The Burj-Dubai, located in Dubai City, UAE, is under construction. It will be the world's tallest building, by far, when completed. In fact, it's already the world's tallest building anyway, and it's only about 50% completed.

Keep in mind those buildings next to it are between 30-45 stories, which is about the size of the tallest buildings in San Francisco.

The building itself will contain hotels, shops, restaurants, apartments, malls, theaters, and almost anything else you can imagine will probably go in it. It's an incredible feat, with the final height of the building being over a half a mile high. The original plan called for one mile high, but that's just impossible right now.
