Dubai: Burj Aziz, the world’s second tallest tower, will be built on Dubai’s Sheikh Zayed Road.
Dubai-based Azizi Developments on Wednesday revealed that they would build a 725-metre- high tower on Dubai’s Shaikh Zayed Road that will eventually rank as the world’s second tallest. And within a short distance of the world’s tallest tower, the Burj Khalifa standing at 828 metres.
Freehold property
A freehold residential tower, the ‘Burj Azizi’ will span 131 plus floors. Sales of the residential apartments scheduled to start February 2025. The main contractor is to be announced soon enough, with Azizi projecting a completion date in 2028.
There will also be a hotel element, with an all-suite layout and ‘inspired by seven cultural themes’, and a shopping mall.
The location is right beside the World Trade Centre metro station.
Mirwais Azizi, Chairman of Aziz Group, said: “The Dh6 billion plus development ‘represents more than just the creation of an iconic structure — it is a commitment to transforming Sheikh Zayed Road and elevating Dubai's skyline to new, unparalleled heights.”
At the time of the plot buy, it was stated that this would be a ‘dream project’ for the chairman.
