No, it's not the Burj Dubai anymore. Nakheel has announced a ridiculous 1km tall tower. What is the point???
See this link. The National Newspaper ![]() |

Classic male thinking. Besides the obvious phallic connotation. I hate tall buildings and refuse to get up in them. Will there be firetrucks with 1km ladders on them? Nope.

Yep!!! Traffic is a MAJOR issue in Dubai! We are opening another office in Dubai next year. the allocation is one parking spot for every 750sqft. We have 9500 sqft of office
![]() and there is no other parking space available in the vicinity... so where will 37 employees plus visitors park? ![]() Mishu you couldnt have said it better ![]() |

No, but you will be required to take a crash course in base jumping if you plan to visit the top of the building!

phallic, phallic. There is a town here in Tuscany where during the 13th century (notoriusly the pinnacle of civilization) the wealthiest families challenged each other to build the highest tower. The challenge stopped when they realized that, being the town built on and around a hill, the families living on the top of it had an unmatchable technical advantage to get their towers look higher....
14 of the 74 towers built at that time still exist: ![]()

You'd need a gun to get me on that lift!
Funny how we can be comfortable underwater with no air (horrifying to most people) but so scared of heights. Me anyway! Like they say, it's not the falling I'm scared of... it's the landing.

The taller they stand, the deeper they must quarry.
