I've heard a lot of talk about this tower. It's been said that this will become the world's tallest residential building at around 100 stories, but I've heard reports of the tower being up to 107!!

Here's a photo:

I'll change the title of it to 107 than.

I guess this will surpass 23 Marina, Ocean Heights, and the Najd Tower to become the World's tallest residential building. Although, I've heard reports that Miami is planning twin 110 residential buidings that would surpass the Princess Tower.

It kind of looks like the Empire State Building with the top of a mosque on it.

Heard that they are checking with the Guiness Book of World Records to get The Princess Tower added.

^
Is it for the World's Tallest Residential Building?

There the only real contendors in that category for it. I've heard some proposals in Miami though for twin 108 Floor Residential Buildings.

It's a good looking tower.  It does look kind of lonely out there, though.  It's kind of like "Dubai.. New York called, they want their tower back."

There's plenty of 80F and 90F Residentials going next to it, like the Infinity Tower, Najd Tower, etc. It is kind of lonely looking, I'm sure glad they put the dome on the top of it, even if it does look like the Empire State Building a bit.
