Dubai’s skyline hosts the tallest tower in the world—Burj Khalifa, which is a mixed-use skyscraper. That said, Burj Azizi is set to become the world’s second-tallest tower, the location of which is also the Emirate of Dubai. Continue reading this article to learn more details about this mega-tall building, its amenities, location, and more.
Burj Azizi: An Overview
Azizi Developments, a private real estate developer in the UAE, has initiated the construction of the world’s second-tallest tower—Burj Azizi. The construction of this tower has already begun, and it will be located on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai, next to other notable landmarks across from the World Trade Centre.
Burj Azizi, worth 1.5 billion USD, is expected to be completed within four years, in 2028. And right from the planning stages, Burj Azizi is meant to become a significant landmark of Dubai’s skyline and an attraction for tourists, locals, and residents.
It will feature luxurious and elegant apartments and penthouses, a 7-star hotel, a vertical shopping mall spread over many floors, exceptional F&B outlets, luxurious fine dining restaurants, and an observation deck to take in the stunning views of Dubai. As for its outer appearance, Burj Azizi will have a glazed exterior consisting of multiple rectangular forms.
Burj Azizi Height
Even though Burj Azizi is planned to become the world’s second-tallest tower, its exact height is not yet disclosed, as it is still awaiting approval from authorities. However, if it must become the second-tallest building as intended, the height will have to exceed that of some of the currently standing towers and others under construction.
● Burj Azizi Height: A Comparison
Since Burj Khalifa is keeping its status as the tallest building worldwide, Burj Azizi will not be taller than 828 metres. That said, its height must exceed 679 metres, which is the height of Malaysia’s Merdeka 118, the world’s second-tallest building today.
To keep the comparison within Dubai, Burj Azizi must be taller than the second-tallest and third-tallest towers in the Emirate, located in Dubai Marina. These towers are Marina 101 and Princess Tower, with their heights reaching 425 metres and 413 metres, respectively.
Burj Azizi must also be taller than the Franck Muller Aeternitas tower, which is currently under construction and will be completed in 2027. This tower is intended to become the tallest residential clock tower in the world, as it will stand at a 450-metre height in Dubai Marina as well.

Burj Azizi will be the legacy of Azizi Developments thanks to its significance to Dubai’s skyline in the future, becoming the second-tallest tower in the world. This legacy is meant to give back to the Emirate of Dubai, an international destination for all seekers of opportunities, comfort, luxury, and high-quality living.
