Empire 88 Tower to be new HCMC focal point
Empire 88 Tower to be new HCMC focal point
Empire 88 Tower, part of the Empire City project, is set to become HCM City’s new focal point, sculpting a symbiotic vision of nature and living within city space.
Situated on the central peninsula of the Saigon River, Empire 88 Tower comprises an integrative environment that fuses natural landscape with the rapidly growing metropolis. As a result, new qualities of urban living will emerge in this mixed-use environment of work, life, culture, entertainment and public enjoyment.
The project will comprise three skyscrapers, which will soar above a mountain-shaped, garden-like podium, with the central tower reaching a height of 333m. Its 88 floors will encompass residences, apartments, a hotel and a public observation deck. Breaking open the shaft of the tower and projecting vertical gardens at towering heights, the expressively undulating platforms of the “Sky Forest” will elevate the podium’s urban landscape into the sky. Hovering terraces will cantilever in manifold directions around the tower’s central axis, reaching out into the urban context and the peninsula’s natural surroundings as a gesture of reconciliation between the city and the countryside.Another highlight of the project, the Cloud Space, is located at the very top of the highest tower, with various possibilities to hold events and recreational activities.
In addition to the soaring landmark tower, two accompanying high-rises will comprise more traditional office typologies and residential spaces atop the landscape podium.
Empire City Project is developed by Empire City Limited Liability Company, a multi-national joint venture of prominent names in real estate development in Vietnam, Singapore and Hong Kong – Tien Phuoc Real Estate JSC, Keppel Land Ltd., Gaw Capital Partners and Tran Thai Lands Co., Ltd.
