You can see it in person if you became a Muslim. I would really like to see the whole developent surrounding the building nearing completion and a few more towers as Mecca really needs stunning buildings. I hope they can get the best designers around the world and take inspiration from buildings built and being built to really build some awesome structures. Saudi already has one of the best looking skyscrapers in the world
My favourites are
Burj Khalifahangahi
Shanghai World Financial Centre
International commerce centre
Bahrain WTC
The Shard (UC)
WTC one (UC)
We are going to see some amazing structures in the next 20+ years!
