^ The completion for this project will be somewhere in June 2010. It is going as per schedule. Although slow by other international standards, it is still movign at a decent pace. Work on finishings is underway.

46 Floors

I counted 46 floors too!
Seems like an odd number though..

Its a tall tower that can be seen from a very far away distance , but its construction is very slow. Their are lots of new towers being built near this project witch are changing the skyline of Khober dramatically , inshallah i will try to take pics of this tower and other skylines in al Khober very soon.

Officially "Dhahran Tower" "برج الظهران"

Thanks DAMAC for the update..
Just to update everyone.. This tower is now officially named "Dhahran Tower" "برج الظهران"..

I passed by Dhahran Tower during the past weekend, and noticed the sign (shown below the tower) for office leasing and apartment letting posted there showing the new official name.

Seems like an odd choice though, considering that the tower is actually located in Khobar and not Dhahran!
