Jeddah Tower │Construction Restarted On The Future Tallest Building In the World│ A Mile Tower?

The construction site of the Jeddah Tower (Kingdom Tower) is Back. Construction has Restarted On World's Tallest Future Building.
The Jeddah tower, also known as the Kingdom tower, will join other mind blowing Saudi Arabia's projects like NEOM ,the Line or Riyadh Metro.
The Burj Khalifa will soon lose its title of the world’s tallest building. Work has begun again on Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah Tower, also known as Kingdom Tower, which will surpass the height of the iconic building in Dubai once it’s fully constructed.
Jeddah Economic Company (JEC) has resumed work on the 1000-metre-plus (over 3,281 feet) tall building, which will be a mixed-use structure housing a luxury hotel, office spaces, serviced apartments, luxury condominiums and the world’s highest observatory.
The foundation and piling for the tower are already complete, and the tender is for constructing the superstructure of the tower. The work on it began in the early 2010s by the local SBC.
According to Gulf Business, the tower has a total area of roughly 5,30,000 square metres (5.7 million square feet). It is the central attraction and the first construction phase of the USD-20-billion Kingdom City development in Saudi Arabia, adds the report. The tower alone is expected to cost around USD 1.2 billion and will be at least 173 metres (568 feet) taller than Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, which has a height of 828 metres (2,716 feet), and was designed by Adrian Smith while at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
According to the report, the architecture firm said that the design for Jeddah Tower “represents an evolution and a refinement of an architectural continuum of skyscraper design”. The report adds, “The three-petal footprint is ideal for residential units, and the tapering wings produce an aerodynamic shape that helps reduce structural loading due to wind vortex shedding. Jeddah Tower’s design embraces its architectural pedigree, taking full advantage of the proven design strategies and technological strategies of its lineage, refining, and advancing them to achieve new heights”.
The new construction will be done using green technology and materials, and will focus on minimising energy consumption. Additionally, each of Jeddah Tower’s three sides will have a series of notches that create shadow pockets, shielding portions of the building from the sun while offering mesmerising views of the city and the Red Sea. Another interesting area of the building will be its sky terrace, which is roughly 30 metres in diameter. Located on the 157th floor, this terrace will be open to the public and serve as the world’s highest observatory.

Excellent video! As far as I know, Jeddah Tower will be 1008 meters. If this is true, the Oblisco Capitale Tower will be the tallest of all the buildings, at 1080 meters. It will only be second to the Dubai Creek Tower, which will be the largest structure ever made by man, measuring 1345 meters.

True but still not the tallest structure in the world
The true tallest structure in the world was mostly underwater Chevron's Bigfoot ETLP 1,580 meters in height and Magnolia ETLP 1,425 meters in height
(still taller than Dubai Creek Tower)

Imagine you have to live in such a monstrosity, 1 kilometer above the ground. Already the daily use of the elevators would be a nightmare.

I wonder what the sewer system will be like in such a tall tower!
