As for the tower; its beautiful, but I agree, it's definately too tall for the area.


this little downtown is in the same area/neighborhood that Lamar Towers are being built so you do have a view. the area/neighborhood is called Jeddah corniche. Also Jeddah has four buildings that are completed that are over 500 feet tall, one tower is over 800 feet tall
so you do have a view. basically this tower is not in downtown, but more closer to the sea then the other tall structure.
