I LOVE the new renderings...the other one, while interesting, just was too massive for its own good, IMHO. I see no reason why the top could not be supported by the "smaller' bottoms.

That will be one of the most amazing buildings, if it gets built. It is so light and imaginative. Truly a great piece of work.

What I was saying was that in this on the picture to the right the top seems to be supported by two very slender towers which can not hold the weight of something so big, but in the picture to the left you see the true size of the supporting towers.

Wow. That is simply amazing. I'm going to hold off visiting Dubai for 5 years, that's when they'll have run out of ideas.
