To mark the 20th anniversary of freedom in the Republic, One Eternal Nation Square (Yongguo Chang), a large plot, is to be opened to an architecture competition, with the National Administration for Public Buildings.

These will be government offices and commerical property but there is a height limit of 70 storeys.

The Administration will be paying highly, and welcomes any submissions.

To increase our global empire, we at Dredsco Oil Inc. are offering to buy a small portion of this new building (once its completed, of course) for use as a regional headquarters.

Xiang Gang would be interested in even the crudest of sketches.

A number of prominent Slaytaniccan architects have expressed an interest, and we've proposed to hold our own competition and to submit the winning design or designs, if you are interested!

The project is comprised of two joined towers, the taller 62 stories high, the smaller 42 stories, over 1,100,000 square feet of office, retail and parking for 1,200 cars. The tower would rise to an impressive 850 feet, with the spire reaching nearly 1100 feet.

We await your decision =)

This building would be 2,313 ft tall or 705 meters. It would have 160 floors and would include a 2 million square foot mall and a residential street developement.

At least one prominent Callisdrunian architect has expressed interest in submitting a design for such a building.

OOC: Is it ok if the pic takes a while? I draw all my stuff out, so it might be a couple days.

Take as long as you need.

At the moment, The Voltarum is the front-runner.

I, the founder of Alucardus, Grand Duke Alucard the Architect, wish to lend my knowledge in the discipline of architecture. I am responsible for the Grand Ziggurat of Shinji, in the Alucardian steppes. A can submit floor plans and a rendering by the new year.

Xiang Gang will, of course, wait.

One of our most esteemed architects has requested to draw up a design for your aniversary building and is the very same responsible for some of the most breathtaking structures in modern Izumo, Aranor and Midgare.

If you wish to accept, he can begin work immediately.

bump? or did I win =)

I shall design a tower, a mile high, that's thick enough around to support the weight. It will have a giant laser on top to fry people with. Also it's easy to escape from, due to a large number of stairs leading around the outside.

The nation of Hiroshiko wishes to purchase a portion of land in order to construct a tower for the republic of Xiang Gang.

Hiroshikan engineers will construct a 60 story building with four long, external segments on the sides. It will be attached to the building to provide stability and reinforcement. The building will be comprised of 45% concrete and the rest glass and reflective material. The tip of the building will have an observatory deck that revolves to give a panorama view of the city. The spire will host various weather and communications instruments. There will be 4 underground levels of parking and space for underground mass transit. Also, the building will be divided into sects. The first 30 stories will be dedicated to commerical ventures while the next 30 stories will be dedicated to administrative offices.

The building, including the spire, will be about 785 ft in height.

In regards,
Ryusen Takugawa, Supreme Chancellor of Hiroshiko
