Global Construction Watch

Hardly do we get this confused about a project. The project in question is The Landmark in Abu Dhabi (UAE), which apparently, belongs to Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan (under Abu Dhabi’s Department of the President Affairs).

The Pelli Clarke Pelli designed 80+ storey building would be Abu Dhabi’s tallest spanning over 1,100 feet (335.28m).

Apart from the main contractors changing from Bauer Intl to Al Habtoor engineering, we have not been able to get our hands on rendered images of its side or back but can confirm (from the pictures below) that contruction has begun & gone above ground level already.

If you would like to track this project, we suggest you check out Al Habtoor Engineering’s official website.
