Dubai Creek Tower - bigger shopping & taller building in the old Creek

It doesn't seem long ago we were in Dubai and building was starting everywhere. Ten years later went to see the Burj Kalifa, the tallest skyscraper in the world at 829.8m high. IN another film we go up it for cocktails. Now two new buildings are in delayed construction because of COVID, but the Jeddah Tower plans to be 1,000m high. The Dubai Creek Tower will be a minimum height match to the Kalifa, but rumours abound of 1.3km. Unless it has 50% of the height for dwellings it cannot be called a skyscraper (that and the planned 68 miles of supporting cables. We will see. What we do know now, is why they built the metro there and called the station Creek. Now, the real reason the metro goes to the old creek is clear; there is to be bigger shopping, taller buildings and more people.

That means Dubai will want more ships and more cruisers.

CHAT GROUPS for cruisers - this is where you can ask those who have been on the ship or to the port. Our many friendly chat sites welcome you.
