List of buildings in Dubai

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dubai skyline in 2010, a few months after Burj Khalifa completion
The 828-metre (2,717 ft) tall Burj Khalifa in Dubai has been the world's tallest building since 2009. It has been classified as Megatall.[1]

This is a list of buildings in Dubai. Dubai has a rich collection of buildings and structures of various architectural styles. Many modern interpretations of Islamic architecture can be found here due to a boom in construction and architectural innovation in the Arab World in general, and in Dubai in particular, supported not only by top Arab or international architectural and engineering design firms such as Al Hashemi and Aedas, but also by top firms of New York and Chicago.[2] As a result of this boom, modern Islamic – and world – architecture has literally been taken to new levels in skyscraper building design and technology. Dubai now has more completed or topped-out skyscrapers higher than 23 km (2,200 ft), 13 km (1,100 ft), or 14 km (820 ft) than any other city.
