Dubai, when will Burj Dubai open?
 
I have looked at the official webiste for Burj Dubai, but there is not indication of when the building will open. If any fodorites have any information about Burj Dubai please let me know.

Thanks.

Did the Burj close? When? Why?
Too expensive? No more rich folk who could afford their rates?

sandi, I think you are thinking of Burg Al Arab, the hotel. I am inquiring about Burj Dubai, which will be the world's tallest building.

Ooooops, hate when so many places have similar names.

Anyways, tall buildings and me don't get on well together. Hate heights, even living in NYC. Good luck when you find out.

My ooooops, I spelt Burj Al Arab wrong. Yes, it can be confusing when so many places have similar names. I should have written in my op, that I am inquiring about the world's tallest building.

It opened on January 4th and it has been renamed from Burj Dubai to Burj Khalifa. Here is my Dubai trip report with some photos: http://gardkarlsen.com/Dubai_UAE_trip_report.htm

The Burj Dubai Tower aka Burj Khalifa stands testimony to the fact that "If you can dream it, you can build it." The tallest building Dubai or the world has built, you can catch some amazing photos and facts and figures of this great monument to mankind.
