Related Special Report on Guangzhou's Bid for 2010 Asiad>>>
Twin towers to be built in Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong Province, are designed to be the tallest buildings in the city, the Guangzhou Daily reported Tuesday (July 13th).
The Guangzhou Urban Planning Bureau invited design plans from 15 national and international firms of architects for the towers, which are scheduled to be completed in time for the 2010 Asiad.
The towers are expected to be 330 to 390 meters tall.
Authorities required 60 percent of the main building, which covers 31,084.96 square meters, to be set aside for offices, and another 30 percent for a 5-star hotel. The competing design plans are to be submitted to the Guangzhou planning bureau before October 15.
The underground space below the towers will have five floors, including parking lots, conference rooms, and commercial areas.
Lines 3 and 5 of the Guangzhou Metro will run by the northwest side of the towers.
