Originally scheduled for completion at the end of this year, the tower, whose final height remains a closely guarded secret, had its target date put back to next April. Media reports now say the further postponement is partly due to a plan to add extra floors. But Emaar said the delay was due to the upgrading of apartments following a two to three-month redesign process.
Meanwhile, Emaar unveiled a giant water fountain, complete with light and sound show, within its dhs800 million Burj Dubai Lake project. It said the landmark would be about 25 per cent larger than ‘The Fountains at Bellagio’ in
Las Vegas and expects it to draw ten million visitors a year. The developer is offering all UAE residents the chance to win a cash prize of dhs100,000 in a competition to name the fountain, which is set to be operational early next year.
The competition will run from July 1 to September 15, and entrants can submit their ideas on Emaar’s web site.
