HA NOI (Biz Hub) – Vingroup is planning to construct the tallest building in Viet Nam that will serve as a landmark along Sai Gon River in HCM City, a company representative revealed in October.

The 81-storey building will serve as a high-end shopping complex with offices and apartments.

It will form part of Vinhomes Central Park, a 43ha project in the Tan Cang Area of Binh Thanh District, which has been undergoing construction since July and is expected to become a new symbol and pride of the city, the representative said.

Inspired by New York's Central Park, the project is one of the most convenient locations in the city, as it is connected by railway and waterways to important areas that are only a few minutes away.

The project, to be completed by 2015, will also include a green, modern and harmonious urban area. Park residents will enjoy quality accommodation and other services including commercial centres, a hospital, a school and a surveillance camera system.

The park will also provide residents with butler service and various forms of entertainment such as an in-door ice rink, children's playgrounds and a swimming pool.— VNS
