A Muslim Country UAE has marked History, by erecting the World’s tallest icon, probably the only superscraper, giving the Muslims a reason to celebrate. It is the only tallest man made structure. It is the first time the Muslim world has claimed of having the title of the world’s tallest building since 1311, when Lincoln Cathedral exceeded the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
Khaleej Times - 4 January 2010
In January 2004, Dubai announced Burj Dubai to the world with the claim, ‘History Rising’. Six
years on and history has most certainly ‘risen’. Burj Dubai will soon be transformed into a vibrant community for thousands of residents, employees, hotel guests and tourists. Up to 12,000 people will live, work and play inside the world’s tallest building.
The tower is the focal point of the 500-acre master planned community Downtown Burj Dubai, which is widely described as the most prestigious square kilometre on earth.
Burj Dubai is the development’s crowing glory in every sense, a building that has pushed the boundaries of design and engineering further than many thought possible.
