I never knew that the Shanghai Tower sucks up the rain water and make it to a clean water.
I change my mind that the World Trade Center was completed at 2015. ]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521105 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521108 I noticed that the middle of the shanghai tower is all vanity  space and you can only go to the top.
I never knew that the shanghai tower has so many designs. And that the shanghai tower is going to be number 5 in the world in 2020.
I wonder are they still building the shanghai tower because it seems like you can only go to the top. 
I never knew that the first skyscraper was only 55 meters tall.

I changed my mind about the burj kalifa because I thought it was a building that have offices inside but I found out that it was a hotel    ]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521108 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521109 I noticed that there is a giant mall in the shanghai tower

I never knew that  there is a skyscraper that is 55 m tall

I changed my mind that  the shanghai tower is the second tallest building in the whole world at first i thought that it  was the third tallest building in the world 

Wonder: (1)how long is the shanghai tower the second tallest tower in the world

(2) I wonder if they add something to the shanghai tower]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521109 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521110 I never knew that...
 The 1st Skyscraper was 55m.
I change my mind...
About that all Skyscrapers needs to be 100m or more since, their is a Skyscraper that is 55m tall.
What I noticed that it made me go WOW...
That Taipei 101 has 101 stories.]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521110 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521111 I never knew that there was a tower that was only 55 meters tall and shaped like a rectangle.

I never knew that the people who designed the Shanghai tower sketched a lot of design.
I also never new that that the Burj Khalifa was a shape of an Y 
I changed my mind...
I changed my mind about, I thought the elevator was faster when going down but I changed my mind that the elevator is faster when its going up.
What I notice that made me wow...
Something that made me go WOW!!! is when I went to the observation deck I thought I could at least see a little bit of the ground but I couldn't see anything from the observation deck. Also it was plain white because of the cloud so that also made me go like "WOW!!!" one more thing that made me wow was When I saw the sketches that the designing people drew because it was drawings that I never saw.

I noticed that when we were at the observation deck , it was so high up when that we were in the clouds. I also noticed that before there was tall skyscrapers in Shanghai there were lots of small building and that each year there's always something new. I changed my mind about that you don't get motion sickness when you're very high up in the sky, because I felt sick at the observation deck. ]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521116 https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521122 I noticed from the outside that the Shanghai Tower has 2 layers with steel beams supporting the 2 layers like what the skyscraper movie said about the design. I never knew that the current design  of the Shanghai Tower was chosen because it conceals of some Chinese culture. The Shanghai Tower design was inspired by a dragon pattern. I couldn't believe that in the timeline of tallest skyscrapers in the world, the 1st one 55 m.  I changed my mind about the elevator going the same speed. ]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521122 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521123 I never knew that ICC in Hong Kong was the 7th tallest skyscraper.
 I changed my mind about the Petronas Tower, at first I thought there was nothing below the twin Towers but there was actually a small building at the bottom of the towers.
What I noticed that made me go wow, was that in the future Shanghai Tower is going to be the 5th tallest skyscraper, and how there is going to be a skyscraper that is going to be taller than Burj Khalifa!]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521123 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521132 I never knew:
That lots of skyscrapers were made by architects that were not from the place the skyscraper were built in.
I changed my mind about:
The pole or stick on the top of many skyscrapers being added to make it taller. It is actually not even counted in the height measurement.
Fast elevators being comfortable and cool, since it makes people want to vomit.
Things that made me go wow:
Engineers and Architects making so many drafts and sketches before making the final building.
The sketches and drafts looking so different from the real building.
The first of the skyscrapers were actually called skyscrapers. They were very short.]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521132 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521135 I never knew that...
most of the tall buildings were located in the Middle East.
the first skyscrapers were only 55 meters.

I changed my mind about...
the stick that is on top of some skyscrapers, I thought they were just for heights but they were something else.

Things that made me go wow was...
the Burj Khalifa was twice the size of the Empire State building.

Something that I noticed was that ....
the elevator was not the same speed for going up and for going down, the ride going down was slower than the ride up.]]> 2017-02-17 06:27:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521135 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521144 I never knew that the elevator goes slower when we go down. I also never knew that the One World Trade Center was also called the Freedom Tower.I changed my mind about the Burj Khalifa being so tall even if it was a model]]> 2017-02-17 06:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521144 alexandernaf https://padlet.com/jamie_stevens/q965uncx0mvr/wish/154521147 I never knew that the architect that designed the Burj Khalifa is from Chicago. His name is Andrian Smith.

I changed my mind about the "Y" on the bottom of the Burj Khalifa is designed like that just for fun. It is actually to represent a spider orchid.

I found it interesting that there are 144 luxurious residential apartments in the Burj Khalifa. It has really nice views of Dubai. I also found out that 2 of the 3 tallest buildings in the word are in the middle east and all 3 of the world tallest buildings are in Asia. Lastly, I found that the first few tallest buildings where under 100 meters tall.

I changed my mind about the Burj Khalifa, it looked tiny in the photo and I couldn't really compare. Until I saw the model of it, I could compare, the Burj Khalifa looked way taller than I imagined.
What I noticed that made me go WOW! Was the Shanghai Tower has broke world
records. For example:
Fastest Elevator:
Traveling 18 meters per second.
Highest Swim Pool:
( One of the world records)
One more thing that made me go WOW! Was that they installed some history about the Shanghai Tower. They had a whole floor to educate people about the Shanghai Tower and other sky scrappers around the world. 
Plus they have a whole time line of 270 years ago to 2015. And they have a whole room about the story of the Shanghai Tower. They put in the first few sketches they had. So I discovered that building a sky scrapper isn't easy like most people say.

I changed my mind about..... the Shanghai Tower, I thought it would be smaller, but it has a area that is 576,00 s.n and a luxury 5 star hotel.
      
I noticed that

I never knew that there are going to be so many skyscrapers in 2018, they will all beat the height of the Shanghai Tower in 2018.
What I noticed that made me go WOW was that Shanghai changed so much in the past 30 years, I never knew that Shanghai used to be so green and not crowded at all
