GUANGZHOU, CHINA-Poly Real Estate Co. Ltd., a government-owned real estate firm here, has selected the master plan made by Chicago-based Goettsch Partners for its new seven-building mixed-use project in the Pazhou district here. The developer is planning almost five million square feet of office, retail, multifamily and hotels for this site.
According to a Goettsch spokesman, the buildings will all face each other in a circle at varying heights, with one much taller than the rest. This 2.5-million-square-foot section will feature offices, a hotel and an adjoining apartment tower. Another three office buildings will hold about one million square feet. Two more towers, totaling 1.5 million square feet, will have offices and another hotel.
Retail and restaurants will be along the circular lower court. A large public plaza will include a fountain. Some of the buildings will be connected via sky bridges. Pathways from the site will connect to the area’s subway lines.
This is the fourth project that Goettsch is doing for Poly Real. Other projects include a two-million-square-foot, mixed-use development in Deyang, including hotel, office, conference, and cultural functions; a 200-meter-tall office building in Shunde; and a two-tower, two-million-square-foot office complex in Chengdu.
