned layer on the exterior . The outside layer is triangular shaped and swivel as it reaches up . Designed by San Francisco - firm Gensler , the tower plans on accommodate offices , a sumptuousness hotel , nine sky - garden and various retail and ethnic venues , as well as a new Shanghai Metro stop .
A luck of phratry over here are saying that no matter how bad the current economic site might get , the chances of this project losing financial support is very slender . Ironically , this is probably due to the Mori Building , whose own construction was halted in its tracks by the Asian Financial Crisis — even if The Shanghai Tower turns out to be a money loser , there ’s no means the Chinese would ’ve fend for having a Japanese building eclipse their soil .
