DUBAI | Burj Al Alam | 1,673 FT / 510 M | 108 FLOORS | ON HOLD
The 101F burj al alam (used to be called fortune 101). Finally it's been released :D
I love it. It's Dubaish but is very graceful I think. Is located in business bay and will probably hit 400m!! http://i2.tinypic.com/swyfzr.jpg Their website is still under construction but you can still see a video if you check it out: www.burjalalam.com |
It's a beautiful building. Very nice.
|
I've added this to the database and estimated the height as 450m. Could someone draw a diagram of this thing since it's definitely one of the great ones
|
It's great.
Insanely slender, but great. |
very futuristic looking. would look great in Dubai w/Burj Dubai and Burj al Arab.
What is the tallest commercial tower in the world ? To the roof, is it still not The Sears Tower? (i dont count spires, otherwise i would guess Taipei 101). from the renderings it doesnt look as tall as Sears. But a very distintive looking building none the less. |

sorry, double post. damn computer !!!
|
Love it. Incredible slender and a flower design as the crown. :)
|
Cool!
|
Is it too much to ask that at least the name and height, or a general description be included in the title of the thread? If so, my apologies.
|
I agree. Keep it standard so we can at least know what we're clicking on.
Nice tower by the way. |
best one in Dubai IMO.
|
The tower is exactly 101F by the way. It's not an estimation
|
Tower has been launched. Will post the details when I get back from my music lesson :)
|
Now if this doesn't get a new post between today and tomorrow I'll kick all your asses!!! :hell: :hell: :hell:
The tower has been officially launched. Source = http://www.ameinfo.com/81674.html Website = www.burjalalam.com (it's still under construction but will be up and running in a few days) Important facts from the article in case you couldn't be arsed reading: Height: 480m Floors: 108 (I know I know, I was wrong) Cost: ~$1.1bn Construction period: 2006 - 2009 Uses: 74 floors of office 27 floors of hotel and way out of your league serviced apartments Retail space near the ground A small render: http://www.ameinfo.com/images/news/4/23494-burj.jpg |
Who are the tenants for this and other Dubai buildings? Or are they all mostly speculative projects, financed by oil fortunes?

Most of the Dubai towers are either res of hotel. This tower has just been launched so we don't know who the tenants will be yet.
BTW, this most definitely needs a diagram |
Will 480M be high enough to stay in the top 5 world's tallest with the other construction going on?
|
Well, if it gets completed in 2009 it won't even be in the top 5. By then the top 5 will be burj dubai, taipei 101, SWFC, Abraj al Bait and ICC. By then also, the fordham spire, tower of russia and freedom tower (hopefully) will be well on their way
