Excellent! From this location it looks like you were very close to the lighthouse tower plot. Did you get to take a picture of what's going on there?

Lighthouse Tower will obscure both towers from the angle ^^. Should look good from here though.

if anything was called ugly, thats what that would be.

if anything was called ugly, thats what that would be. Agree... It's too faat :bash:!

What are you two talking about? This tower is super thin.

Yeah its thin, but the cladding is... "oh my god im gonna be sick ugly!" It looks like 1980's cladding. Why o why o why? :puke:

Maybe, or maybe not. I'll wait till it's completed, the cladding looks always pretty shitty if it's barely covering anything. The roof feature may do it pretty good, too. Overall I think it may turn out OK. Plus, it's one of a kind on the white-and-blue-SZR.

Yeah I know - painful to watch. Just compare it to the Rolex Tower a couple of blocks away. What a contrast.

This one is going to be SO ugly in the end, covered in all-gold cladding

Quite horrible actually. Bad shape, poor proportions and poor cladding.

I guess we have to live with it now. the cladding is on and nothing we can do about the horrifying color!!

Does anyone have a floor plan of the upper levels? I don't know how they can be profitable with those large cutouts in the already small floor plates.

I dont think its much different in size than many other skyscrapers in Dubai!

What a horrible building. Everything is wrong: the proportions, colours, cladding....


Thanks for the update Imre, though.

Proportions???

Yes, that too. Sadly. The whole package is bad.
But no issue - there are many nice buidings all around.

Once again: Proportions?

Yes, that too. Sadly.

And how are the proportions bad when they are the same as the other towers in the same area?

The tower is WAY too thin for its height, I think its what he means

anyone can show me the final render?? because the renders I see, are very different of this building..

The tower is WAY too thin for its height, I think its what he means

And how is that different from many towers around in SZR or from those in Marina's tallest block?

somehow I got a feeling that they cancelled the top feature of this tower!

God, this is taking forever. They managed to clad around 30% of the tower in one year. What a shame.

^^ so we have to wait for another ~ 2,5 years for the rest of the cladding. HAHA, yes, this one is a total disaster, wish it would be shorter so it wouldn't be a such "big" disaster. haha

So cladding on the SZR and ET sides is largely completed, while DIFC side hasn't even started yet. How about Rose Rotana's side? Anyone?

^^ Yes, it has.

from today:

Too thin. Really taking forever. Any hope it might be demolished?

^^ Why would anyone demolish the building? This would be an incredibly stupid thing to do. Anyway - it's not "too thin". It is exactly the same as Rose Rotana, a tower about which nobody made such statements.

Too thin. Really taking forever. Any hope it might be demolished?

erm I dont think so....

Is there any visible progress on this one since the last update?

No

they should leave it unfinished and turn it into labour accommodation ;)

I love this tower, but it's taking forever to finish :ohno:

^^ Looks like the roof feature is now u/c! :D

^^ Nope, it has been like that for years.

How come you never posted pictures of it.... Here I was getting excited that it's finally moving ahead at a quicker pace :(
