Taipei Twin Towers, Office plaza in Taipei, Taiwan
The Taipei Twin Towers project is a complex featuring two high-rise buildings near Taipei Main Station in Taiwan. The two structures will house offices, retail space, and hotel rooms once complete, while their height will make them prominent landmarks in the city.
Planning began over a decade ago, but political questions and changes in developer companies delayed construction until 2022. Completion is now scheduled for 2029, after a Taiwanese firm took over leadership of the project.
The name refers to the idea of paired structures forming a new entry point to the city. Visitors recognize the towers from a distance and often use them as a reference point when moving through downtown.
The site sits directly next to Taipei Main Station, making access via local transit and regional trains straightforward. Construction fencing and cranes will remain visible in the coming years until work is fully complete.
The towers are planned to have large screens on some exterior sides, showing sports events, cultural programs, and advertisements. These screens will light up the structure at night and give it a dynamic appearance different from other buildings in Taipei.

Everywhere, in deserts, along coasts, and in city centers, new building projects change how cities grow and work. Some build tall towers that change the view, others create whole neighborhoods from scratch. Each project shows different ways of thinking about design, technology, and how people live together. In Saudi Arabia, The Line offers a city without cars that runs through the desert, Trojena gives mountain skiing, and Sindalah builds a new island in the Red Sea. In Dubai, buildings like One Za’abeel, where two towers connect with a hanging bridge, or Dubai Creek Tower that switches the look along the water. In Paris, the Tour Triangle, a glass pyramid in the south, shows how the city considers height and space. These projects are of different sizes and purposes. There are large factories like Oxagon that work on the water, and places to live or work in Jeddah, Zhuhai, and elsewhere. Some are already being built, with the bases and structure going up, others are waiting for permission or funds. Each project aims to meet local needs, whether for more homes, attracting visitors, or trying new ways to build that care for the environment. Together, they show how architects and city planners think about the links between buildings, roads, and daily life around the world.
