Gensler Defies Economic Slump, Breaks Ground on 'China's Tallest Building'

While Dubai struggles to keep from falling apart, as does nearly every major construction project everywhere else in the world, the firm Gensler is attempting to weather the storm and just broke ground on their Shanghai Tower, a massive giant of a skyscraper that is set to be the tallest building in China. Fortunately, the government is backing the building and have claimed that the financing has long been in place, so all that needs to be done is for everything to stay on task and get built as its supposed to (and on-budget, sure, but when was the last time that happened with a project this big?).
