Bigger is better, developer decides midway

WUHAN - A developer is trying to revise the design of a skyscraper already under construction to make it the tallest building in China, but the city planning authority said it has not gone through any required procedure yet.

Plans for the 606-meter-high Greenland Center, being built in the downtown Wuchang area of Wuhan, capital of Central China's Hubei province, would be altered to make it China's tallest building.

Lu Zhenxing, marketing director for Hubei province at Greenland Group, a real estate developer in Shanghai, told China Daily that they are studying a new plan to heighten the Greenland Center from 102 to more than 125 floors so that it would replace Shanghai Tower (632 meters) as the nation's tallest skyscraper.
