The new tower in Dubai, called Burj Dubai, is not particularly pretty, but it sure is tall. On September 1st it was 688 meters tall. Because it is so slender, it doesn’t look that tall. That could change though once you are allowed to stand right under it. And it should look better if there are no sandstorms out and about. Here’s a crappy picture taken from the taxi :
And one from near the construction site :
Warning : the Burj Dubai website plays annoying music. But you can turn it off.
