world's tallest man-made structure
 
3 Attachment(s)
The Burj Dubai officially opened yesterday- 828m (2,700ft) tall and 162 stories. Took a little over 5 years to build at a cost of $800 million. I would not want to be one of the guys that has to wash those windows.

BTW- in Dubai you can get a single cocktail that costs $7,500. 55-year-old Macallan single-malt with custom bitters and ice cubes made with water from the distillery in Scotland. All served in an 18 karat gold tumbler.

Paradise in no where.

Surprisingly, it doesn't look that tall in person. It just looks awkward!

Want to see a cool building in Dubai?
