The construction of the new world’s tallest skyscraper – the Kingdom Tower – is officially underway in Jeddah, the second largest city in Saudi Arabia.
The Kingdom Tower is designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture – the same designer of Burj Khalifa, the current world’s tallest structure. The Kingdom Tower will be over 1000 metres, at least 173m taller than Burj Khalifa (828m).
