Dubai City Tower

As you already know, world’s tallest tower can be found in Dubai, it’s the Burj Dubai. Once again, you already know that the upcoming world’s tallest tower will also be found in Dubai, the Nakheel Tower. But what happens when these towers will be just too small? Well, I’m really tired about this but those guys in Dubai aren’t and they are planning to build even a bigger tower than Nakheel, the Dubai City Tower.

The upcoming world’s tallest tower will measure 1.55-mile high and it will be build as a city within a city within a city as the tower itself is a city which will be build in the Jumeirah City which will be build in Dubai. Yeah, I know this phrase sounds awkward, but this is Dubai: AWKWARD.

“The hardest part is the servicing of the height: the transportation, power, water and waste disposal,” said Alastair Colling, from the International Council on Tall Buildings.

This vertical city will consist of six separate towers which will form together this marvelous structure. The transportation will be ensured by a 125mph bullet train which will send up&down passengers. Well, after you get your heart back from your pants, you will learn that the skyscraper will generate its own energy thanks to solar, wind, and thermal power.

I’m not sure about this project, but Dubai can really do it. The problem is that they have to start showing some respect to the workers by paying them better and treat them properly, not like slaves.

    Magnificent! This tower surpasses everything in size and beauty. Unfortunaty the credit-crunch is working against this new wonder of the world. Hopefully the crisis is not as long as expected, so this incredible project can move forward.

    I really hope I do not have to wait until 2040 to see this project realized. As this marvel is completed it will be a gift from the people of Dubai to the entire world.

    This tower celebrates life, and will help to bring optimism back in the hearts of everyone.

    So let’s start building as soon as possible!
