Just your thoughts and ideas I know we are all aware of whats going on Dubai as far as towers go. But just another chance to think back and reflect on it.

Just wondering, is there any particular reason for doing this aside from the "Wow" factor. I mean, is there something particular about the climate that makes it better to build skyscrapers rather than a load of houses?

Al Burj, Proposed, 205F?, 850m+ ? 2010 or 2011 maybe.
Burj Dubai, U/C, 160F (189?), 700m+ (800?) end 2008/2009 Unnamed Res Tower, Proposed/Approved?, 110F, 400m+ not before 2009 23 Marina, UC/Approved?, 90F, 380m supposed to be end 2007, rather 2008. Almas Tower, U/C, 65F, 350m 2008/2009 Torch Tower, Approved, 80F, 345m 2008 Princess Tower, U/C, 90F, 340m 2008/2009 Najd Tower, U/C, 82F, ?m not before 2008 Abbco Rotana Hotel, U/C, 72F, 333m 2007? Al Durrah 2, Approved, 78F, 330m One Central Park, Proposed/Approved?, 80F, 328m 2009 Ocean Heights, UC/Approved?, 82F, 310m end of 2008 Marina Gardens, Approved, 75F, ?m ?not before 2008? Ahmed Abdul Rahim Al Attar Tower, U/C, 70F, ?m end 2008/2009 Burj Dubai Lake Hotel, Approved, 63F, 300m 2008 that is just what came to my mind. for sure we have better dates. |

OK, added estimated completion dates. I made some changes though. Firstly, can't imagine Al Burj finished in 2010 or 2011. This tower will take at least 5 years to build by itsself.

How more at a random guess would say can be preposed, approved and construted before Burj Dubai is completed.

Guys let us now be a little bit pessimistic.
How many buildings over 300m are really under construction? We can say with 100% that Abbco Rotana and Burj Dubai are under construction. Which other over 300m towers are under constrcution? |
