They are doing all this because they fear their oil will run out so they want to rely on tourism...You can bet that NO Jooos will be allowed in...

Dubailand. Currently, the largest amusement park collection in the world is Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, which is also the largest single-site employer in the United states with 58,000 employees. Dubailand will be twice the size. Again NO JOOS ALLOWED...

What burns me is that they are doing this on a foundation that has to be sand all the way down to China (or whatever is on the other side from where they are...), and all we can build on the granite foundations of Ground Zero is the dorky-in-the-extreme Freedom Tower.

Wow! But I'm still waiting for Sky City.

Thanks for this post. I am moving to Dubai in a few months with my family for my job. One of my co-workers told me that the hot new thing for expats in Dubai to do is to go to Yemen on vacation. He was serious. I guess soon I will become Cheesehead in Dubai.

As of 5 February 2008, Burj Dubai has reached a height of 604.9 m (1,985 ft), with 159 completed floors.

Burj Dubai's last two milestones will be to surpass the 628.8 m (2,063 ft) height of the KVLY-TV Mast in North Dakota, United States to become the world's tallest structure and to pass the Warsaw radio mast in Gąbin, Poland (646.4 m (2,121 ft) until it collapsed in 1991) to become the world's tallest structure of any type ever built.
