Now THAT would be fun...

Cheers mister Solt

Thanks,

This is difficult , if I get permission I will go there, which is almost impossible

I would do this , there is some places when no security but I dont want to do anything illegal...

The burj dubai still looks to me like it could go well over 818 metres, is that still possible?

Nikkodemo · October 20th, 2007, 02:18 PM

Just amazing photos!!

I wanna go to Dubai as soon as I can!!

Westyguy · October 20th, 2007, 02:24 PM

My best guess of how far to go. If BD ends up being 818m that is.

I hope this is OK with the new rules.

idkblk · October 20th, 2007, 03:23 PM

Cant imagine how thin it will be at that height.... mh dont know. Cant follow most peoples enthusiasm here.
They could stop right now and it would not be any less impressive as if they but some 200 meter spaghetti-thin spire on top.

sunshine_121 · October 20th, 2007, 03:55 PM

does anybody think they may tell us the final height a bit before it tops out?

malec · October 20th, 2007, 04:01 PM

Yes, it's already been found out.

joobn · October 20th, 2007, 04:04 PM

haha radical! i havent seen a cloud in the sky here for WEEKS! but its caught on camera! where the 818m line makes it look like the burj will be a good heihgt for its size, any more and it will look a bit dorky

He is referring to the 818m plan.

But I will still keep my finger cross, my estimate would be coming close to 900m

El Quijotillo · October 20th, 2007, 05:36 PM

Viewing the height that the Burj Dubai should reach, I can't imagine how this building will reach this height. We need to see a little more of progress.

When will start the steel section? In one month, two, three weeks?

Milllos · October 20th, 2007, 05:40 PM

next 7 floors= 45m ? From 579 to 624?, Will be there one tall mechanical floor?

7 floors = +- 20 or 25 m. I think that the final hight will be a little bit over 900 m, 810 is so notorious.

lol, anything this high is already dorky. :P But hey, the bigger the better!

RoBsoNK · October 20th, 2007, 09:15 PM

Burj Dubai will have 1011 metres high.

***AltinD*** · October 20th, 2007, 09:21 PM

CrazyAboutCities · October 20th, 2007, 09:54 PM

Yeah, and construction started on Al Burj several months ago on a plot in the Waterfront, if we are going to go with that source.

Skymaster · October 20th, 2007, 11:16 PM

If the still rise this building to 200 more meters the observation deck will only be able to hold 2 or 3 people lol. Then imagine the price.

***AltinD*** · October 20th, 2007, 11:47 PM

What? The observation deck is some 140 meters down of where we are now.

What's there to imagine? There's a ton of renders floating around that we've all seen.
