Located to the west of Jinji Lake, the Suzhou Zhongnan Center is a 729-meter, 137-story mixed-use tower with office, residential and hotel space. The tower has five stories below grade and an eight-story, long-span podium that provides ballroom and conference facilities.
The Suzhou Zhongnan Center in Suzhou Industrial Park, Jiangsu, was originally designed as a 729 m, 137-floor mixed-use tower (proposed 2011, construction began 2014, halted 2015 and abandoned)[3]
Plans were scrapped in 2019 in compliance with China's ban on buildings over 500 m; the redesign is 499.2 m and 103 floors with hotel, office and residential use, developed by Zhongnan Group[2][3]
Construction on the new design started in 2020 with estimated completion of 2028, but work halted in mid-2022 over Zhongnan's financial difficulties and, per Wikipedia, had not resumed as of 2026[3]

The CTBUH's official Skyscraper Center database independently lists the building's on-hold/stalled status, corroborating that construction has not progressed toward the pin's stored completion date.

Wikipedia documents that the tower's planned height was already cut from 729m to 499.2m in 2019 under China's building-height cap, and construction was halted in mid-2022; as of late 2025 the stalled project was listed for sale by its lender, so it did not complete by the pin's stored end of 2020 and has no confirmed new completion date.

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.

Helen Toland Street, UnCommons, Southern Hills, Clark County, Nevada, 89113, United StatesStix Asia
DELAYED3 months late79% CONFIDENCEin 158 daysNo source names a day. The newest and most specific statement of timing is the station's report of 16 September 2026: "Opening is planned for this winter", so the pin takes the last day of meteorological winter 2026-27, 28 February 2027. Stix Asia's[2] own page says "Opening 2026" and UnCommons[3]' says "STIX ASIA COMING 2026", but neither narrows the season and both are stale - the UnCommons page was last modified on 4 April 2025 - so the year on them is not allowed to pull the date back into December. It is marked delayed rather than estimated because the target has already moved: the Review-Journal[5] reported on 28 April 2026 that "a fall 2026 opening is planned" and the Las Vegas Weekly[4] still had it "set for a fall opening" on 9 July.
An 18,000-square-foot Asian food hall with 12 stalls and roughly 400 seats opens in the former Sundry space at UnCommons in southwest Las Vegas, the second Stix Asia after the 2023 Honolulu original.
