In early July, developers signed a contract for construction of the Taipei International Financial Center. The building was originally planned to tower 508 meters high, which would make it the tallest skyscraper in the world. The builders might be forced to scale back their plans, however, as it has since been discovered that the planned structure may affect air safety.
七月初新建工程正式簽約的台北國際金融中心，原預計以五百零八公尺登上世界第一高寶座，但因為對飛航安全造成影響，可能被迫「降高」。
