Saudi Arabia aims to break the record of Burj Khalifa
Work is underway on the project to build the world's tallest skyscraper, measuring 2 kilometers in height, in Saudi Arabia – reports The Architects’ Journal. The building will compete with the tallest 828-meter Burj Khalifa in Dubai and the 423-meter JPMorgan Chase Tower in New York.
Since 2022, F+P has been overseeing the expansion of the airport, renamed King Salman International Airport, located north of the country's capital. According to plans, by the time the investment is completed in 2030, it will be the largest airport in the world in terms of passenger volume – reports Middle East Monitor.
The proposed project of the tallest building in the world will be the largest undertaking of the F+P company, following the 423-meter JPMorgan Chase Tower at 270 Park Avenue in New York.
