Marina 101 is a skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, located in the Dubai Marina district. Standing 101 stories high and 425 m (1,394 ft) tall, it is the second tallest building in the United Arab Emirates, behind only the Burj Khalifa. As of 2022, Marina 101 is also the 32nd-tallest building in the world.
Construction began in 2007, with completion initially scheduled for 2014. The building remains incomplete after the original developer - Sheffield Holdings Limited - ran out of capital.[2][3][4][5] The building was designed by National Engineering Bureau and construction was by Turkish conglomerate TAV Construction.[6]
The first 33 floors of the skyscraper are designed to host a 5-star Hard Rock hotel with 281 rooms, while the floors from 34 to 100 have residential apartments.[7] Apart from five restaurants in the hotel tower, there are 252 one-bedroom, 204 two-bedroom, and 42 three-bedroom apartments with 6 duplex penthouses from the 97th to the 100th floor.[8] The 101st floor of the skyscraper features a club lounge, restaurant and a Rock Shop merchandise store.[9]
