Burj Dubai One Kilometre High Property Crash White Elephant?

The tower already rises 780 meters high into the sky (160 floors), but its final height will not be exposed until the construction is completed. The tower may reportedly reach the height of one kilometer by September.
A special construction was designed to guarantee the stability of the tower: each level of the tower is dislocated clockwise from the axis.
Burj Dubai will house a luxury hotel and Armani apartments. They will take a part of the building from the 9 th to the 16 th floor. Conventional apartments will be made from the 16 th to the 120 th floor. The cost of Burj Dubai apartments (from 60 to 85 square meters) starts from $3.3 million.
The office part of the tower begins on the 120 th floor. About 6,700 m2 of office space will be available at $114 million.
Nearly all offices in the tower have already been sold, although the 127 th and the 135 th floors are still vacant.
The first metro line of Dubai (70 stations) will be launched simultaneously with the skyscraper.
