The Tower Dubai

The Tower at Dubai Creek Harbour is a $1-billion skyscraper that aims to be the world’s tallest when completed in 2020. Standing over 2,800-feet tall, it will emit a “beacon of light” from its peak at night, and at the very top will be an oval-shaped bud, housing ten observation decks, including The Pinnacle Room, which offers 360° views of the city. The design also includes a distinctive net of steel cable stays that attach to a central reinforced concrete column that will reach into the skies. “It is an absolute privilege to be entrusted by Santiago Calatrava and Emaar Properties to work on this project, and we have assembled a stellar team to bring this idea to life,” said Adrian Jones, Aurecon’s project director for The Tower.
