The Plans For The ‘World’s Tallest Tower’ Have Been Unveiled
Plans have been unveiled for a new tower in Dubai, which will be the tallest in the world.
Emaar Properties, the Dubai-based property developers, are planning to build ‘The Needle’, which will reach slightly higher than the 2,716 ft Burj Khalifa - the current record holder.
