UAE-based Al Habtoor Group has achieved a major construction milestone at Al Habtoor Tower, reaching its highest structural point at 86 floors, marking the official topping-out of what is set to become the world’s largest residential building.

This milestone represents a defining moment in the tower’s construction journey, reflecting exceptional progress delivered at pace, without compromise on quality. It also signals the transition into the final phase of development.

Located in the heart of Al Habtoor City on Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Habtoor Tower is one of the most ambitious residential developments in Dubai, combining scale, architectural precision, and world-class construction standards.

The tower comprises a total of 1,740 residential units, with the group confirming that the handover will be phased, starting with over 1,300 apartments scheduled for delivery this summer. 

As construction enters its final stages, works are now focused on façade completion, interior finishes, and the delivery of premium amenities that define the tower’s lifestyle offering.

Set within the fully integrated Al Habtoor City, residents will benefit from direct access to three luxury hotels, La Perle – Dubai and the region’s only permanent aqua theatre – and a vibrant boulevard offering world-class dining, retail and entertainment. 

In another development, Al Habtoor announced a landmark investment worth over AED5 billion ($1.36 billion) in Dubai’s real estate sector, underlining its confidence in the emirate’s investment outlook.

The investment will fund the development of a new commercial tower in Al Habtoor City, the group’s flagship mixed-use destination.
