The green bridge connect to most of city block, and continue to the renovated air port runway park to sustain a green city with existing natural water system. Land mark tower: he proposition of the 500m high rise skyscraper is for the southern urban neighborhood of Nanjing city, China. The site is on the upcoming High Speed railway station, central business district area. The idea to build a landmark tower in the zone celebrates the notion of the incredible advancement and ongoing development over the last decade in the historic city of Nanjing. The inception of the form of the tower is inspired from the famous plum blossom of Nanjing. The petals of the flowers are formulated as usable floor spaces, while spaces in between could be used as green vegetation’s or green terraces for leisure. The idea is to combine urban living and nature together in one space. The tower is mixed use in nature, accommodating a hotel, office spaces, residential units and commercial space, which is analogous to a mini city called vertical city with farming. The eco tower is designed with a sustainable approach, integrating and implementing state of the art, energy harnessing and energy optimizing measures all throughout. To name a few of the advanced techniques projected in the design are, the application of green house for energy harnessing and air filter, waste water treatment/ gray water reuse, installation of wind turbines on the south east and north east high velocity wind zone and not to forget the green terraces which grows on the tower like an organic pattern.
