The 40th floor terrace (3.1m in size) will be created at both ends of the building, adding visual interest to the top of the tower. These terraces will be surrounded by a 3.5m high balustrade to provide a safe environment for residents.

Eventually, the facade will wrap around it to continue its relationship with the rest of the building, with the top finished in a slightly lighter coloured bronze fin panel, providing an elegant crown element to the landmark building.
