Burj Dubai, the tallest building in the world.
According to the official HP(http://www.burjdubai.com/)as of 27 December 2007,
it reached a height of 598.5m, with 158 completed floors. Burj Dubai will finally be 643.3m tall with 162 floors in late this year.
Developer of the tower is Emaar, architect is Adrian Smith of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, and Samsung and other two companies are constructing it to hire asian workers.
Although Burj Dubai is the world tallest at this time, Al Nakheel, a rival developer of Emaar, has begun to soil test in Dubai for another super skyscraper of over 1,000m tall, thus Burj Dubai will lose the title of world's tallest building in near future.
This is the year of the mouse/rat in the Chinese astrological calendar, even so you dont need a rat race.
Wish you the compliments of the season.
