How disgusting!!! What is wrong with the people? Beirut is becoming the world's worst capital!


But isn't this where Icon tower was supposed to be?
This will look so hot at night! It will be Lebanon's tallest tower I think.

LeB.FR, what are you talking about? How could you not like this? What is wrong with this tower?
There's nothing wrong with the tower, but look at the location! This will ceate a huge concrete wall!
Oh damn! I didn't notice that its in Archafieh.
Your right. :/
This appears like it is near Icon, but not a replacement. But the architech seems to be NG!

the building structure is really weird. it would be nicer if it was 1 straight tower.
But nothing is going to change especially after they won that award.
If its on the highest point of the acshraifeh it will look 200m + from far away.
Well,it's not really bad looking !!!!!

plus along with the Icon tower if it's ever going to be built, will make Achrefieh the highrise part of Beirut.
The height is not bad at all.it should be around 170 meters. but not much glass involved :eek:hno: Sadly.unlike Icon tower.
There's nothing wrong with the tower, but look at the location! This will ceate a huge concrete wall!

If these two towers do get built that would really from one giant wall!
I want that to get built,Check this out :cheers:

According to my calculations this building is around 160M tall which makes it one of the tallest buildings in Beirut
So should we change the status to UNDER-C?
i think we should wait a little here. it's more likely going to be built which is gr8 news,but it's definitely not U/C,yet.
