At the top [des nuages]
1 February 2010
A colleague sent me this picture yesterday and it’s worth sharing here.
Ladies and gentlemen, the view from the observatory deck on the 124th floor of the Burj formerly know as Dubai, yesterday morning, 7:45 AM:
This is a visual metaphor of the Burj’s presence and existence in Dubai, as the sole building standing out of the desert landscape. All its neighboring towers —whom most are twice the size of Place Ville-Marie— are dwarfed by its presence. It stands alone in Dubai’s sky.
Also, the Burj Khalifa counts 160 floors, all of which, starting from the 125th up, are offices. On cloudy days: day dreaming up, productivity down.
