Guo-Yan Building BC, 171-meter skyscraper in Lingya District, Taiwan
Guo-Yan Building BC is a residential skyscraper with 41 floors above ground and 5 basement levels that shapes Kaohsiung's downtown area. The structure combines living spaces with a modern design approach to maximize the use of urban land.
The building was completed in 2013 after a three-year construction period by Kuo Yang Construction. This project reflected the demand for modern residential developments in Kaohsiung during that period.
The structure represents Taiwan's vertical residential development approach, addressing population density through modern architectural solutions in urban centers.
The tower is located in an easily accessible urban area of Kaohsiung and stands out due to its height. Visitors can walk around the neighborhood and view the building from different angles throughout the district.
The building ranks among the five tallest structures in Kaohsiung and is among the 20 highest buildings in Taiwan. This standing reflects its significance in the vertical growth of the city and the island.
