THE Skyscraper

I just read Architectural Record's August issue's CEU, "Beyond Limits." It was a compelling article about the newest tallest skyscraper in the world, which by the way, is only about a HALF MILE TALL!! Pretty intense! Not to mention, it's in a desert. How crazy is that? Anyway, it an incredibly intriguing article, so I thought I'd plug it here. Also this graphic is helpful in recognizing this impressive feat.
