First of all, so everything you post is everything there is to know about this building?

The Ryugyong is planned to become a mixed-use development, including "revolving restaurant" facilities along with "a mixture of hotel accommodation, apartments and business facilities" according to BBC quoting Orascom's Mr. Bichra. Other sources have hinted on the future multi-purpose nature of Ryugyong, including one quoting that Ryugyong's "3,000 rooms, offices, restaurants, nightclubs and banquet halls remain hollow shells."
Notice the quotes.

Use your common sense, who is going to use this hotel and all its amenities? All its tourists? Not in the most xenophobic country in the world.

Features that Orascom has installed include exterior glass panels and telecommunications antennas. It is unclear to what extent Orascom plans to complete the building.
Its a building with just exterior glass and an antenna.

You might be thinking "Gee, that's pretty stupid who would do that?" North Korea would: http://www.cracked.com/article_17165...ship-ever.html
