This week we’re heading to Taipei, Taiwan to talk about a building that's over budget, a decade under construction and one of Asia's most important cultural buildings - the controversial Taipei Performing Arts Centre. Later in the episode, we cover two interesting bits of construction news: 5 World Trade Center has been given the green light in Lower Manhattan, NYC (designed by KPF) - 274-metre mixed-use skyscraper AND 55 Bishopsgate has also been given the green light in the City of London (designed by Arney Fender Katsalidis (AFK Studios)) - a 285-metre new skyscraper. We end the show with a Portsmouth-themed email from Ted Jackson-Mount. Get in touch! Podcast@TheB1M.comwww.TheB1M.com <hr> Hosted on Acast.
