I am not sure! But, its one hell of a tower! It would require years to complete and a pretty damn good engineer to safely design it!

^^ Everyone...

I PM'ed the person who posted this tower's pics.. He replied and told me that he works in Miami and that they received this proposal from a company in Qatar. He said that this company asked them about how much would be the cost to outsource curtainwall or something like that!!

He told me that he will ask his boss as soon as possible and send me the name of the tower plus other info!!

Can't wait@

Ok guys, this is what I got:

The person who posted it said the following:

"My boss still did not arrive from his leave. As soon as he gets back I will send you what we got. But just know for the meantime that this render was sent to us by the same company who will build The World Trade Center in Qatar"

Can someone help figure out who is that company?

Bad news guys... I couldnt get any information from the guy that posted those pics... He sent me a msg and told me that his boss got furious because he posted the pics and then removed them and apologized as he cannot give me any information as it is still confidential..

He didnt even give me the name of the tower, at least :cry:

Sorry guys

i dont think its likely to get built we are not even shure if its approved or even porposed i think its still a vision but still i dont think it will make it although there is a project in kuwait city of a 1001m tower it used to be a vision but now its approved construction is coming soon and there are some roumers in manama (bahrain) of a 1012m tower
