Anara Tower was a proposed supertall skyscraper in Dubai. It was slated to be one of Dubai's tallest buildings,[3] and would have been 600 m (1,968 ft) tall with 135 floors.[4] It was designed to look like a massive wind turbine.[5] It was supposed to be a mixed use tower with offices, retail spaces, apartments, and an art gallery.[6] Anara Tower would have incorporated sky gardens every 27 floors and would have contained a luxury restaurant.[2] If built it was expected to be an energy efficient tower by installing renewable sources of energy and incorporating water efficiency strategies.
