Eye of Spring Trade Center, Modern commercial complex in Kunming, China.
The Eye of Spring Trade Center is a modern commercial complex in Kunming with two skyscrapers, the main tower standing 407 meters tall across 100 floors of mixed-use spaces. The complex integrates office areas, hotel facilities, and retail zones into a unified development.
The complex belongs to the redevelopment of Dongfeng Square, where the Historic Workers' Cultural Hall was demolished and the square dug up before work began. Two underground metro stations were built on opposite sides of the square. Construction started in 2017, was put on hold in mid-2020, and resumed in 2021; the two towers remain on hold.
The site is Dongfeng Square, where the Historic Workers' Cultural Hall stood before its demolition for the project. Two underground metro stations were built on opposite sides of the dug-up square. The name Eye of Spring refers to Kunming's reputation as the Spring City, and the towers are known locally as Dongfeng Plaza.
The site is an active construction zone on Dongfeng Square, where work began in 2017 and was halted in mid-2020 before resuming in 2021; the towers remain on hold and unbuilt, so there is no interior to enter. Two underground metro stations were built on opposite sides of the square as part of the redevelopment. Expect hoardings and changed pedestrian routes around the dug-up square.
The site was cleared before construction: the Historic Workers' Cultural Hall was demolished and Dongfeng Square dug up to make way for the towers and two underground metro stations on opposite sides of the square. Work began in 2017, halted in mid-2020 and resumed in 2021.
