The world’s tallest building

OK – the Burj Dubai is not completed yet. That’s scheduled for September 2009, at a cost building of three Millau Viaducts. But it has already set a number of records:

  • Tallest structure: over 636 m
  • Building with most floors: 164
  • Highest vertical concrete pumping: 601 m

It actually looks most impressive photographed from above. More photos here. There’s a short animation showing the speed of construction (which started on 2005-02-01) here.
