A Burj Too Far…

hann on Wed, April 2, 2008

...or too high, for that matter.

A Saudi billionaire prince is keen on giving a whole new meaning to the phrase “joining the mile high club”, if this is anything to go by.

Yes, a mile-high building. Dwarfing the under-construction Burj Dubai (585 m high) and a good two-thirds taller the upcoming Burj Mubarak in Kuwait (1001 m)... Might we have to coin the term spacescraper soon?

Well it seems to me like tall buildings in the Middle East is very much a burj-eoning trend.

A Burj is a fortified tower, as found in Indian gardens.
