Moving skyscraper
Moving skyscrapers are tall buildings in which individual floors can rotate on its axis. The world’s first such building will be built in Dubai.
The tower which will be built in Dubai is designed by an Italian architect, David Fisher. It will have a total number of 80 floors. All the floors are pre-fabricated and can spin 360 degrees around a central column by means of power generated by the wind turbine located between each floor. The apartments are expected to cost about $3.7 million to $36 million. The construction is expected to be completed by 2010 with the cost of $700 million dollars.
There are plans to build a 70 story skyscraper in Moscow as well.
