What a shame i though if they had more floors than the emirates towers they could reach the 400 meter mark but i guess we will just have to go with the 245 meter figure !

I was dissappointed at first when i learnt these towers were going to be under the 300 meter mark :\ but i guess they are tall enough !

But does this mean all the tower at JBR are going to be under 230 meters ? coz in the billboard the al fattan towers look a lot higher than any buildings going up in the JBR area

245 is not bad and as they are exactly in the center of the jumeirah beach residence development they will add some premium density. anyway, the 36 beach residence towers will make the whole marina look very dense

somehow, some people say they don't fit into this beach residence complex. i think it's a nice contrast to split the complex
