Jeddah Tower Nears Completion

- Wikipedia reports the tower reached 113 floors as of 2 September 2026, after passing the 100th floor by May 2026[2]
- Construction halted in January 2018 with about a third complete, a new request for proposals followed in September 2023 and work restarted in January 2025[2][3]
- The architects (Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill) said in August 2025 that the schedule reflects August 2028 completion, with the core at level 69 and about 50% of the concrete placed; Wikipedia says completion could come as early as 2028[2][3]
- The tower is to house a Four Seasons hotel, offices, luxury condominiums and the world's highest observation deck (a sky terrace on the 157th level per Newsweek)[2][3]
- Jeddah Economic City is a roughly $20 billion project (at least SR75 billion)[2][3]
