Majdoul Tower

A very unusually shaped building, which is now much further along than it looks here. I think I’ll have to go back and try to get a shot from somewhere other than the car!

I was way too close to get a good capture, but I thought the artist's rendering of the finished structure was interesting.

That is really a unique structure. I would think it creates a lot of unusable space to accommodate those irregular walls. You did a great job of showing the interior structure. Voted.

I'm thinking the architecture may be copied from the building in Malmo, Sweden called the Turning Torso. Here's a photo of it:http://www.pbase.com/deutsch/image/135139947
