A ground-breaking ceremony was held for Guangzhou Infinitus Plaza in Baiyun New Town, Guangzhou, China, on Nov 15.
The property is sited on the plot of land acquired by LKK Health Products Group (LKKHPG) for RMB2.01 billion ($414.6 million) in May. Guangzhou Infinitus Plaza was designed by renowned architect Zaha Hadid, who was known as the “Queen of the Curve”. It is the first project among Hadid’s final architectural works to break ground.
Guangzhou Infinitus Plaza comprises several facilities, including a global R&D centre, a Chinese herbal medicine research and safety assessment centre, and a corporate exhibition centre and gallery. It will serve as the new headquarters of Infinitus China Co Ltd, a unit of LKKHPG. The plaza is expected to meet Infinitus’ projected business and office needs for the next 10 to 15 years.
Total investment in the project will reach RMB4.5 billion. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2Q2020.
