Arrow DUBAI | Marina Supertalls (10 Projects) | > 300m

Rather than having 6 or 7 new threads I decided to put all these towers into the one thread. Reason? Well, since these towers are all being built in the same area they'll make a nice cluster. Also I know not all the towers have the most interesting designs but together they'll make some impact and will be quite a landmark in itsself. Not sure if these towers are required to have shops at the base but some definitely will.








Here are the towers:

The Torch - 338m
Height - 338m
Floors - 80
Status - Rising (almost at the top floor)
Developer - Select Properties

Ocean Heights
Heights - 310m/1050ft
Floors - 82
Status - Rising (Last floor reached, only need to built the top fin)
Developer - Damac
Architect - Aedas





Infinity Tower - 307m
Height - 307m/1007ft
Floors - 80
Status - Rising (Above the 30th floor)
Developer - Cayan
Architect - SOM





My thoughts on this cluster. The effect will be very striking with all the tall towers but since these are residential towers I think it's too dense. Look at marina 101 for example, kind of ironic that a tower over 400m that's just some metres from the sea will have barely any view of it
