Taichung City’s Seventh Redevelopment Zone has long topped the municipality’s housing markets in value, being situated near the heart of city politics, economy and finance. With the National Taichung Theater and the Cross Greenway nearby and two of the most profitable department stores in the area, Platinum Mansions offers its residents a taste of the high life.
Located on the crossing of Shihjheng North Rd and Huimin Rd., the complex is expected to have 37 floors above ground and seven basement floors. Coupled with the attractions and nearby stores, sealing a deal at the Platinum Mansions ensures that the individual is at the center of Taichung’s comfort and fashion industry.
Based on the development history of the Xinyi District in Taipei, the Seventh Redevelopment Zone in Taichung has the potential for many years of continued development.

Based on the registry index for actual housing sale prices, the final price for pre-sold apartments in the area, such as the New City Vision complex, the Above and Beyond complex, and the Belle Epoque complex, have all sold above NT$800,000 per ping and going on NT$900,000.
The new complexes all feature medium to large-sized apartments, which differs from the soon-to-be-sold Platinum Mansion complex. The complex also targets high-level managers and second-generation corporate families as ideal clients.
Residential high-rises constructed by Highwealth Construction in the redevelopment zone all have clear targets and have thus far been well-received by the market. However, with land available for construction projects on the decline, the Platinum Mansion – at the center of the redevelopment zone – is holding everyone’s attention.
With the Platinum Mansion complex, Highwealth Construction is redefining the concept of “luxury housing,” and to ensure that view is implemented, the company obtained the services of both PIA Interior Co. Ltd. – known for their continued collaboration with the Marriott hotel chain – and the G.a Design Co., who designed the W Hotel, as the complex’s principal designers.
PIA Interior Co President Rujiraporn Pia Wanglee. With more than two decades of design experience, she is an expert at melding multiple cultural elements into a cohesive whole.
Highwealth Construction’s international teams are breaking tradition. They will try to “guide” future residents on how to enjoy their life, allowing residents to choose their interior design or leave it entirely to the Highwealth and its hired designers.
The company said that we want to provide the best possible living experiences for our clients and set a new milestone on building planning and design.
We aim to make the community feel like a five-star hotel and the home of the presidential suite, Highwealth said. (Advertorial)
Leading Taiwanese bicycle brands Giant Manufacturing Co (巨大機械) and Merida Industry Co (美利達工業) on Sunday said that they have adopted measures to mitigate the impact of the tariff policies of US President Donald Trump’s administration. The US announced at the beginning of this month that it would impose a 20 percent tariff on imported goods made in Taiwan, effective on Thursday last week. The tariff would be added to other pre-existing most-favored-nation duties and industry-specific trade remedy levy, which would bring the overall tariff on Taiwan-made bicycles to between 25.5 percent and 31 percent.

TARIFF CONCERNS: Semiconductor suppliers are tempering expectations for the traditionally strong third quarter, citing US tariff uncertainty and a stronger NT dollar Several Taiwanese semiconductor suppliers are taking a cautious view of the third quarter — typically a peak season for the industry — citing uncertainty over US tariffs and the stronger New Taiwan dollar. Smartphone chip designer MediaTek Inc (聯發科技) said that customers accelerated orders in the first half of the year to avoid potential tariffs threatened by US President Donald Trump’s administration. As a result, it anticipates weaker-than-usual peak-season demand in the third quarter. The US tariff plan, announced on April 2, initially proposed a 32 percent duty on Taiwanese goods. Its implementation was postponed by 90 days to July 9, then
