The new Creek Tower being redesigned by Emaar is “unlikely” to be the tallest structure in Dubai, according to the company’s founder Mohamed Alabbar.
“A lot of work is still going on the redesign, I’m not sure it will be the tallest tower in Dubai. We have to always look at our bottom line and deliver value to our customers and our shareholders,” Alabbar said.
The original cable tied tower was designed to be 100m taller than the Burj Khalifa, and the centre piece to the Dubai Creek Harbour development. However, after foundations were laid in 2017, and following the pandemic, work was paused.
