Nakheel Harbour & Tower

Onur commented...

First design was a composition of a three main towers
Second one was a giant rocket that could fly to outer space
And the last; a ball ink pen

That could only be a concept.

Nakheel Tower was a proposed skyscraper in Dubai. Ground works almost started when the financial crisis hit Dubai and the project was put on hold until December 2009 when they announced the cancellation of the project.

Designed by the developments wing of major investment company Nakheel, the tower would have been more than a kilometre high, covering a space of around 270 hectares, and would become home to around 55,000 people, a workplace for 45,000, and was hoped will attract millions of visitors each year.

Nakheel Tower comprises of four individual towers within a single structure, a distinctive crescent-shaped podium encircling the base and complementing the structure’s remarkable height. The multibillion-dollar development also included 250,000 sq m of hotels and hospitality space, 100,000 sq m of retail space and huge expanses of green spaces, including canal walks, parks and landscaping. The Tower itself, cited geographically central to Dubai at the intersection of Sheikh Zayed Road and the Arabian canal, aimed to complement surrounding developments, such as Jumeirah Park and Discovery Gardens.
