From 7PM til midnight - on the hour, every hour - there will be a 5 minute light show that can be seen from all over Kuwait!
The Al Hamra Tower is a topped out skyscraper in downtown Kuwait City, Kuwait. Designed by architectural firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, the tower is the tallest building in Kuwait on completion in 2011 at 412.6 m (1,354 ft).[1] It will also be the tallest sculpted tower in the world.
The tower will include 195,000 m2 (2,100,000 sq ft) of commercial and office space. The building will connect to a five-story retail mall which totals 23,000 m2 (250,000 sq ft) of retail space and will include an integrated theater complex and an 11-story carpark. The tower itself is built on an 18,000 m2 (190,000 sq ft) construction site.
The Al Hamra Tower will have over 70 floors of office space, a rooftop restaurant and a spa. The shopping center will include a 10-screen cinema complex which will also have IMAX theaters. Turner Construction is in charge of the tower's construction.
UPDATE- Kuweight 64 took a few good pics of the show, here's a fab one that I 'borrowed' :OD
