Other pictures

I also uploaded these two other pictures of the Tower, as it was last August 31, but I think the one that is in the article now is the best. If these pictures are useful, please use them.Ferox Seneca (talk) 13:39, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

False information

"In 2013, it was alleged that the Shanghai Tower, along with numerous other large Chinese buildings, had been constructed with salt-rich concrete – a potentially serious corrosion risk to the tower's structural steel components."

The source webpage actually only alleges certain buildings in a single city (Shenzhen) to have this problem and does not to any other. Please remove this sentence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.132.255 (talk) 03:47, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Agreed, unsubstantiated and irresponsible rumour from another province. Salt in concrete sand is a serious defect, and would be caught by any QC.

EditRequest

My name is Leah and I work for Gensler. I noticed there was an error on this page. I realize I have a clear conflict of interest so I wanted to flag for the community first before I make any transparent edits. The article should read that Jun Xia led the design team for this project. The others are incorrect and cannot be cited. Additionally, if we listed architects and other positions the list would become unwieldy – it’s easily cited to just list Jun Xia as the leader of the design team.

Here are citations for consideration:

• Gensler’s Secret Sauce, Metropolis Magazine, June 2013 [1]
• University of Colorado Alumni Spotlight [2]
