Anara Tower


Anara Tower was a proposed supertall skyscraper located in Dubai. It would have been 600 m (1,968 ft) tall with 135 floors. It was designed to look like a massive wind turbine. If it was ever built the tower was supposed to be a mixed use tower with offices, retail spaces, apartments, and an art gallery. Anara Tower would have incorporated sky gardens every 27 floors and would have contained a luxury restaurant. It was to have been constructed as an energy efficient tower by installing renewable sources of energy and incorporating water efficiency strategies.
The building was cancelled in 2009.

  1. These towers actually won an international design award for technology. The outside covers actually open and close to filter out the suns rays.
