Plaque declaring Haitian Center "Tallest Building in Shandong Province"

 

In June 2020, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) verified the 369-meter Haitian Center Tower 2 as the tallest building in Shandong Province, China with an official signboard.

On behalf of CTBUH, Jiaqi Qu, Associate Director, CTBUH China Office, presented the official notification of “Tallest Building in Shandong Province of China.” The building is the first in Qingdao to reach this height. Its owner, QingDao Conson Hai Tian Center Co., Ltd., is the first company in Shandong Province to join CTBUH.

The Haitian Center Complex is located at 48 Hong Kong West Road, Qingdao, the original site of the Haitian Hotel. It is close to Fushan Bay, overlooking the cultural features of Badaguan building complex in the west, and Wusi Square, the Olympic Sailing Center and the Hong Kong Road business district in the East.

Based on the overall concept of "international standards, domestic first-class, coastal leading," the under-construction project plans to complete three towers, with a total construction area of 490,000 square meters. The urban complex integrates seven primary functions, namely: a Super-5A-class office building, the five-star Haitian Hotel, the St. Regis hotel in Shandong Province, the Cloud Art Center, an observation deck, the Cloud Diamond Club, the Haitian Mall and Haitian Mansion. Guided by the principles of "green Haitian," “scientific and technological Haitian," “humanistic Haitian” and “intelligent Haitian," the project adopts a number of the world's leading technical standards.

 

On behalf of CTBUH, Jiaqi Qu, Associate Director, CTBUH China Office, presented the official plaque confirming Haitian Center Tower 2 as the “Tallest Building in Shandong Province of China" to Liqing Qu, Principal Engineer, QingDao Conson Hai Tian Center Co., LTD.
