indeed i hawe seen the Burj Khalifah and its very hard to realise just how tall that it is when you are standing right by it.
will be really intresting to see if they actually go ahead with 1,6 kilometre height thats an insane push up from Burj Khalifah.
and if they do it may remain the worlds largest for a very long time, as it is today only the richest Arab states and maybe china can pull off such insanely tall towers i guess.
seeing this in maybe 10-15 years topped out at 1.6 kilometre would be wacko
and as for the approval process in Saudi arabia i guess it is like Dubai what the King and Royals say is the law so, when they figure out just how to do it they will probably do it.
and Saudi Arabia hawe been stacking up oil money for 50 Years now and hawent diversified their economy at all really so they are in need of pulling of an even bigger boom than Dubai i guess both in Tourism and Trade/Industry.
and this certantly is a very big tourism and attention booster even if it dont fill up right away
