Lighthouse Tower
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
The 49th tallest building in the world
The Lighthouse Tower is a supertall, commercial skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates designed by multi-national architectural firm Atkins. It was planned to be constructed in the Dubai International Financial Centre, and was set to rise to 402 metres (1,319 ft) and have 64 floors. The tower was planned to be a Green Building with a huge emphasis put on reducing its carbon footprint and conserving energy. The tower would have rose as two separate towers, bridged from level 10, all the way up to approximately 300 metres (980 ft) above ground. The structure was to hold a number of skygardens. Construction was suspended in 2009 and the building was never finished.
