Princess Tower
The Princess Tower is a residential skyscraper that is currently under construction in Dubai. This supertall will be finished in 2010 and it will rise to 414 meters (1,358 feet) and have 107 floors. The building was originally proposed at only 90 floors. When complete, Princess Tower will be the world’s tallest all-residential building, taking the title from the Q1 (building) in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. However, due to an epic skyscraper boom, the Princess Tower’s reign as the world’s tallest all-residential tower will not last long.
Upon completion in 2011, Pentominium will become the tallest all-residential tower at a height of 618 Meters. When finished, it will include the most expensive apartments of the world, the best of which may cost US$85,000,000. The ground floor "Entrance Hall" of the building will be gilded with white gold (confirmed in January 2008 by the builder). This decoration will be supplemented with diamonds, opals, rubies, sapphires and crystals (also confirmed in January 2008 by the builder).
As of 5th November 2009, 75 stories of Princess Tower have been completed.
