Le monde en construction

[monctezuma]

 

à gauche se trouve le chantier de Shanghai Tower, 128 étages (632 m)

 

En voilà une qui date de la semaine dernière !

 

La première photo est le chantier de la tour de 128 étages.

La deuxième photo, regardez à droite, je ne sais pas si ces 2 tours en construction doivent éventuellement se rejoindre en haut ?

 

Troisième photo : une très grande tour en construction mais qui semblait si petite vue de si haut (j'étais dans le point d'observation du Shanghai World Financial Center ou SWFC)

Non, elles sont presque terminées.

Ces tours ont poussé extrêmement vite, si je me trompe pas c'étaient les 2 grues à droite sur cette photo :

L'ancien aeroport de Hong Kong:

 

 

Un immense territoire a redevelopper.

 

La ville la plus dense du monde pourrait acceuillir 300,000+ nouveaux citoyens sur ce terrain! C'est fou!

faudra penser à garder des terres agricoles ou des jardins urbain pour les nourrirent...

KEO chosen to design unique monorail system for King Abdullah Financial District

 

 

The King Abdullah Financial District is a new development currently being undertaken by Rayadah Investment Company in Saudi Arabia in an effort to transform Riyadh’s burgeoning financial sector. The project is set to include over 40 towers, alongside all the major facilities, amenities, utilities and transport networks necessary in a modern business environment. Public transport connecting the district will feature a unique monorail system with all buildings, systems and six stations integrated and linked together by a self-sustained air-conditioned skywalk system enabling pedestrian access to the entire development.

 

 

KEO International Consultants has been awarded the contract by Saudi Oger Ltd. to design the 3.5 km elevated rail viaducts, switch bridges, long span bridges and 131 piers supporting the monorail train system, Station 1 and the Train Maintenance Depot. KEO deliverables include the detailed design of over 30 bridges as well as complete architectural and engineering design for the train maintenance depot and Station 1. KEO intend to carefully consider critical factors such as durability and maintenance, constructability, aesthetics, materials, economy of structural solution, and whole life cycle costs.

 

KEO will team up with Bombardier, Freyssinet and Scott Wilson to deliver the project for Saudi Oger Limited, which was awarded the contract by the Rayadah Investment Company - the investment vehicle of the Public Pension Agency of the government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Design completion for the project is expected in 2011 with construction expected to be substantially finished in 2012.

I would so love to visit... Singapore and Hong Kong some day. I wouldn't mind visiting Riyadh and Dubai, not sure how that would work out.

 

I forgot if its Algeria or Libya having a large billion dollar development. Seeing my father met a few business men from there looking for developers from here to go work there for a few years and get the projects off the ground. So I guess if anyone traveling there or knows someone from there, they should try and find out.

 

I am just laughing at the picture from Mecca. Aren't the minarets suppose to be always taller than buildings?

Was voted one of the ugliest building in NY.

 

They have an interesting feature. Certain or all units have an elevator just for their cars.
