The Pentominium is a 122-storey, 517 m (1,696 ft) supertall skyscraper currently under construction in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Construction on the tower was halted in August 2011.[1] It was designed by Andrew Bromberg of architects Aedas[6][7] and funded by Trident International Holdings. The AED 1.46 billion (US$400 million) construction contract was awarded to Arabian Construction Company (ACC).[8]
Construction started on 26 July 2008. Before construction stopped, the building was expected to be completed in 2013.[5] By May 2011, 22 floors had been completed. However, in August 2011, construction stopped after Trident International Holdings fell behind on payments for a US$20.4 million loan following the Great Recession.[9]
After being abandoned for 12 years, in December 2023, Select Group acquired the long-stalled Pentominium Tower. The Pentominium was completely redesigned from the ground up by Woods Bagot,[10] utilizing the already built structure into the new design. In March 2024, the tower was rebranded and renamed Six Senses Residences Dubai Marina.[11]
Upon its completion, Six Senses Residences Dubai Marina will have 122 stories and will be 517 m / 1,696 ft tall making it the tallest building in the Dubai Marina and potentially the tallest residential building in the world.[12] Construction restarted in 2024.[13] It is expected to be completed by 2028.[14]
