Emaar to start work on new high-rise tower at Dubai Creek

07/02/2016 Argaam

Emaar Properties, which is developing the Dubai Creek Harbour, expects to start construction within the next few months on the latest landmark high-rise near Dubai Creek, said Mohamed Alabbar, chairman of Emaar Properties.

 

Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum on Saturday chose Spanish-Swiss architect Santiago Calatrava to design the new tower from six consultancy firms.

 

The tower was described by Sheikh Mohammed as an "architectural wonder that will be as great as Burj Khalifa and Eiffel Tower." The name and dimensions of the tower have not yet been revealed.

 

Calatrava's designs include the World Trade Centre Transportation Hub in New York, the Chicago Spire Tower, and the Olympic Sports Complex in Athens.
