UPDATE January 24th, 2025:
During a ceremony on January 21st, key stakeholders, including Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, Chairman of Kingdom Holding Company (KHC), and representatives from Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, celebrated the milestone as concrete was poured for the 64th floor of Jeddah Tower.
The project, managed by Jeddah Economic Company, aims to complete one floor every four days, with an expected timeline of 42 months. The master plan, part of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, includes hospitals, schools, universities, additional towers, and residences for up to 100,000 people, reinforcing the ambition of the kingdom to become a global hub for innovation and economic opportunity.
