The Gate development on Reem Island, United Arab Emirates is currently under construction. We’re talking about a total of 11,300,000 sq. feet of development space. The Sky Tower will be the tallest tower in Abu Dhabi and (only) the fifth largest tower in UAE. 

Topping out at 83 stories and 300 meters, it is anticipated that Sky Tower will be the first building in the UAE to receive LEED certification. The Gate Development will include five 62-story towers and two 31-story buildings. Designed and planned by Arquitectonica, The Gate is supposed to become the gateway to a new city.

It’s a pretty incredible looking development. By all means, check the images below and see if you agree that it has a slight resemblance to Stonehenge. When completed, The Gate will have a total of 4,600 residential units, 344,488 sf of office space, and 44,291 sf of retail space.

Build this in Las Vegas or Phoenix AZ, Albq NM. Nice. Radical. But worry about Hi rise fire safety. See 1974 movie Towering Inferno, Irwin Allen movie.
