This is a photo of a massive building being built in Dubai - compare it to the palm trees below! Have a guess what it is - you'll never guess! I'll post a photo of the inside of the building and you'll be amazed!

Ok before you post the reveal, I have a question. Is this buidling "done" as far as length and extensions etc? As that could greatly change it's look and assumed purpose. I have a few ideas but it's so hard to tell from an unfinished photo. It reminds me of a launch pad or runway??? Or possibly a water slide?? LOL Well no I guess you'd have to be a giant to need a water slide that big lol. Some aeronautic?
I love a good puzzle!! :yikes:
