History

Construction began in 2007, with completion initially scheduled for 2014. The building remained incomplete after the original developer - Sheffield Holdings Limited - ran out of capital. The tower is completed at 97% as of September 2024.[2][3][4][5][6] The building was designed by National Engineering Bureau and construction was by Turkish conglomerate TAV Construction.[7]

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.[8] 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.[9] The 101st floor of the skyscraper features a club lounge, restaurant and a Rock Shop merchandise store.[10]
