I remember when the Burj Khalifa was going up. It looked very similar to this, with the huge concrete wings, in the early stages of construction. I can't imagine working in that heat.

I wonder how many construction workers are employed in this project.

You can also follow the construction work live by checking out the project webcams! http://www.jec.sa/en/3_53/portal/Live_Cam_Feed/
