World's Tallest Building

World's Tallest Building

Burj Dubai... 900 meters high.

A new tower in the booming Gulf emirate of Dubai has become the tallest building in the world. The tower, scheduled for completion in 2008, is one of a string of grandiose projects taking shape in Dubai, which is part of the United Arab Emirates. The skyscraper will be more than 700 metres tall and have more than 160 storeys, but its exact projected height is a secret.

It will have cost $1.14 billion by the time it is completed.
