Shun Hing Square is a 384-meter, 69-story skyscraper at 5002 Shennan East Road in the Luohu District of Shenzhen, Guangdong, China, designed by K.Y. Cheung Design Associates and opened on June 27, 1996. On completion it became the tallest building in China, a title it held for about a year until CITIC Plaza in Guangzhou surpassed it, and it remains recognized as the tallest all-steel building in China, using roughly 24,500 tonnes of structural steel. Construction advanced at a pace of about four floors every nine days. The tower's top floor houses an observation deck known as the Meridian View Center.
