EL BURJ DUBAI





Say hello to the world's new Tallest Building.
While you're at it, say hello to the world's tallest UGLIEST building.


1680 feet of conspicuous consumption.

So, I wonder, how high was the Tower of Babel before the Lord struck it down and did it look like this building?

I have heard folks refer to the United Nations building in the same context: lots of "babbling" going on, but not much else.

I'm not sure they had reinforced concrete, steel H beams, and welders back then. Probably, Babel's footprint was a teensy bit larger.

If this is Babel, I wonder what languages the people of Dubai will begin to speak...
