I got it from www.evermotion.org
It's just a forum for CGI artists. There was no mention of developer, location, or anything. Was just basically a guy saying "here's my work" and then this render. He also posted some other renders, all looking like projects which could be real (just based on the style of renders) but none actually released with names of a developer.

how will the roads cope with ppl in that 100f office and 100F and 90F residential towers with those small roads in that area?? this is just silly...height limits HAVE to be put in place not for flight paths...but for the infrastucture!

The render could be different, hope so. But 2x 100 + 90 floors is awesome!!

Quite agree with you, the infrastructure can not cope with this. It has been designed for pure greed with total disregard for the area.

Shame they will be so tall. I almost purchased in The Torch and was going to pay more to face marina. Seems a joke now that marina facing cost more, The two sides were also inflated due to partial views. The only winners I think will be the people that purchased the cheaper apartments on the rear (facing away from marina). The sales team had a harder time shifting these and were doing better deals...

Well, it certainly adds to the profile of the tallest block. If counted with the podium this will be three more towers above 100 floors. With Pentominium, Princess, Marina 101 we'll now have 6 100+ story towers, plus the super tall Damac tower. Also, I heard that the Palm Hotel/Hard Rock Cafe plot was sold for Dhs 750 million. So, another 100+ story office tower, hotel complex there, I would imagine. Eventually you called have a dozen or so 100 story towers in this area. Parking? Marina Arcade will have 850 stalls, while this Marina complex will probably have 1000 or 2000. Access, congestion issues? Metro, metro, metro!
