Dubai Towers Doha

Did you know that what is to be the world's tallest building (beginning at ground level) is being created in Dubai at this very moment? It's due to be completed in 2008, at which time it will replace not the current title-holder of Taipei 101 but the International Business Centre in Seoul, which is coming up. However, the Taipei 101 and International Business Centre will be outdone in 2012, when Dubai's next mega-skyscraper (Al Burj) is scheduled to be completed.
Here is a model of the handsome-looking Burj Dubai, which is specially designed to withstand high winds with its multi-capsule structure.
