By May 2011, 22 floors had been completed. However, in August 2011, construction stopped after Trident International Holdings fell behind on payments for a US$20.4 million loan. , the tower still stands incomplete. If completed, the Pentominium is scheduled to become the second tallest building in Dubai after Burj Khalifa, and one of the tallest buildings in the world. ==Projected residential height== The Pentominium will be the tallest all-residential building in the world upon completion if construction resumes; it has the highest projected height of any residential building under construction.〔 It has been described as "one of the most architecturally significant projects in the city currently under construction" due to the "large number of offset cantilevered spa gardens and apartments down one side (create ) an imbalance for the building and, as a result, some fairly significant building sways which have to be corrected during construction." The project management contract was awarded to the project management firm Precipio. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pentominium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
