Introduction
The city of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates has developed especially since the turn of the millennium as one of the most important metropolises in high-rise construction, comparable to New York City or Hong Kong. The first major project of the city was the Burj Al Arab, the 321 meters was in 1999 not only the tallest building in the city, but until 2007 the tallest hotel ( a title he had to give to the also located in Dubai Rose Tower ). In addition, he was selected for its remarkable architecture ( the building is also built on an artificial island) to Dubai landmark. Just one year later, in 2000, the two Emirates Towers were completed. The first tower, the Emirates Office Tower, took over for another nine years the rank of the city on the Persian Gulf 's tallest building. Its height is 355 meters. In 2009, the 363 meter high Almas Tower gained briefly the title of the highest skyscraper in Dubai. Already in 2004, work began on the Burj Khalifa ( Burj Dubai during construction ), which was completed in 2010. With a height of 828 meters, it is not only by far the tallest building in the city, but with a significant margin the highest building ( and building ) of the earth. However, currently (as of 2014) are in Dubai, several other buildings under construction (more than ten projects will be higher than 300 meters), as for example, the Princess Tower (414 meters), Dream Dubai Marina ( 432 meters ) and 376 feet high Emirates Park Towers. With 516 meters, the Pentominium will be after its completion ( currently planned for 2014 ) is not only the second highest building of the city, but also the tallest residential building in the world. For economic reasons, however, since August 2011, the work rest.
Due to the international economic crisis but also some larger projects have been canceled or the construction has been set. Thus began the end of 2008 the construction of the Nakheel Tower, which would have exceeded a height of over 1,000 meters, the Burj Khalifa as the tallest structure in the world. However, the work was stopped at the beginning of 2009, since then a further construction seems unlikely. Thus, the construction work on the Burj Al Alam were stopped, the projected height at 510 meters is (completion currently scheduled for 2015 ). The interrupted construction of the 400 m high Lighthouse Towers had to be canceled, due to complete in mid-2010.
