Notable Features

Atrium

The Leeza SOHO features a huge 190 metres (623 ft) tall twisting atrium at its centre, which when completed will be the tallest in the world, a title currently held by the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai. The atrium twists 45° over the length of the building to allow natural light to all floors. Structural rings at each level, four sky bridges, and a double-insulated glass facade unite the two halves of the tower together.

Subway Connection

Leeza SOHO is located at the intersection of Lines 14 and 16 currently under-construction for the Beijing Subway rail network.[4]
