A 3,281 foot tall high skycraper?

[Hector]

Set to surpass the current record holder...Dubai's Burj Khalifa. This new structure...Kingdom Tower...is set to be at least 568 feet higher.

Holy smokes...I'm getting dizzy just looking at those prints...

A sky terrace in the 157th floor?

Imagine the nut you would have to be to be a window washer.

I think it's kind of funny that America don't care if other countries have the tallest buildings in the world nowadays

America is like, --- meh, been there - did that

That's cause America's so broke that they don't have the $20 billion to do it

Just thinking about it gives me the willies.

I have vertigo and therefore have a nasty problem with heights.

*shudder, shudder*.

With that kinda height, will they have to issue oxygen to the people living or working on the top floors...?

Hmmmm....

Every time someone talks about huge buildings I think of the Frantics....

Can you imagine how fast the freakin' express elevator will go in a beast that tall? I mean, if it didn't go at least over 20 m.p.h., it would take a while to reach the top....!

Nope. It's because Insurance Companies won't cover most buildings above 80 floors now & tenants are leery about renting top floors due to 9/11, (because you probably won't get out alive if the building is rammed with an airplane). The Freedom Tower which replaces WTC does not have any offices above floor 79 or so,(?). It's just empty structure I think. Maybe observation decks, (because less people can be killed if tourists are on observation decks than employees working there on a daily basis). These Arabs are just kidding themselves tho. Their own kind will turn on a dime and take that building down in a terrorist attack if they fall out of favor.

Looks to me like they're over-compensating for something.
