International Commerce Centre
The International Commerce Centre (traditional Chinese: 環球貿易廣場) (abbr. ICC Tower) is a 108 floor, 484 m (1,588 ft) skyscraper completed in 2010 in West Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is a part of the Union Square project built on top of Kowloon Station. The development is owned and jointly developed by MTR Corporation Limited and Sun Hung Kai Properties, Hong Kong's metro operator and largest property developer respectively. It is currently the world's fourth tallest building.
Its formal development name is Union Square Phase 7 and the name International Commerce Centre was officially announced in 2005. International Commerce Centre was completed in phases from 2007 to 2010. The tower opened in 2011, with the Ritz-Carlton opening in late March and the observatory in early April.
Sun Hung Kai Properties also developed, along with another major Hong Kong developer, Henderson Land, the second-tallest skyscraper in Hong Kong, the 2 International Finance Centre, which is located directly across Victoria Harbour in Central, Hong Kong Island.
The height has been scaled back from earlier plans due to regulations that didn't allow buildings to be taller than the surrounding mountains. The original proposal for this building was called Kowloon Station Phase 7 and it was designed to be 574 m (1,883 ft) tall with 102 floors.[3][4] It would have risen 162 m (531 ft) over the then current tallest in Hong Kong, 2 International Finance Centre.
The tower was designed by the American architectural firm Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) in association with Wong & Ouyang (HK) Ltd.
A five-star hotel operated by Ritz-Carlton currently occupies levels 102 through 118. The world's highest swimming pool and bar (OZONE) within a building (relative to adjacent ground level) can be found on the top floor (118F.) The 30,000 square-foot Presidential Suite, which costs 100,000 HKD per night, is on 117F. The hotel's lobby (103F) is 425 m (1,394 ft) (fact check?) above the ground. The hotel is targeting a 60% occupancy rate.
The building also contains an observation deck on the 100th floor called Sky100 which will be open to the public in April 2011. Level 101 is leased to a number of five-star restaurants.
The rest of the building, except the lobby, contains Grade A office space. Current anchor tenants include investment banks Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, and Credit Suisse.
The Ritz's arrival lobby is on the 9th floor. Guests are led by receptionists to express elevators taking them to the 103F main lobby in 50 seconds. Guest keycards are required to use the hotel elevators to access floors 104-117. (Do you need a guest pass to go up to 103?)
At its basement is the Elements shopping mall, which was opened in October 2007. Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse moved into ICC and occupy 16 and 12 floors respectively,[5] Deutsche Bank also moved in and occupies 12 floors with the option to expand to 18 floors.[6]
Construction work was halted[7] on 13 September 2009 due to an elevator shaft accident which killed six workers.[8]

more info:: Sky100 is a 360-degree indoor observation deck on the 100th floor of the International Commerce Centre, in West Kowloon, Hong Kong.

When we were there (as you will note in the video) this *was* the 10th highest building in the world. Fast-forward just a few months and by the end of 2018, China had two more building within the top 10:
(as of 2019) #9 = Tianjin CTF Finance Centre in Tianjin, China and
(as of 2019) #10 = China Zun in Beijing, China - and this then became Beijing's tallest building upon completion.
Finally, in the second half of 2019 another mega-structure from China comes in at #5, further pushing the ICC out to #13
#5 (as of 2019) = Goldin Finance 117, Tianjin, China
for the most updated list heck out this Wikipedia Entry:
With all that data out of the way, I can tell you that only as I was producing this video and updating this blog/VLOG post did I investigate this. While there, it was very easy to ignore all of this. We walked around amidst very limited crowds and enjoyed ourselves. A perfect tourist experience by some people's definition :-)
Hope you enjoyed it.
Thanks for watching.
Live the Dream!
