World's tallest tower with a twist

...and the twist is?




It's not the world's tallest tower at all. It's just the world's tallest tower with a somewhat twisted style to its architecture.

This report comes you to from the world's largest cell with a dying bougainvillea, 48 cockroaches, a green lava lamp and a gecko called Specky

fantastic - just what we need at the entrance to the marina - not!

the scale of the thing is just going to make everything around it look silly.

there goes the view for the Dubai Marina 1 residents - and another 3 years of pile-driving and building cacophony.

honestly it isnt that ugly, certainly nothing can compare to the ugliness of trump tower or tulip or whatever that stupid thing is supposed to be.

I agree with samuraisam. I'ts not a bad looking building. The Trump tower is hideous!!

What I don't like about this report is that it's not really the " world's tallest building" or the "world's widest flagpole" or whatever.... but it's the worlds tallest building"with a twist"

Bad marketing, but confirms Dubai's love affair with extreme adjectives!!

Just to tell you there's no way this thing will make everything around look silly since there are another 5 or 6 towers with similar heights coming up in the same area. Aswell, I've no idea where they got the idea of world's tallest twisting tower since there's a tower in Chicago that'll be over 400m when it gets built. This one's only just over 300m.

Also that picture is probably the ugliest picture of this tower available. Go to infinitytower.com and you'll see it doesn't look half bad
