Burj Al Alam, Dubai
Status: Abandoned
Designed to resemble a crystal flower, this 108-storey monolith in Dubai would have been one of the world’s tallest buildings. Plans featured private apartments, rooftop gardens, and a five-star hotel with the highest bedrooms in the world. Its lofty crown would also hold the world’s highest Turkish bath – developers in Dubai are certainly never shy of a record-breaking challenge. The project broke ground in 2006, but stalled and was officially cancelled in 2015, a victim of the Global Financial Crisis.
