When the building was start to built, Tianjin was one of the richest cities in China and a prosperous industrial center. At that time, Tianjin was considered to be the fifth first tier city in China, which is why many real estate developers chose to invest in Tianjin and the building was built. However, since 2014-2015, the industrial development here has slowed down and the population and economy have shown negative growth, Now Tianjin even ranks low in second tier cities.
天津发展缓慢的原因是，太过于自我保护

yes, tianjin‘s economy is one of the key reason. Bad planing and diction making is another key cause.

I’m from Tianjin :]
I traveled to Tianjin often for work from 2012-17. Initially, seeing it from central Tianjin, i thought it was just another skyscraper. I eventually visited the area of western TJ where the project is located. Only then was I able to appreciate the stunning height of this building & wondered how such a massive project would fare in a 2nd tier city.
There are many supertall buildings in 2nd tier cities even third tier.

Tianjin is a huge megacity, and will not tolerate insults like this!
Tianjin is not an industrial city, it's a megalopolis, but it's in the industrial district nonetheless.
@@kb9880 The economy of Tianjing actually decline. The gdp growth rate of Tianjing is almost the lowest in China. Net population inflows are also negative. But Tianjing is still the scond largest city in North of China.
The Empire State Building went through a similar ordeal. Was built during The Great Depression in a location unideal for office buildings at the time, was built at it's height mainly to get the world record height, and cost $40 mil, but only made $1 mil the first year. Most floors were empty and employees in lower offices would turn on lights to make it look like the building wasn't a loss to the eyes of the public.
No. You are mistaken. To be similar The Empire State would have to be constructed in Staten Island, not Manhattan!!🤣🤷🏼
offices mostly empty when it opened : hence its nicknames "Empty State Building" or "Empire du Vide" back in the day.
it was empty but finished; not the same thing
The exterior cladding of the building should be completed so that the interior structure is protected from the elements,, you don't want the skyscraper falling down because its rebar corroded away.
I agree. I don't understand why projects like these that even if they don't have the funds to finish things, why they wouldn't get enough money together to at least finish the outside and keep the interior protected so that perhaps someone else down the road can take over a decent condition building.
@@tellucas well, as per the video, it says that thay can't pre-sell properties because it's forbidden to sell units that aren't fully finished.
It's an impressive structure - I've seen it in person - but it is sad to see it sitting like something frozen in time.
if the economy goes up, it will do the job, just have to wait for a long time...

Why should state pick up the losses resulting from the company's wrong decision. If the company make a profit, the company will take it all.
Man I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that building. You know it's gonna fall anytime.
A structure that tall feels like it would be a safety hazard if left uncompleted. Even with the solid core making it unlikely to collapse, just imagine window panes getting blown out from uncompleted floors and raining down on inhabitants below during a terrible storm.
Thank You Mr. Doom & Gloom! Try POSITIVE thoughts for once in your life!
You make a valid point. A number of safety issues happen when mechanical equipment like those cranes on top not get used...rust sets up and eats away at cables, metal. And the final roof not being finished has to be an issue just like any house being built needs it's roof completed.
Scary too tall!!

The reason it has never been finished is simple. In it's current state of construction it is in perfect aesthetic balance with the rest of Tianjin. Have you been to Tianjin. I lived there for a year. It is a shithole.
Now with a 600m turd monument....they should paint it brown.
@Sherri T[A]P Me!! To Have [S]EX With Me It 's not a second rate industrial city. It's the bedroom of Beijing. It also happens to be a shithole. Maybe one day they will stop burning coal in the northeast (of china) and it will be a nicer place to live. Perhaps they will finished it then.

Building projects like this one remind me why I’ve fallen out of love with skyscrapers lately. It’s little more than a vanity project, and all of the money used to build this stagnant stick to the sky could’ve been better spent elsewhere.
Given that most buildings fall to ruin in 50-100 years, the investment just isn't worth it.
Ikr it's a stupid dumb tower of steel and glass
Money that makes money isn't wasted. Money poured into the bottomless pit of social programs always is.
When they are that tall they are mostly frame and core with barely any space for people. It really is just a stagnant stick to the sky.
@@Automedon2 you mean men women and children who have less and are suffering to survive? That is a waste of money and they deserve to die you say?

Damn, that's such a cool scene. The skeleton of the building looks like some space elevator thing rising from the skyline of a city on Mars.
Definitely cooler than any finished skyscrapers.
Wish I understood economics so I could understand how a skyscraper, which is 90% complete, could just be abandoned like that.
It's because of construction flaws. The concrete crumbles because of cutting costs. There is videos showing new building that had to be evacuated. Poor building codes.
Me too, but that's also why we have an unfinished highspeed train with one completed station stop in California that has already exceeded the entire cost of funding (68 billion) on which construction has stopped, but the California taxpayers are still paying.
@@tenabarnes3269 That's different! Not due to construction flaws, but Democrat greediness!
What’s hard to understand about running out of money? I assume that the company that was actually building it went broke, so there is nobody to pursue to get it completed or demolished.
@@marks4471 the construction "flaws" were caused by greedy business men using cheaper materials and cutting corners when the building was designed and pushing the project through without the final study . By the way, in the late seventies and through the eighties there were many greedy businessmen in both the Democrat and Republican parties .

Wow, I used to follow this one's construction back in the beginning. I had totally forgotten its existence.
The way they measure these "tallest" buildings by adding whatever skinny antenna they put on top doesn't make any sense. Wireless is now all interlocked cells rather than one large broadcast tower so they are all just for decoration. It's like saying Slash is 6'4" because he wears a top hat.
Radio still uses the big towers, and I imagine it does help in dense urban environments to have multiple. Lot fewer people listening to radio now though.
@@szurketaltos2693 and broadcast TV, when the World Trade Center went down we lost all TV stations except CBS, because they never moved from the Empire State Building.
Yah. Without Spire, PNB 118 in Malaysia will not be in the top 10
Actually until the new 1 World Trade Center somehow cheated by calling their antenna a “spire”, an antenna wasn’t counted for the buildings full height, the Sears/Willis Tower in Chicago is only counted up to the roof, The massive antennas are excluded from the record.
Glad i wasn't the only one bothered by this !

This reminds me of the Oceanwide Plaza Complex in Downtown LA. Construction stopped on it in late 2019. The reason was for debt and not enough money to continue. The exterior was almost completely finished. The interior construction was put on hold. Now dtla residents have to see the Oceanwide eye sore next to Staples Center.
I remember seeing this building from across town, on the 70th floor. We called it the "Yao Yao Qi[chi]" ...117. and that was in 2015
Seems to be the fate of Tianjin in particular. 20 years ago I worked there for 2-1/2 years for Motorola. At the time there were at least 6 buildings over 30 floors where the construction had halted and they were left uncompleted. Speculation building is routine in China but this has to be the most extreme example.
Yep! It was a common sight, but mostly of them if not all later got auditioned off and all the ones I can remember are up and running (not sure how well they are doing though)
ruclips.net/video/gRAQYnhhWu0/видео.html
Also in Chengdu there are many building like this that have nearly finished but have remained unfinished for nearly 5 years. Unlike Tianjin, these buildings were in prime locations near subway intersections. It seems like such a waste to have unfinished buildings in the locations.
Have you been back since? You wouldn’t recognize Tianjin anymore, it’s shocking how quickly they throw up buildings here.
It is on the same side of town as Motorola was. Over 30 Tianjin government officials, have gone to jail recently for bribery. It may just be a political move by Xi but I am sure from personal experience they were dirty. Our company sent out many red envelopes to officials to get things done.
It’s a way to wrap outside with safety escape.
What does it mean
If their building codes are anything like Miami’s, they just left an abandoned, oversized Jenga puzzle.
This is like taking out a loan to build a house you hope to repay by renting it, but then you lose your job. Fascinating to see financial gambles on such a grand scale.
Yes here in America the government bails out the big investors that make such a large boo boo.

Shame it wasn't able to be finished. I hope they are able to finish it in the not too distant future. There is a pretty big one over in the Binhai area with more to come it seems.

They need to do a video on how exactly someone would go about demolishing a building that big. even if it fell perfectly in line to the ground the rubble pile would probably be a dozen or so floors high.
They would probably have to take it apart just like they built it.
It’s possible but extremely expensive and who’s gonna pay for that, it’s going to stand there for a very long time weather its operational or not
My family is an investor of this property. 😂
So basically, when the new district was proposed, the new mayor of TianJing gave a promising future of the project. He has been government official in Fujian province for a long time with lots of connection with real estate businessperson in Fujian, so most of investors were from Fujian. However, those investors thought this would be a free money for them, the government didn't back the project as promised.
Rationally saying, the new district is very embarrassing consider its position. It is too close to Beijing making it hard to distinguish itself. Plus, Tianjing's main city is developed enough that they don't really need to expand to a new district.
The new district proposed was supposed to be a financial center of Tianjing, while the location of it is too close to Beijing which is already a mature financial center. There is just not incentive for investors to invest money here. Plus, the land in this project was pushed very high because they blindly believe this is going to be successful. Right now, investors of this project is waiting the government to bail out. Unlikely to happen in near future. LOL

There is a political angle to the project as well. Tianjin is the hometown of Wen Jiabao, China's former premier.

Now with him gone, and the city no longer getting preferential treatments, it has fallen on hard times.

This building would be one of a majestic building
As the years stack up this project will have less and less chance of revival. Much of the steel and structural materials will have been compromised due to corrosion and have to be replaced. That is a lot more complicated and expensive than just finishing out the last few floors.
