description | The following skyscrapers are either approved or due to be completed in the near future: . The Lotte Super Tower 123, a mixed-use skyscraper in Seoul, South Korea, will stand 555 meters (1,821 feet) in height (123 floors) upon completion (originally scheduled for 2014 after construction started in 2005, although the project is currently on hold). The tower will house retail space, residences, and a luxury hotel. . Construction of the 133-floor, 640m supertall Digital Media City Landmark Building in Digital Media City, Seoul, South Korea, started in 2009, which will be the second-tallest building in the world when it is completed in 2015, housing the world's tallest observatory and hotels. Being constructed at the fastest speed among major skyscraper projects by South Korea's Samsung C&T (who also built Burj Khalifa), the supertall is the first skyscraper to contain an entire city inside a building, including the world's largest aquarium, a luxury department store, shopping malls, clinic center, high-tech offices, first-class apartments, six to eight-star hotels, a concert restaurant, a broadcasting studio and an art center. • Construction of the Shanghai Tower started on 29 November 2008. The tower will be 632 m (2,073 ft) high and have 127 floors. The building will feature a glass curtain wall and nine indoor gardens when it is completed in 2014. |
