The red and white is going to be covered no?

I really hope the spire looks better than this. I was hoping for a thin, sleek, shiny spire. The main tower still looks amazing thought and the construction period was pretty fast as well. One of the most original towers of "our" time.

I reckon the red and white's staying - at that height it must act as a visibility beacon to aircraft

Why isn`t Burj Dubai painted red and white?

muppet · #**268** Posted **Apr 26, 2009, 7:16 PM**

because its not statutary law there?

or maybe red/ white denotes radio masts?

more red n white pornage:

There are 4 in the last pic

malec · #**269** Posted **Apr 26, 2009, 10:02 PM**

I doubt that is the final height of the antenna. Won't they be jacking it up like the burj dubai spire?
For example it looks like it should go higher according to this model

Aleks · #**270** Posted **Apr 27, 2009, 6:11 AM**

I don't think it'll get taller. Right? It might just be the impression because of the surrounding construction equipment, the scaffolding, etc, etc... I could be wrong/ I did see something wrong with that spire and like I said, something sleeker would've been better.

Complex01 · #**271** Posted **May 6, 2009, 5:08 PM**

Wow looks kewl. I really love this tower, i want one, he he...

Those two last pictures are wayy to over exposed. But they're good and that last one shows us a great view of both supertalls going up.

I so badly wanted to get some good pictures of this tower last weekwnd, but the weather was the worse.
Anyway, it looks great in the sunlight.

Aleks · #**280** Posted **Jun 8, 2009, 1:44 AM**

That first picture is wonderful! And I still don't see much work being done on the framework. Will they paint it? Just clean it? I hope that the final product looks better.
