The unique circular shape of the building has presented a number of challenges. The building, being constructed at a cost of QR82 million, has required deep excavation in hard rock and dewatering and because of the congested nature of the 4,900 sq m site – with towers on both sides – a secant wall has required. The main contractor on the project is Gulf Housing and Construction, which is expected to complete it by July 2006.

The first couple of floors for this building are already up. This building and about a dozen other ones with similiar hights are coming up directly facing the city center.

You can contact the Qatar Financial Centre since this is QFC Tower now...

QFC doesn't lease space unless they are related to finanance in some way and adhere to QFC laws.
I've been told its full though and has been for quite a while.
@Dopey, you could consider either the Palm Tower or Tornado Tower.
