On 26 th July 2009 construction of yet another skyscraper started in UAE. This supertall building called Pentominium will be a residential tower of about 516 meters or (1693 ft) height, with about 120 floors. The design of the building has been done by architects Aedas and funded by Trident International Holdings. The AED 1.46 billion (US$400 million) construction contract was awarded to Arabian Construction Company (ACC). The pentominium has one of the deepest excavation done in the world.
“With a strong pedigree of iconic projects under its belt, ACC boasts solid expertise in high-rises, with structures such as Elite Residence, Almas Tower, Rose Tower and The Westin Hotel. ACC came across as the natural winner and choice,” said Trident International Holdings executive director and CEO Wazir Daredia.
“Pentominium is a unique project that escalates the concept of luxury living to new heights and with construction major ACC on board, the project has joined a bouquet of brand partnerships we have forged for the development.” Here are some of the pictures of Pentominium.
