Luijazui Group announced the completion of the 1,636,000-square-foot mixed-use development in Shanghai.
Qiantan Media Port, a riverside landmark integrating office, hotel, and cultural programs, marks its completion on July 17. The development transforms an empty site in the burgeoning Central Business District of Qiantan into an active entertainment and hospitality destination on the skyline. Home to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, the development is configured as a long, low bar organized to maximize views of the riverside. Designed with a smooth curving form, memorable roofline, and setbacks for landscaped terraces, Qiantan Media Port is a distinctive landmark and representation of growth for the district. Pedestrian pathways connect restaurants and retail establishments activating the public realm to create a vibrant ecosystem.
Qiantan Media Port neighbors a collection of KPF-designed projects, each playing a central role in the transformation of The Qiantan District, from office towers and academic campuses to hotels and residential complexes, together establishing a dynamic and cohesive neighborhood.
