GP unveils design for mixed-use complex in Guangzhou

Goettsch Partners (GP) has unveiled its design for a 300,000m² mixed-use complex in Guangzhou that will include a 21-storey hotel tower at its heart.

Poly 335 Financial Center, which is being developed by Poly Real Estate Group, will bring new homes, offices, shops, hospitality spaces and a landscaped central courtyard to the Zengcheng district of the rapidly growing Chinese city.

The phased development is being anchored by a 60-storey, 142,000m² office tower promising flexible, column-free interiors. Meanwhile, two 57-storey residential towers will line the southern perimeter of the site.

The neighbouring hotel tower will incorporate meeting rooms, dining facilities and a fitness centre intended to blend seamlessly with a three-level, 42,000m² retail mall at its base. This mall will offer restaurants and lounges, outdoor terraces, a cinema with an IMAX theatre, and a green rooftop that will be open to the public.

“The Poly 335 Financial Center complex will establish a new standard of international quality for the Zengcheng region,” says James Zheng, co-CEO and President of Goettsch Partners. “It will serve as a visual landmark for the area and further enhance Poly’s real-estate portfolio in the rapidly expanding region.”

Development of the complex is expected to complete in 2023.
