The Dubai Creek Tower was supposed to have a height of at least as high as the Burj Khalifa (828m) and possibly as much as 1300 meters. It isn't a building, and it is described as an observation tower, with cables holding it in place, and only a few floors near the top would be occupied. The cost was estimated at $1 billion and it was originally supposed to be completed by 2021.
Work on the foundation began in October 2016 and was completed by May 2017. However, no work has been done since then and the tower will likely never be completed. The coronavirus pandemic has caused all construction to be stopped in Dubai.
