am I the only one who thinks that a moderator would eventually come and lock all those threads?

meadows will do it. there is no reason but he will do it. :D

i think every 300m + UC deserves its own thread.

even if there are 10 or more like in Dubai.

am I the only one who thinks that a moderator would eventually come and lock all those threads?

Don`t be so pessimistic.
Now Dubai has as many threads as Moscow, New York or Chicago.

am I the only one who thinks that a moderator would eventually come and lock all those threads?

Why should a moderator do this? We are talking about a 328m supertall here! If this doesn't qualify as something being posted in the world forums...what does???

^^ they have done this with 40 Tower project JBR.

He couldve put them into one thread which would be easier to find.

He couldve put them into one thread which would be easier to find.

It would be disorganized as the thread gets bigger

There should be one thread for each unique supertall

I've suggested a dubai construction thread a couple of times already, maybe you guys should do two construction threads,where one could be everything under 250m and the other everything over.

one thread for each supertall, regardless of where it is (new york, kuala lumpur, singapore, dubai, etc.)

well then people shouldn't start asking why are they're some many dubai threads when all threads on the world forums are from dubai.

dubai should have its own league in the world forums :rofl:

^^ Good idea, let's get started on that... :)

It's unfair how Dubai threads are locked. These are monumental buildings here; a city should not be discriminated against just because it has a lot of construction. If these buildings were in American or European cities, people would cry foul. What if all of London must be confined to a "London Construction Thread", for example, and even 300m+ towers cannot get their own threads?

^^ :hahaha: good one.

well we limited ourselves to the supertalls UC and the real good designs like park place.

Nevertheless there are a lot more supertalls which should start construction really soon...

Very dynamic and strong looking, quite unique design indeed.

^^ :hahaha: good one.

What a great design. Probably the best I have seen proposed in Dubai.

^^ it is UC!

and it is not that great.. :weird:

it is cool but.. i mean.. it is boxy ;)

Its design is quite unique and powerful. I like it.

Great design, very industrial look to it but not too fussy. Reminds me of the John Hancock Centre how it tapers as it rises and the residential/office mix.

If this tower was going up in London or Chicago it would be hailed as a ground breaking design and this thread would be up to part 5, but since it in Dubai it is treated like just another tall in Dubai :)

i would have 2 agree, very unique, but i think it is to much of a rectangle ^^ :poke: very nice tower anyway :) :)

Your american were supposed and usally like rectangular skyscrapers better.
The sears being the best in the world.

Your american were supposed and usally like rectangular skyscrapers better.

haha.....I'm not sure if its' because I'm American but I do like tall rectangular buildings with a flat top the best like the Sears Tower or World Trade Center.

^^ i find flat tops boring...the architects jus being plain lazy

Flat top rectangular buildings evoke a big business style of architecture. No flashy kitsch to deal with meaning business.

i too think its ok to have all these threads. Any project over 300m deserves its own thread, especially in world construction forums.
i love this bldg. Foster is a genious.

nice update once again... thanks

this one looks very cool

Dubai is truly insane.

Nice tower though.

I can't wait to see this tower rising. Thanks, AltinD for an updates.

6 Weeks gone. We need pictures! :bash: :bash:

^^ i find flat tops boring...the architects jus being plain lazy


You would hate downtown Los Angeles then.. all of the towers there are flat tops as well, but that is because of a city ordinance which requires all high rises to be flat at the top so helicopters can land on them.. Hence the
Library Tower, which was the tallest building in the world with a helipad on it 310+ meters up... I think it still is, but Im not sure...

The Index looks a little bit like One Chase Manhattan Bank in New York City.On the one hand its a boring box skyscraper design, but on the other hand its very interesting because it is so thin.It would look really cool if the tower is curved designed!

^^ it's about 80m taller than One Chase and has a much better design

^^ it's about 80m taller than One Chase and has a much better design

I wrote it looks "a little bit" like One Chase Manhattan Bank and not same!!!!!!!!!Thats a difference....
:cheers:

Depends on the approach and philosophies behind the business. Square monuments to commerce do little to tickle the architectural community but they are often damn impressive.

Good to see new thinking, new business moving to clever and interesting designs, that support there clever business thinking.

Thats why he says america big american business, instead of eastern horizons. But it's just a sterotype and changing fads.

Crazycanuck is right, boxy buildings do seem to evoke a big business feeling better than others. Dubai's skyscrapers are mostly of the flashy type so it's good to have some variety. I'd love to see some more of these types of towers in future.

I like the design. Bold but not boring. Also it looks a bit like a computerchip. :lol:

Yes the Design is good, on the renders it looks so big and gigantic.

I can't wait for the tower to rise.

I think the only interesting thing is the name.

Index will be a bit more then a box. being a Foster bldg its interiors will have voids or atriums etc.this size "box" will be a much needed bldg for Dubai.It will be massive, approx 90m/300ft in width!!

http://i2.tinypic.com/vhucrt.jpg

Today by Imre.. in the background.. it's rising!! :drunk:

http://i7.tinypic.com/219z9kk.jpg

Nice updates, Thanks

Thank you for the Update

this tower is cool. i wish they built this tower with in the burj dubai complex,it would be a very nice view of the hole complex from one of the top floors

its literally across the street from the Burj downtown and once all is complete will be a seamless city extention

Cool, great that it's starting to come up now

Looks okay, but not one of Dubai's best planned building (My Opinion).

It's quite ugly.

one of the best towers in Dubai

Really like this design. Very different from all the other dubai towers.

its a norman Foster design? it will be brilliant. every great city needs a foster building!
thats one big corebox.

Nice model, thanks, The Index looks so grand and powerful.

I really like this building for Dubai. For some city's the buildings width and height together would be to overpowering. But with some of the Towers and Projects that I being built in Dubai; this one will fit in just fine. :runaway:

I like this tower, its simple but very cool looking.

:cheers:

that is the most massive core I have ever seen

Will be really interesting to see this rise because it is a completly different shape to most other talls currently being built in Dubai.

Fantastic design.

Some people :lol: :bash: :nuts:

http://i13.tinypic.com/2lj3ic6.jpg

^^ Dubai International Financial Centre will have underground traffic, parking and pedestrian zones, so it must be part of that.

i think this will be either the pedestrian zone with mall to left and right or the underground car park access ramp.

however it is more likely this will be the access ramp probably, since it leads to Doha street, resp to the current road behind SZR skyscrapers.

this building will be huge is so manu ways...one (eh more then one :D ) big core(s)....thanks guys for the updates! :okay:

Holly crap, this tower is soo HUGE

wow .. HUGE !!!
thnx AltinD

Cheers Altin. Amazing!!!

This is one of the widest buildings i've seen, Just look at those multiple cores!

Why is there an absence of floor plates in the middle section? Is that some sort of elevated area or atrium?

so cool shots, amazing progress!!!

Do we see underground levels at the bottom or lower floors?

i think the floorplates visible are actually underground, u can clearly see what will be the lobby above it, before the regular floors start.

this will be one massive skyscraper, going on the current core/structure in compariosn to render>

Might have to do with that there will be a lot of parkingfloors, or so ive read.

And that is an entire floor, it's to big or they're going to build floors in there?

GREAT!

Massive structure.
Does anyone has some floor plans.
As far as I can conclude are all the lifts and staircases in the left and right part of the building.
Those two parts does have a kind of core function.
Will there be any cladding on the massive concrete stucture of those "cores". If yes, what kind of material will be used.

This structure is so massive that it seems to too have several independent cores and three floor plates per floor!

This is the kind of skyscraper that grows on you... its not really a beauty, but by its sheer proportions you wonder at its future greatness and impact on the dubai skyline...

Drove past it yesterday, this thing is absolutely huge already!

great update

very huge

it's so Fucking Huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't cursing banned on SSC? We should at least be a little dignified here you could have at least made it FU%^%% Huge!!!!!

Index is so massive.. incredible

in that pic you really can see how big it'll be

Damn....so many buildings hitting 1000ft and over in such a small area. Amazing!!!

it is so huge!!, looks 3 towers in 1!!

very massive base and so wide.

can't wait to see the first glass

im pretty sure i worked out its about 90m/300ft wide
gonna be awesome.
http://i2.tinypic.com/vhucrt.jpg

can't wait to see the first glass
you most likely will see glass on the index then on the burj dubai 1st

I'd personally like to see the top glass section redesigned... it looks really odd sticking up there. I'm also not sure what the point of the big concrete wings at the side are? There's no floor area on either side of them. It seems far more "over-braced" than it needs to be.
From what this architect has done before - i would have expected a bit more... we'll see how it looks, i don't think it's the best render... don't think it's on a par with SOM unfortunately, and i'm British!
Still I think those shades over the windows are a good idea from an environmental point of view.

I really like this building, although i'm not sure about those huge concrete wings... But it's a nice proyect! :okay:

you most likely will see glass on the index then on the burj dubai 1st

i always will see glass on a building as soon as possible :)

i always will see glass on a building as soon as possible :)

No no we can no longer count floors when they start installing the cladding.

I also think the two concrete ends of the building are a bit too big.

Amazing tower :cheers:

Yes, The Index is an amazing tower that is growing on the wonderful Dubai's skyline.

i think it must be taller owing to his big area 2 be not strange with other SZR buildings

They have finally started tagging the floor numbers, HUGE number tags I may add, so now it can be said for sure that it has reached the 20th floor. :cheers:

^^ Your such a tease AltinD!! :)

This is a great development. Very impressive tower indeed and great progress also.
The location is very good for the skyline. Because it is nog on the SZR it wille bring more depth to the skyline.
Any new pictures on progress btw ??

Defineitly to die for building...:)

OMG!! The best building U/C Anywhere!
And being behind SZR it will really make a difference to the skyline. :)

there you can really see how big it is

it is turning out very nice. What i like the most are that massive concrete walls at the corners and in the middle. And is also so so fu**** massive:)

I love Dubaiiiiiiiiii!!! I hope I can go this year :lol:

Also what are the piles all along the bottom of the last picture?
And is that the underground levels at the foot of Index?

Massive! Seems much bigger than in the last update

Wonderful pictures, I'm agree with you malec it seems much bigger.

they finally painted the number's of floor's, that help's us alot ;)

looks like 25 floors :)

^^ Yup, It jumped yesterday (on the 25th)

Wow cool design will it be the second tallest building in Duabi?

this things going to dramatically alter the skyline of Dubai - it's gonna look like some colossus.

Completed or topped up:

Burj Dubai 415m (and growing)
Emirates Office Tower 355m
Rose Rotana Hotel 333 m

The Index it will be just 328m so even if it was completed today it will not be more then the 3rd tallest tower. There are at least 8 other towers under construction (one will even be completed before Index) that will be taller and more are approved and should start soon.

^^Yeah Baby! :okay: :D:D:D Yeahhhh!!!

Yes, it is true that there will be taller buildings than The Index, but still the tower has a great design.

one of dubai's best

i think Index will be the widest skyscraper in dubai? over 90m wide whole way up over 300m!

Wow that is wide

one of dubai's best


And fastest!! :banana:

... over 90m wide whole way up over 300m!

The building gets narrow as it goes higher, and that is not just an optical illusion. ;)

It doesn't look like it gets much narrow in the Rendering. Do we know how wide it'll be at the roof? I'm sure it's going to have one of the largest roofs in the world.

^^ Sure it doesn't get much narow, but still the top IS narrower then the base.
