I saw that article before. Dubai is becoming the Disney World for architects! That building is crazy! I see he's planning on building one in Moscow too. I used to live in Moscow. That building is going to stick out like a sore thumb there!

Yeah, they are also building the those palm islands and the world's next tallest building.

I thought it was worth posting, I wonder how they are going to keep it spinning, i would love to see the mechanics of it.

that's insane. seems like an awful waste of great engineering thinking tho.

That money and time could be used for better things. Like economic transportation.. and other real issues the world is suffering.

WOW, no wonder petrol's expensive!...We have whats suppose to be the only revolving tower in the world at the minute...much smaller than that one though. It sits on a giant bearing...which keeps breaking! Its hardly worked since they built it. One of the days it was my dad and his missus went up it, and it broke! They got to spend six hrs stuck at the top! I hope they have better luck in dubai!
