[edit]The tower is located in the Downtown Opera District in the proximity of Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Mall and the Dubai Opera. The building topped out in 2021 by WSP Middle East, together with Emaar Development PJSC, features a 79-storey tower along with a podium and six levels of underground parking. The residential units are designed with vistas of famous city buildings and include various features and luxuries like marble flooring, soft lighting, and contemporary artwork.[5][6]
The tower offers luxurious living conditions, especially throughout the upper floor penthouses designed by B8 Architecture Dubai studio. On the ground floor of the first penthouse, there is a tall living room with a sculptural spiral staircase at its center, which represents the main visual attraction. Next to it, there is a wine cellar in the bar-lounge area. The spiral staircase gallery connects the two main areas on the first floor.[7]
