Prince al-Walid bin Talal is currently planning to build a tower in a new city near the Red Sea town of Jeddah that is literally a mile high. At 5,250 ft. and a cost of approximately $10 million, it will double the size of any competitors.

No tower current or under construction will exceed 2.300 ft. Construction workers will be lifted by helicopter to the top. This project sounds very dangerous!
