LAHORE - In line with the vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan for encouraging construction of high-rise buildings to save precious land, the Lahore Development Authority on Monday gave a go ahead for construction of city's tallest building at Finance and Trade Centre, Johar Town.
The 500 feet high-rise would be constructed on a 44-kanal piece of land besides a hotel of international chain.
