This mind-boggling skyscraper is set to break no fewer than five world records.

In Dubai, this amenity-packed tower is set to offer an astounding array of features, from a rainforest to a zip line. 

Once complete, a status currently slated for 2029, real estate developer Tiger Properties’ in-the-works Tiger Sky Tower will feature Sky, the highest restaurant in the world; the highest infinity pool in the world; a zip line built at 1,467-feet up (taller than the Empire State Building) that glides through the highest rainforest in a residential building. Also record-breaking: a penthouse 1,414 feet above ground, making it the highest-perched of its kind in the world.

Of course, there’s also a state-of-the-art gym, a spa, barbecue areas, a jogging track and a podium pool spread over its 122 floors, according to Kennedy News and Media. That said, the views through the windows seemingly extend into infinity.

Located in the heart of downtown Dubai, the $1 billion high-rise will house 18 penthouses total. 

Apartments will start at less than $700,000. 

Tiger Sky Tower is far from Tiger Properties’ first project. The developer has constructed more than 270 buildings, including Dubai’s 28-story Jade Tower, the 34-story Red Square Tower and the 40-story Volga Tower.

“We not only give people the chance to live in luxury, but give them the chance to enjoy some adventure too,” said Tiger Group CEO Amer Waleed Al Zoubi, reflecting on the tower’s unique amenities. “How many people can boast they live in the clouds with their very own rainforest and a rollercoaster to zoom about in?”

The project, specifically the rainforest, he added, shows “a commitment to harmonizing with nature, preserving biodiversity and fostering sustainable growth” and serves as a “symbol of our responsibility to protect and nurture our planet’s most precious ecosystems.”
