Taikoo Li Xi’an 2022 saw the announcement of Taikoo Li Xi’an in partnership with Xi’an Cheng Huan Cultural Investment and Development Co. Located within the Small Wild Goose Pagoda Historical and Cultural Zone, a scenic area with profound historical and cultural significance, Taikoo Li Xi’an will be situated adjacent to Small Wild Goose Pagoda, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Jianfu Temple, a royal temple built in 684 A.D. during the Tang Dynasty. The project will pay tribute to local history, culture and heritage whilst immersing visitors in unique retail, cultural and lifestyle experiences. Swire Properties and Xi’an Cheng Huan Cultural Investment and Development Co. Ltd. will develop an urban regeneration plan for the area that blends old and new and takes full advantage of its location at the intersection of two metro lines. Taikoo Li Xi’an will be a retail-led project featuring a low-rise, open-plan architectural design that exemplifies the Taikoo Li brand. It will comprise retail and cultural facilities, a luxury hotel, serviced residences and business apartments. With an estimated above- and below-ground GFA of almost 2.9 million sq ft, this will be Swire Properties’ fourth Taikoo Li in the Chinese Mainland, following the successful development of Taikoo Li Sanlitun in Beijing, Sino-Ocean Taikoo Li Chengdu and Taikoo Li Qiantan in Shanghai. The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2025. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2022 70
