Gutterland Police Blotter: Dubai Robs Boston's Best! Thursday, February 9, 2006
Oh, great Guttersnipe-- · DOS Architects to Build in Dubai [WAN] Reader Comments (14 extant) 1. It's in a desert, it's a mirage. By Freddy Botchy at February 9, 2006 12:46 PM2. How many fake projects in Dubai can we have though? Every architect makes up these renderings and claims to have huge projects in Dubai.. 99% are lying. By Angered at February 9, 2006 12:53 PM3. Obviously those two towers in the background won't be built. They're just thrown into the render in order to make it looks better. Dubai isn't robbing anything here. The only person who's robbing is whoever decided to use Boston's skyscrapers in the render. This is to be located in Dubai marina where in fact none of the towers in the background will be built. Obviously there'll be other skyscrapers around it if built but definitely not Boston's By Anonymous at February 18, 2006 11:29 AM4. OK to add to what I said. The reason they put in a fake skyline is because at the moment what you'll see is mostly desert but by the time the tower is finished it would be surrounded by 200 more. Dubai marina and another development behind it have about 200 or more towers being built at the same time so it would be unrealistic to show an empty desert as a background By Same anonymous as above at February 18, 2006 11:33 AM5. As one of the architects of the proposed tower I would like to second the comments made by numbers 3 and 4 regarding the backround used for our proposal. Dubai is growing at such a vast speed that its impossible to have updated images of all the towers around ours. The "angered" person who commented earlier (no 2) would do better to make a constructive point about our design rather than trying to de-legitimise it by assuming its a fake By dosarchitects at February 19, 2006 12:40 PM6. I only wish it were fake. It looks like a giant mud dauber's nest. I could see it in some sci-fi giant bug movie, and this is where they all come from. Get a better renderer.

By unknown at March 18, 2006 7:09 PM10. The only city in the entire world where such "bizarre" or "far-out" (or insert any other dubious term here) towers can and more importantly WILL be built, is DUBAI. It might seem "fake" or strange to some now, but then how many must have said that about NY in the 1930s, Paris in the 1800s, Egypt 2500BC, etc etc. I'm just glad im a witness to the most amazing evolution in mankind's architectural skills since the skyscrapers of America. By Anonymous at March 19, 2006 10:49 AM11. Is this thing actually going to get built or is it just a concept design, for a competition or something?
