    Its worth saying the Dubai Creek Tower is just an insurance policy to keep the title of the world's tallest building in Dubai. Hence when construction of the Jeddah Tower was halted the construction of the Dubai Creek was also halted. I doubt it will be restarted until somewhere actually starts to build a skyscraper taller than the Burj Khalifa

    Jeddah tower construction resumes in March 2021.
    Dubai Creek Tower, additinal documentation is needed and will be resumed in February 2021 and will be finished by September 2023.

    The contract with Binladin company that is supposed to build the Jeddah Tower, will end in approximately 2 months, so I hope after it ends, they will find another company and continue building the skyscraper.

    Is it possible to be free of attachment without effort? It is possible if you go at it and it doesn’t take time. When you see that one of the major factors of the self is attachment and what it does in the world your own perception set you free.

      I find it strange that only middle eastern and more specifically gulf countries are dreaming up these skyscrapers, not sure why not many other countries or regions are planning the same, it's perhaps possibly a little too ambitious.
