Abandoned - Jeddah Tower

Climbing high into the Saudi Arabian skies was a tower like no other. At 1km high and surpassing the world’s already tallest tower, the Burj Khalifa, this mega was truly enormous. Originally named the Kingdom Tower and planned to be the centrepiece of the sparkling Jeddah Economic City. However things didn’t go to plan and today I’m going to find out why the worlds newest, modern skyscraper never made it past the 50th floor and why it sits abandoned in an empty plot of land, in the desert.
