Construction to Begin On World's Largest Cube Skyscraper in Riyadh
A cube-shaped skyscraper in Riyadh will become the world's largest building. The Mukaab is part of New Murabba, a project to enhance the city and attract global attention.
Saudi Arabia is preparing to begin construction on a cube-shaped skyscraper known as the Mukaab, which will measure 400 metres on each side, making it the largest building in the world upon completion.
This project is part of the New Murabba initiative which intends to transform Riyadh into a significant cultural and entertainment hub.
Excavation for the Mukaab has already cleared over 10 million cubic metres of earth. The development will include various amenities such as entertainment venues, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and a 45,000-seat stadium.
New Murabba is designed to host 18 communities for over 400,000 residents, with the first phase expected to be completed by 2030, coinciding with Saudi Arabia’s hosting of Expo 2030.
The Mukaab will feature innovative design elements, including the world’s first fully-enclosed skyscraper and a dome displaying holographic images. This unique feature allows guests to experience various global locations within the building.
Still, as Saudi Arabia continues to develop its construction sector, it faces challenges like supply chain issues, costs, and the need for skilled labour. Despite these hurdles, the Mukaab is expected to contribute to the kingdom's goals for economic diversification and tourism enhancement.
