A new 300-meter-long sky bridge connecting four skyscraper towers at the Safdie Architects-designed Raffles City Chongqing has made its public debut.
The tube-shaped bridge is lifted 250 meters into the sky and contains a bevy of recreational and tourist-oriented programs, including a 270-degree vantage over the city. The viewing deck features an all-glass platform and is currently open with reduced capacity due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The sky bridge represents the marquee attraction at the massive 1,127,000-square-meter development, which also features a multi-story, 220,000-square-meter shopping mall at its base, 1,400 luxury housing units, a hotel, and 150,000 square meters of Grade-A office space, all spread out across eight towers.
Six of the concrete towers rise 250-meters each while the two tallest monoliths reach 350 meters in height. The shopping mall anchoring the district opened late last year.
