With the final phase of the development completed in 2012, the Phoenix City development has become a unique urban composition that marks a new stance on the Beijing skyline but has successfully stitched a new natural setting with its surrounding neighbors.

Bearing strong axial relationships to surrounding blocks and view corridors, Phoenix City is literally a city within itself, connected through a series of architectural moves that tectonically work to create varying degrees of scale and materiality that harmonize with the vibrant life within the block and beyond.
