ADGM Building (Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange)
A glass hall the size of a football pitch, lifted 27 metres into the air on four granite piers above a circular pool.
Abu Dhabi
Al Maryah Island Waterfront Promenade
A financial district with a waterside walk around its edge — planned to ring the whole island at 5.4 kilometres.
Aldar Headquarters (The Coin Building)
A 121-metre glass disc standing on its edge — the Middle East's first circular skyscraper, and its most-photographed silhouette.
Capital Gate (The Leaning Tower of Abu Dhabi)
An 18-degree lean, four times Pisa's — a skyscraper built deliberately off-balance and held there by steel.
