The tower was completed in 2011, marking Tianjin's shift from an industrial port city toward an international business center. This construction reflected the city's growing role in China's economic expansion during the early 2000s.
The tower, designed by Skidmore Owings Merrill, represents the fusion of Chinese economic growth with international architectural expertise in the 21st century.
The building can be accessed through several entrances, and visitors can reach it easily using public transportation from nearby stations. Most areas are accessible during business hours, with visitor zones clearly marked throughout.
The structure incorporates advanced wind resistance features through its geometric design, allowing it to withstand strong coastal storms and typhoons. This engineering approach keeps the building stable even during extreme weather events common to the region.
