After years of delays, Jeddah Tower—set to become the world’s tallest skyscraper—is back under construction.
Soaring beyond one kilometer into the sky, this futuristic giant is redefining what’s possible in architecture and engineering.
Started all the way back in 2013, the construction had stalled at the 63rd floor for years, with some wondering if the building might be cancelled altogether.
Just this week, a ceremony restarting the construction began, and if things go as planned, the tower will be completed in 2028.
Designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, the tower is a symbol of ambition, set to surpass Dubai’s Burj Khalifa as the planet’s tallest structure.
Located in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, the sleek, tapering form draws inspiration from desert landscapes while pushing the limits of vertical urbanism.
The resuming of construction is reigniting excitement about this record-breaking marvel.
When completed, Jeddah Tower will not only claim the height crown but also reshape the skyline in breathtaking fashion.
