Azerbaijan Tower - The World's Tallest Building: MEGAPROJECTS

Azerbaijan’s $100 billion Khazar Islands is the perfect example of everything that’s still wrong with the world’s power structure. It will contain the creatively named Azerbaijan Tower--which will be the world’s tallest building, about 800 feet taller than the current leader, the Burj Khalifa. It’ll be surrounded by 55 artificial islands built in the Caspian Sea from chunks of earth ripped out of a nearby mountain, which - in the end - will be completely destroyed.
