Abstract | Ray White is betting that architect Frank Lloyd Wright's dream of the mile-high tower will first pierce the sky in Asia. White has something of an interest in the subject. He's managing director of Otis Elevator Company in Hong Kong and local promoter-in-chief of the company's "Odyssey" system, which makes mile-high buildings viable. Push him and he is willing to put the odds on China building the first ultra-high tower. |
