What a mess. I was disapointed once I had clicked I presumed we were about to see a thing of great beauty.

The massive car park at the start should have given it away tbh :D

It looks like a shitty half built office block, who on earth would want to live there?

Fucking hell.

$630 million buys ALOT in India as well because the average wage for construction workers and labour is so low. I was expecting something stunning and instead got something that is uglier than the Hilton Tower in Manchester.

in abject poverty and this fucknut want's to rub it into their

That tower in Manchester is 47 stories, built in a modern western city where building costs are alot higher and yet it cost £160 million or so. His tower must be full of gold plated door knobs and bog seats. :D

Hmh. While i think the hilton tower looks mighty nice(i like that style, cyberpunk'ish, just needs neons etc), that first building is very poor.

I dislike that buildings always go expensive=higher, i'd like to see a more down to earth(not that way) building, with similar budget.

Wider not taller.

Yeah, read what is inside the thing, it's crazy.

I'd like to see some more pics of it, the one in the article is too far to tell what it really looks like.

and Job. lol, no.

Strange choice of dwelling....but I suppose if you're a multi-billionaire you can afford to be somewhat eccentric. GL to him

The surrounding buildings look just as nasty. Spend all that money to live in a shitty looking town

Saw it in the build stage and thought it looked ugly then, not really sure I would want something like that where it currently is either.

It still looks shit. Like one of those horrible 1970s/80s town buildings you wish they would knock down. Ie Milton Keynes.

I kinda like it, looks like a giant half-way done Jenga game.
