‘Burj Khalifa’, developed by Emaar Properties, is the world’s tallest building according to the three criteria of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat: ‘Height to Architectural Top’, ‘Height To Highest Occupied Floor’, and ‘Height To Tip’.
The tower is 320 metres taller than Taiwan’s Taipei 101, which had held the title of world’s tallest building since 2004, the year when the project was announced.
Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman of Emaar Properties, said that the tower represented a symbol of hope to the Arab world and a shining example of human achievement.
