Daniel Libeskind completed the Haeundae Udong Hyundai I’Park in Busan, South Korea in 2011. Libeskind was tasked with creating a monumental area  for the second largest  city in South Korea behind Seoul. Libeskind achieved this by creating the largest ever residential tower at its time, rising up almost to 1000 feet. The project also included several other towers, which Libeskind varied the heights and directional faces of to create a more vivid skyline.

The total building size is over 4.5 million square foot and consists of several outdoor pavilions and sidewalks that connect the multiple towers.
