Development History
Inspired by Japan's JP Tower development in central Tokyo, Chunghwa Post designated the building as its new headquarters, which will emerge from within Taipei's historic Beimen Post Office.[4][5] The tower has officially passed environmental impact assessment, although the final external design is not completely decided.[6] If all goes to plan, the new tower will house the Financial Supervisory Commission (which is currently located in Banqiao station), Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation (which is currently located in Taipei 101), Taipei Exchange and Taiwan Futures Exchange. It is part of the Taipei West District Gateway Project, which is an urban renewal project of the previously declining area around Taipei Main Station.[7] The original number of floors of the building was designated as 50 floors, but was later changed to the current number.[8]
