***Halawala*** · October 29th, 2006, 01:35 PM

I think its under construction besides Dafna tower, since it was mentioned in the newspaper.

***Massilia*** · October 31st, 2006, 12:16 AM

Cool addition suzan, towers always do look better on night renders

The tower looks very slender on it, i wonder if it's an optical effect or just a very artisty version of it!

***Halawala*** · December 8th, 2006, 11:47 AM

Imran, this is the thread you specified earlier. Its already under construction last time I checked. The foundation, I think, is totally complete and piling for the inner core has started.
