The Ahmed Abdul Rahim Al Attar Tower is a supertall residential skyscraper that is topped out in 2010 along Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Construction was stopped between November 2006[3] and May 2007[4] because the developer fired the main contractor (Al Fara'a Contracting), however it has now resumed construction with Naresco Contracting Co as the main contractor.[5] The tower will rise to 342 meters (1122 feet) and have 76 floors when it is completed.[6]
