New Photos Reveal 'World's Tallest Atrium' in Beijing
By Justine Lopez
New photos were recently released of Leeza SOHO, which is currently being constructed in downtown Beijing.
Leeza SOHO is expected to reach its full height of 679 feet next month, and construction on the building will be completed in 2018.
It won’t be the tallest structure in Beijing – not by a long shot. But it will house the world’s tallest central atrium which will stretch 623 feet high and will be open to the public once construction is complete.
The project is being completed by Zaha Hadid Architects and SOHO China. Other collaborations between the two companies have been Galaxy SOHO, Sky SOHO and Wangjing SOHO.
New images of Leeza SOHO depict just how impressive the 1.86-million-square-foot structure already is.
