Half Kilometer tall !!!! :side: That's too big. I wonder how a person feel from the last floor, like sitting on a plane. :laugh:
It is no doubt very tall, but there is one coming up in Saudi Arabia which will be One Kilometer long and it will be a commercial complex as well as offices ,hotels and a few service apartments not exclusively a residential complex...
Good to here that India is also developing in the field of architecture. However I still feel that corruption won't interfere as usual.. have seen the bad construction of flyover in cities like Bengluru
India has one of the best techniques in architectural field but this is all about tallest building and its utility. The overpopulated country is looking its refuse in vertical raised structures but they shall have to be very careful as Mumbai is situated on hollow grounds.
@ mala, I have already explained that this is not The Tallest building in the world rather The tallest residential building in the world. Burj Khalifa in Dubai is the tallest building as of now and a building that is one kilometers long is being build at Jeddah in Saudi Arabia which will probably be the tallest in the world after it gets through...there is also another building coming up in Shanghai which will be slightly taller than Burj Khalifa..
