what will fill the tower? I mean, what sort of demand is there for office space in Jeddah?

I'm confused. I read articles that say this project is currently under construction. Is there any possible way to either confirm that it is or to say that it isn't. And by construction I mean crews actively working on site.

^You're not the only one who's confused. . . I'm sure we'll hear more about it once some concrete evidence shows up. . .

Cool

Ahh yes, the quintessential megatall skyscraper in the middle of nowhere aka an desert oasis being built for no other reason other than hey look at me I'm money laundering oil funds. I guess it will still be interesting to see it completed

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.

You can't see the curve of the earth from 1000 metres up.

Looks like it's gotta be nearing 900ft or higher, no?

Behind the project are architects Adrian Smith and Gordon Gill of AS+GG Architecture in Chicago. Robert Forest, a partner at the firm, told Newsweek the team is eyeing an August 2028 completion of the tower. The firm told the outlet an “exact number of floors and height will be unveiled upon completion,” but it “will have more than 130 floors.”

Forest said: “Construction activities have ramped up, and the atmosphere on site is robust. The entire team is committed and focused on realizing this iconic structure for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia."
