Oh look, another insane tower planned for Dubai! This one is dubbed the Anara Tower, and while it’s not going to be the tallest in the world (it’ll be about 500 feet shorter than the Burj Dubai at 2,150 feet), it’s still incredible all on its own.
The defining element of the Anara Tower has got to be the massive propeller-like structure at the very top, at the center of which will be a glass-ceiling hub containing one of the world’s most luxe restaurants. Unfortunately, the propeller doesn’t rotate, but I guess we’ll let that slide. In the tower itself there will be 300 insanely-expensive apartments, a 250-room luxury hotel and gardens every 27 floors. Places that the slaves building it won’t be enjoying. Construction is due to start by the end of next year assuming that their real estate and financial services don’t go to hell with the rest of the world. [Urbanity via Dvice]
