They already have the Burj Dubai, and now they're going to be working on this? Awesome as hell. I wish we were building stuff like this here in the US.

I beat you too it by about 35 seconds... I even measured it in smoots.

At least New Ziedrich managed to spell Dubai correctly in the title of his thread, SaintB.

I'm sorry, I'm pretty certain that before long our threads will merge, and there is a good chance yours will be the master one since I misspelled Dubai

BTW, cool link...
Thanks! I found it a few years ago on the Simtropolis forums, in a thread matching Sim City 4 buildings to their real-life counterparts. Emporis is one of my favorite websites now.
