Question: 250 to the roof or the top of the spire?

***AltinD*** · June 3rd, 2005, 12:59 PM

^ Top of the spire.

Urban Dave · June 3rd, 2005, 01:07 PM

Thanks AltinD.

TallBox · June 3rd, 2005, 02:56 PM

great design but cheap looking cladding 7/10

dubaiflo · June 3rd, 2005, 05:46 PM

this tower looks very exclusive from the outside (and even from the inside) , what do you think altind?

Epicurion · June 3rd, 2005, 06:01 PM

stunning. superb design. but can't give it a 10 with that name...
and besides, it should read Chelski Tower now!!!

***AltinD*** · June 3rd, 2005, 11:00 PM

LOL

The name is Chelsea, becouse the company who won the contract for tower managment (the tower is Furnished Hotel Apartments), was called Chelsea.

The original name of this tower was Al Salam which means PEACE.

Yes it is exclusive and the facade finish is fantastic, not at all cheap as someone said. I love the small row of lights thay have placed between the sections of the tower. They look amaizing in the night.

The Bridge conecting the tower with the Health Club & swiming pool on top of the car park. The conection is on the 6th floor:

jpq21 · June 5th, 2005, 09:16 PM

looks very unnatural in the environment
i think this whole skyline looks awkward, and since there is nothing else around it, it makes all the buildings look huge, when this is only 250 m and is the highest in the row of buildings.

7/10

Dubai_Boy · June 5th, 2005, 09:28 PM

only 250 meters tall !!! haha , where the hell do u come from ?

skiesthelimit · June 6th, 2005, 04:30 AM

Maybe he comes from dubai also where proposed buildings less than 300m are considered 'short' hehehe

Seriously, I rate this tower an 8. I like the shape and form, but it seems a tad 'tacky' from some angles IMHO, I can't really describe it but something just doesn't seem right in the facade. Perhaps there is just a bit too much white.

wecky · June 6th, 2005, 04:45 PM

9.5 ... lovely building

***SoboleuS*** · June 7th, 2005, 05:58 PM

A little bit awkward IMO, and too much blue glass

7,5/10

STR · June 7th, 2005, 06:08 PM

It's okay. I like the top, it's rather unique.

But WTF is with that hideous red/blue/brown building next door? That thing is UGLY.
