There will be 80 floors in this futuristic rotating tower with each floor having the capability to move independently or in unison with the other floors. Pretty wild huh? The tower will be built over the next two years in Dubai. The concept is designed by Italian architect David Fisher. I must add Fisher has never built a skyscraper. A quote from
World Architecture News:
"Rotating Tower is the Italian architect’s first skyscraper design but he is confident that he will be able to pull off the concept, first listing his experience in the architecture world and then by stating: “I did not design skyscrapers but I feel completely ready to do so.”
Ok, can we just be honest? His FIRST skyscraper? Seriously??? Seriously.
In honor of Lego's 50th anniversary, thousands of children were employed to beat the old record and build the world's tallest Lego tower ever! About 3,000 children assembled nearly 500,000 Lego pieces to build the tower. The tower was built in Vienna and beat the old record by 7 inches. The completed tower used guy wires to withstand the wind and stands nearly 96.7 feet tall.
