Dubai developer Emaar Properties said the design of its observation tower coming up at Dubai Creek Harbour has been short-listed from a competitive international design pitch.
The yet-to-be-named tower is being designed by Spanish/Swiss architect, structural engineer, sculptor and painter Santiago Calatrava Valls, who is credited with works including the World Trade Centre Transportation Hub in New York, Chicago Spire Tower, Calgary Peace Bridge and the Olympic Sports Complex in Athens.
The spectacular observation tower will be directly linked to the central island district of Dubai Creek Harbour with a vibrant 4.5 km creek boardwalk offering an array of retail, dining, leisure and entertainment choices.-TradeArabia News Service
