most likely he will

Dubai-Lover · May 9th, 2006, 07:24 PM

great news malec

the render looks a zillion times better than the one before and the height is pretty much acceptable

ardi · May 19th, 2006, 04:09 PM

Its 340m with antenna, and it is going to be launch soon. The prelaunch ads are so cool they made the environment like a futuristic city

To build towers in BB there is a limitation for number of floors and height. But still their location is very unique and the design is not bad so far.

I heard www.the-skyscraper.com will be up soon so we can get more information

THE DUBAI GUYS · May 19th, 2006, 04:37 PM

well thanx ardi...this tower is really good and suits dubai so well....i love it...and its 340m???? are u sure?

R

ardi · May 19th, 2006, 04:41 PM

Yes 100%

zee · May 19th, 2006, 05:49 PM

340m?? woohoo i love the design

BinDubai · May 20th, 2006, 11:33 AM

just what Dubai needs

mashala its nice and has a geart water front view

ardi · May 21st, 2006, 06:29 PM

Till now it is the tallest commercial tower in BusinessBay

malec · May 21st, 2006, 06:34 PM

Huh? Isn't the burj al alam the tallest at 484m?

I suppose "the skyscraper" is completely commercial while burj al alam has a decent-sized hotel portion

DUBAI · May 22nd, 2006, 02:29 AM

Another boring, boring tower. 300 metres... pshhh.

i could build a bigger tower with one hand behind my back, and damac as my backers

... on the otherhand... more glass!!!

dubai is becoming 'the glass city'.

its nice, tall and understated. id prefer the curvey sticky outy bit to be angular. but it will do.

great work on naming it

ardi · May 22nd, 2006, 09:20 PM

This Tower is fully commercial

***AltinD*** · May 22nd, 2006, 11:29 PM

Maybe they should have called it "The Commercial Skyscraper" then.

LemonyBeaver · May 23rd, 2006, 05:19 PM

or 'the llama skyscraper'

malec · May 30th, 2006, 04:59 PM

Actually this tower might be a bit bland and soulless but it does soar well, at least in the 3D model it gives this impression

ardi · May 30th, 2006, 05:31 PM

It is more like a german architecture, plain, simple and professional, specially when its for commercial purpose.

malec · May 30th, 2006, 05:52 PM

View from where XL Tower is:

Near the base:

ardi · May 30th, 2006, 06:18 PM

Cool, u did it in 3d?

city of the future · May 30th, 2006, 06:25 PM

@ ardi: This is a German architect? so u have inside info on this tower? it is 340m and it is a steel or concrete structure?

ardi · May 30th, 2006, 06:31 PM

I ment its german style, I know its 340 cuz they have a realy nice scaled model in Al Attar Business Tower and its mentioned there. I dont know whether is steel or concrete.

any question?

***soup or man*** · July 23rd, 2006, 10:16 PM

Nice tower..horrible name.

First Dubai builds 'The Tower.' Then 'The Skyscraper.' Only think left is 'The Building.'
