After more than a decade of delays, China’s tallest building Shanghai World Financial Center is slicing through Shanghai’s hazy, skyscraper-studded skyline — a new trophy built by a Japanese property tycoon Mori Building Co.. The 101-story Shanghai World Financial Center, a 1,614 foot wedge-shaped tower (shorter than 1667-foot high Taipei's 101 Building) with a rectangular hole at the very top, was topped out Friday September 14 as its last beam was laid.
Sparked by welding work, a fire broke out in an elevator shaft on the 40th floor of the building and was extinguished after more than an hour in August.
