Before the news that the 'Shark Jaws' building would be demolished before April 30, 2025, on weekends, many people and tourists visited and took souvenir photos to preserve the image of this familiar building.

Doan Trang (middle, from Hanoi) shared that although she had sat in a coffee shop in the building many times, she had never taken a photo here. "Today, taking advantage of the weekend, I invited my friends to come take photos to preserve memories before the building is demolished."

“I am quite sorry that this building was demolished, but if this helps to expand the space around Hoan Kiem Lake and create a more beautiful landscape, I fully support it,” said Thuy Linh.

The "Shark Jaw" building is a commercial center at 7 Dinh Tien Hoang (Hanoi). The project was built on the old tram station with a view of Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square and a full view of Hoan Kiem Lake. The project started in 1990 and was completed in 1993.

The balcony area of the restaurants in the 'Shark Jaws' building is always full thanks to its beautiful view.

For a long time, 'Shark Jaws' has been a familiar place for international tourists whenever they visit Hanoi.

Standing opposite the 'Shark Jaws' building, Ms. Thu Ha (Hoan Kiem district) and her Australian husband took the opportunity to take a souvenir photo. "Since I was little, I have been familiar with the image of this building, it is associated with my childhood memories. Today, I had the opportunity to pass by, my husband and I stopped by a coffee shop to take a look again before the building is demolished."

"I came here today to take some pictures, as a part of my memories before this project is dismantled," said Hai Anh (Cau Giay, Hanoi).

As the afternoon progresses, the area of the 'Shark Jaws' building near Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square attracts more and more people.

After demolition, the city plans to study the construction of 3 basements in the "Shark Jaw" area, with the function of a cultural and commercial space on basement 1; parking area on basements 2 and 3.
