Clarification: The information that the contractor was bankrupted by the Taipei Performing Arts Centre (TPAC) was sourced from the South China Morning Post. According to other sources, the contractor was bankrupted for multiple reasons. The project was originally scheduled to finish in 2013 but the timeline was pushed back due to site conditions discovered after the competition phase, according to OMA.

Correction: In Taiwanese currency, the budget of the TPAC went from 4.8 billion TWD to 6 billion TWD, according to OMA.
