That actually is an idea than I only have to travel to Dubai to see 10 tallest buildings in the world

hah, those roads on the foreground looks awfully like a race track.

Which would probably happen in Dubai in the future anyway, Grand Prix of Dubai. Doesn't sound too bad.

mikering · March 31st, 2007, 11:16 PM

so many supertalls close to each others

...and as people already said... that is a BAD thing... nobody will get much of a view, even if their apartments are pretty high up.

Most of them are temporary road diversions due to the construction of a huge intersection nearby, connecting the aerea with the main highway. You can even see an access ramp being build.

Adrian Smith fan · April 3rd, 2007, 01:44 AM

xAKxRUSx · April 3rd, 2007, 02:26 AM

Not by much at all...

Dr Drums · April 3rd, 2007, 03:08 AM

I don´t think "catching up" is the appropiate word to use...maybe just "starting to do something about it", but again, there´s no comparison.

SAKBAZ · April 3rd, 2007, 03:23 AM

Rizzato · April 3rd, 2007, 06:55 AM

I think this one would be better without the serrated edge.

I would say that Dubai is catching up to New York, Chicago, etc.

It still has a ways to go in my opinion...
