It actually is, which means the graphic designers (3D artists) did a very poor job.

I tried to correct the originaly wrong perspective:




However in this render the base/podium of the building is missing.

Personally too much happening at the top of this tower. Should be a little less cluttered at the top.

The reason for that is becouse this tower will be tightly fit in between 2 other towers (as in 15 meters distance) of 260 and 285 meters tall, so the top will rise above their roofs. Right in front of it, some 20 - 30 meters distant, will be a 380 meters tall tower.

Can you imagine, a 412 meters tall tower, just 150 meters from the sea and having no clear sea view.

Indeed, that's astounding... Marina 101 will tower right in the center of the cluster with such neighbours as Mag 218 to the S, the Torch and Marina Pinnacle to the SW, Princess Tower to the W, Elite Residences to the NW, Ocean Heights to the N, Sulafa Tower to the NE and 23 Marina to the E.

Tower 101 should have a large impact to the Marina skyline in 2009/10... until the mighty Pentominium Tower, that soon might rise straight to the East, can even dwarf this 101-story-tower!

It's a bit sad that only the mountain-like roof will be seen midst the other buildings, but not the whole elegant tower...

You did what? I don't see the difference...

I put the first image together from the FLASH-IMAGE on the site and made it smaller because it was way too long...

BTW: the building at the top WILL be "little" wider then below... that's not a mistake.

dont it just look stupid because the top of the tower is new in the pic and the middle and lower part are cut out of the daytime render?

Alternatively, you could thank Altin for going to the trouble of creating an image to show how the tower may look.

I didn't created anything; I just corrected slightly the perspective. The original image is from the tower's website.
