The Taipei Twin Towers (Chinese: 台北雙子星大樓; pinyin: Táiběi Shuāngzǐxīng Dàlóu) is a supertall skyscraper development in Taipei, Taiwan. Scheduled to be completed in 2027, it includes two skyscrapers, the taller of which is 360 metres (1,181 ft) with 76 floors and the shorter of which is 280 metres (919 ft) with 56 floors. It is located near Taipei Station, Shin Kong Life Tower, and Taipei Bus Station. When the complex is complete, it will be the second tallest building in Taipei and third tallest in Taiwan after Taipei 101 and Kaohsiung's 85 Sky Tower. It is estimated to cost NT$12 billion (US$414 million). The project was originally designed by Japanese architect Fumihiko Maki for the initial 2005 bid that planned to finish constructing the skyscrapers by 2011. However, it was delayed multiples times due to a series of complication in the bidding process, which was restarted in 2018 again for the sixth time.In the latest round of bids, two proposals were submitted. In December 2018 the bid submitted by a consortium led by Hong Kong-based Nan Hai Development Ltd and Malaysian property developer Malton Berhad was named the most favored bidder. The skyscrapers were designed by MVRDV in collaboration with CHY Architecture Urban Landscape to revitalise the central station area in the capital's Zhongzheng District and was to be constructed as a pile of blocks, each fronted by screens that will display "major cultural spectacles, sporting events, and advertising", establishing the area as "a Times Square for Taiwan". In June 2019, the most favored bidder status was revoked by Taiwan's Investment Commission under the Ministry of Economic Affairs due to national security concerns because it found Nan Hai to be Chinese-funded and the majority of its board members hailing from China. The bid was subsequently awarded in December 2019 to the runner-up, a consortium led by Taiwanese computer maker Clevo and its property development affiliate Hongwell Group with designs by American architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP.The basement of building C1 is the terminus for the Taoyuan Airport MRT.
