World’s tallest residential tower rises in Dubai

Dubai developer Select Group is building what it claims will be the world’s tallest residential tower, at 517m, in the Dubai Marina district.

The 122-storey “Six Senses Residences” will mark “a new chapter in ultra-luxury living”, it said.

The tower will have 251 apartments, a 109th-floor skydeck, and a “longevity clinic”.

Its designers are WSP Middle East and Woods Bagot.

Select Group said the tower is at 25% completion and is scheduled for handover in 2028.
