Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to agree with you Jamal (mark this day in history!!) - it's probably one of the older landmarks in Dubai, and was one of the first images I remember of Dubai from 20 years ago watching the golf on the TV.

I suppose another icon is the egg-crate tower (World Trade Centre??). I can never remember it's real name!! :lol:

Hmm, I find it unlikely that they'll knock down WTC - I was under the impression that its like a lasting legacy of the previous Sheikh's rein??

And who could forget Modesh?!?!? :lol:

"Wind Towers" could be another. FYI, its those things you see on Dubai Creek in that fishing village and in Madinat Jumierah. They are used to ventilate the stone houses in this part of the world.
