I hate to burst your bubble, but that sign has appeared long ago. Take a look at most of the Arabian capitals. They all have giant skyscrapers. And they were all built before this project. Abraj Albait didn't start anything >.> Plus tall buildings already existed in Mecca before Abraj Albait. The only difference is this time they made it taller.I don't understand why you people don't come to your senses and acknowledge that if Mecca doesn't expand vertically, it'll be a total mess. The streets, pilgrim housing, shops, everything. The Saudi government aren't building glass facade buildings with twists and turns (e.g infinite tower - Dubai). They're building tall, square, decent-looking buildings trying to keep all the attention on the haram, but still provide housing, hospitals and stores for the pilgrims. |

for the second time in the same year,a fire happened yesterday 30 April at aser prayer time,in sara tower started at floor 15 then to floors 14 and 13.
![]() النيران مشتعلة في الطابق الـ 13 بأحد الأبراج الشرقية بوقف الملك عبدالعزيز بمكة أمس مكة المكرمة: خالد الرحيلي تعرض برج سارة الجديد ضمن مشروع وقف الملك عبدالعزيز بمكة المكرمة أمس أثناء أداء صلاة العصر بالمسجد الحرام إلى حريق بعد أن نشبت النيران في أخشاب ودعامات وسقالات في الطابق الـ15 قبل أن تمتد إلى الطابقين " 13، 14 " للبرج "قيد الإنشاء". وفيما تعد هذه هي المرة الثانية التي يشب فيها حريق في أحد أبراج وقف الملك عبدالعزيز خلال عام واحد، بعد حريق أحد الأبراج الجنوبية "تحت التشييد" بالوقف نفسه في شوال الماضي، أوضح مدير عام الدفاع المدني بمنطقة مكة المكرمة اللواء عادل زمزمي لـ"الوطن" أنه تم التحفظ على العمالة الموجودة بالموقع لحظة نشوب الحريق الذي سيطرت الفرق، حتى ساعة كتابة الخبر، على 90% منه، وجار تبريد المنطقة منعا لانتشار الحريق إلى الفنادق المجاورة. وفي حين أشار زمزمي إلى أنه لم يردهم أي بلاغ عن إصابات، أكد مدير هيئة الهلال الأحمر بمكة المكرمة بندر بارحيم أنه تم إرسال 6 فرق طوارئ تضم أطباء وفنيين، تحسباً لوجود حالات مصابة. واضطرت شرطة العاصمة المقدسة لفرض طوق أمني لفض تجمهر المارة والمصلين حول موقع الحريق حفاظا على سلامتهم..

Bridge is under construction as shown in render, By following colour arrows I marked, you can see construction from different angles. Also this is a very spot where old green coloured bridge use to be.
