The Jeddah Tower project in Saudi Arabia has reached a major construction milestone as it advances toward becoming the world’s tallest building.
The $1.2 billion mega tall development in Jeddah Economic City has now surpassed 102 floors, with rapid vertical progress recorded in 2026. Furthermore, the structure continues climbing toward its final planned height of more than 1,000 meters. Meanwhile, construction teams maintain steady momentum across core and superstructure works. Consequently, the project is once again positioning itself at the center of global skyscraper engineering attention.
Jeddah Tower Project construction hits 102 floors milestone
The Jeddah Tower project has officially passed 102 floors, marking one of its most significant milestones to date. Additionally, the tower is now progressing toward its planned 157 floors. Meanwhile, only a small number of buildings worldwide have crossed the 100-floor mark, placing it in an elite global category.
The development is led by Jeddah Economic Company, which oversees execution within Jeddah Economic City. Moreover, the architectural design is handled by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, a firm known for supertall skyscraper expertise. Consequently, the project maintains strong technical direction despite earlier delays. More
