Work on the project, constructed by Dubai’s Arabtec, began in 2006. The 75-storey building has a 90 degree spiraling curve from top to bottom, and includes residential apartments, conference rooms, a tennis court, pools, a gymnasium, nursery, spa and retail outlets at the ground level. “The building has been built according to the highest international standards for towers,” stated Ahmed M. Al Hatti, president and chairman of the Cayan Group. He also confirmed to reporters that 80 per cent of the apartments have been sold. Last year, Dubai unveiled the world’s tallest hotel – JW Marriott Marquis, and the world’s tallest residential tower – Princess Tower, also in the Marina.
