Port Tower Complex
Karachi, Pakistan (1476ft - 450M)
(Project Approved)
What's a developing country, awash with billions in international aid/grants to do these days? Invest in education? Health care? Infrastructure? Sustainability? Alternative energy? Um, not quite, try...Spending billions to project a false sense of affluence...high five. The Port Tower Complex would be 2nd tallest building in the world, after the "Burj Dubai". The irony of course is that it won't be built by a Pakistani developer...nor will many citizens of the country be allowed inside, nonetheless Pakistanis will be proud.
