British design firm, Foster and Partners recently released renderings for Thu Thiem’s financial center and they’re well, dreamy?

There have been plans to redevelop the area, which covers more than 426 hectares, into a cultural sport and tourism center as far back as in 1992 in its current form (there were plans for a similar project in the early 1970s that fell through for obvious reasons).
