Abstract
China is the epicentre of tall-building construction globally. Its ambition in creating vertical urban iconography is spreading from the rich first-tier cities, such as Shanghai and Beijing to the interior, though this is not a new process. The skyscraper has been present in the Shanghai skyline since the end of the 1920s, representing the cosmopolitan spirit of the city, and later its financial power.
