The Tower (Arabic: البرج‎‎),is an upcoming skyscraper to be located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, at a preliminary cost of AED3.67 billion (US$1 billion) and is expected to be completed in 2020. Dubai’s new tallest tower will emit a ‘beacon of light’ from its peak at night, the engineering company working on the project has revealed. Once completed, Emaar Properties’ Dubai Creek Harbour tower project, known simply as ‘The Tower’, will be more than 1014 meters high. At the top will be an oval-shaped bud, housing ten observation decks, including The Pinnacle Room, which will offer 360-degree views of the city, according to a statement from engineering firm Aurecon, which will work with architect Santiago Calatrava on the project. The tower’s summit will emit a beacon of light at night, evoking the features of a flower bud that appears to hover above the structure, said the statement. “The Tower will test the craftsmanship of Aurecon as we play our part in making a mark on the built fabric of mankind,” said Adrian Jones, Aurecon’s project director for The Tower. “It is an absolute privilege to be entrusted by Santiago Calatrava and Emaar Properties to work on this project, and we have assembled a stellar team to bring this idea to life.” The design includes a distinctive net of steel cable stays that attach to a central reinforced concrete column that will reach into the skies. Emaar Properties chairman Mohamed Alabbar described the new project as an "elegant monument" which is going to add value to property being developed by the company along city's creek. "The tower will be slender, evoking the image of a minaret, and will be anchored to the ground with sturdy cables" - Emaar said.
