Living Shangri-La rises to a height of 201 meters with 62 floors above ground and 7 underground levels, featuring glass and steel construction throughout the structure.
The construction of this mixed-use tower began in 2005 and reached completion in January 2009, with an investment of approximately 350 million Canadian dollars.
