Burj Khalifa

This is a really awesome building. I try not to be too impressed by these ostentatious displays, but the Petrona Towers in Kuala Lumpur were breathtaking, and the Burj Khalifa is even more so. I can't wait until they open up the public viewing platform again. I know that it's an optical illusion, but when you stand close to it and look straight up, it seems to extend right over top of you. It really truly is big. And, when you think of all the steel and glass and other stuff that went into building it, it is amazing.
