1 kilometre or 3,280 feet Skyscraper?



: : Nakheel Habour & Tower

  • 1,140 metres in height with over 200 floors underneath.
  • Will be world’s first inner city harbor.
  • Using the tallest elevators today that travel at 16.85 metres a second it could take over a minute to reach the top of the building
  • Construction area will be of 270 hectares.
  • Space for 55,00 inhabitants and workplaces for 45,000 people.
  • Like the Burj Dubai and many other record-breaking skyscrapers before it, the actual finished height is top secret with the developer worried someone else will come along and steal their thunder in the meantime.
