Burj Dubai & 2008/9 International Financial Crisis

[edit]

Kingdom Tower and covid

[edit]

Jeddah Tower started in 2013 and 10 years later is stalled, at first from the 2019 Saudi purge, but then complications from covid, which was also a major downturn for 2020 to 2021. B137 (talk) 09:21, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
