Encyclopedic overview
Landmark 81 is a supertall skyscraper in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It is primarily invested in and developed by Vinhomes, the largest Vietnamese real-estate developer. Landmark 81 holds the position of the tallest building in Vietnam, the second-tallest building in Southeast Asia, as well as the seventeenth-tallest building in the world overall.
The 461.2-metre-tall (1,513 ft), 81-story building is located where the Newport logistics base was on the western banks of the Saigon River in Thạnh Mỹ Tây ward, located in the northeast side of Ho Chi Minh City's historic center and to the immediate southern side of Saigon Bridge. The tower is built at the heart of Vinhomes Central Park, a $1.5 billion high-end mixed-use urban development. The development comprises an Autograph Collection hotel (developed by Vinpearl and originally known as Vinpearl Landmark 81 Hotel) with conference facilities, luxury apartments, the Vincom Center Landmark 81 Mall (the second high-end retail spaces of Vingroup in Ho Chi Minh City after the Vincom Center Đồng Khởi), officetel, restaurants, bars, and a multi-story observation deck.
