Behold the behemoth

Drove past the site of Burj Dubai last night and it appears to be rising to a level that can be seen over the fence, even from the Weasel's middle-age crisis sports car.
For those that don't know, this is destined to be the tallest building in the world, until the next one is built just down the road or in China.
Now I have to say that I was very skeptical about this project in the beginning and pretty much wrote it off as another bout of collective willy waving, in a "mines bigger than yours" kinda fashion. But recently I have started to get a bit excited about it, and to be honest am really glad to be here as such a historic building is built. It promises to be an amazing sight as it rises out of the sand.
