Burj Dubai reaches dizzy heights

Thursday, 06 Nov, 2007 0

DUBAI – Construction of the iconic Burj Dubai has almost reached the 160th floor and its still growing.

By the time that Emaar, the largest property company in Dubai, completes the Burj (the Tower) next year, it will rise to 164 floors, to be capped by a spire.

Developers say more floors can be added should anyone challenge the Burj as the world’s tallest tower block.
