Counting the six tallest uncompleted residential flats in the world

If there is pressure to build a house, then the pressure to build a skyscraper is as great as a nuclear bomb: problems are constantly emerging, and the chaos caused by interlocking with the economy is enough to make the plan fall through.

This is not just the fate of a tall building. Many super skyscrapers (over 984 feet) did not come true after planning. When it comes to skyscrapers, people are often used to praising them, but recently, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (Council)
on Tall Building and Urban
Habitat) aims at a special group of high-rise buildings: failed and ingenious buildings that started at first but ended in nothing.

Next, you will see a series of buildings that are going to be the tallest buildings in the world or close to them. Don’t forget, there are many other projects that are stagnant or reserved. The Committee on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat defines it as "the site project has been started, but it has been completely stopped, and there is no report that construction will continue."

Palm Island Tower: Piling Stage

No place was hit by the financial crisis in 2008 on such a scale as Dubai. Dozens of high-profile projects in the country were interrupted, including the Palm Island Tower. This skyscraper, which is estimated to be 1.005 kilometers high and contains 156 elevators, is planned to become the economic center and the biggest landmark of Jumeirah artificial palm island, but now this series of artificial islands in Dubai are suffering from serious erosion and other environmental problems.

The 718.1-meter-high Indian Tower can be considered as a purely post-recession plan. In 2010, the blueprint was located in Mumbai, and it was stopped in the second year after construction, and it is currently put on hold.

Another building affected by the financial crisis in 2008, the 612-meter-high Russian tower, started construction one year before the financial crisis, and then the developer announced that it could not provide the $3 billion needed for the project, and the site was later converted into a parking lot.

Located in Doha, this 551-meter-high tower is expected to become one of the tallest buildings in the world, but there is only one problem: it is too high. The government is worried that this will hinder pilots from landing and taking off at the new airport, and the project will be put on hold before the new airport is completed-or just waiting to be suddenly cancelled.

Dubai has repeatedly appeared on this list, and its real estate market with exponential growth was once prosperous, which also gave birth to the financial crisis in 2008. Dramatic and tense buildings like Burjera Alamta used to be a fashion: petal-shaped and blooming in the clouds at a height of 509 meters. In 2013, the project was cancelled after a long and repeated economic recession.

The Soviet Palace would have been the contrast of Russian dignitaries: a people’s palace erected from the ruins of demolished churches, a place that representatives of the emerging Soviet regime could provide. The palace, which was expected to be 495 meters high, was supposed to be the tallest building in the world. In fact, it was put into action, but it was interrupted by the outbreak of World War II. This circular foundation was finally built into the Moscow Pool, the largest pool in the world, and it has not been surpassed for decades.
