Taipei 101
Discovery Channel did a show about the new Skyscraper being
built in Taipei right now. It looks amazing, and I can't wait
to see it. Supposedly they continue construction 24 hours
a day with robotic computer controlled placement of the floor
plates. There is an interior space with wide spans in the
shape of a dragon's rib cage. The counterweight is a steel
sphere weight an unbelievable 3 million pounds and I think
there will be an observation room to see the giant sphere.
Anyway, it looks very cool so far. I'll save future comments
until I see it next week.
