The Asia-Pacific Financial Plaza is a tall skyscraper in Lingya District of Kaohsiung, Taiwan. It was completed in 1992 and was designed by Hoy Architects & Associates. It was the first building in Taiwan to reach a height of 150 m.[1]
After its completion in April 1992, the Asia-Pacific Financial Plaza became the tallest building in Taiwan surpassing the 143.4 meters high Tuntex Tower in Taipei. However, it only kept this title for 3 months when the Chang-Gu World Trade Center in Kaohsiung was completed on 9 July 1992.[2] [3]
