Jumeirah Lake Towers

Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) is a community set along the Gulf Coast where you can live, work and play. The area is built up with 87 towers consisting of apartments, offices and retail outlets, located around three lakes and a park area of 55,000 sq. m (590,000 sq. ft). The water bodies and landscaped areas of JLT cover a total of 730,000 sq. m (7,900,000 sq. ft). In total 80 towers are located around the lakes, and 7 are on the waterfront overlooking the island of Palm Jumeirah. The buildings range in height from 35 m to 45 m.

The tallest central structure of the community is Almas Tower which has 66 floors. The first tower in the JLT development was built in 2006, and by 2011 the complex was 80% complete. The project continues to evolve, albeit at a slower pace. The developer DMCC has recently announced a plan to create the tallest commercial tower in the world, the Burj 2020.
