skyscraper that revolves once an hour


new type of swirling skyscraper is set to change city skylines forever. An Italian architect has revealed his ambitious plans to create 'dynamic towers', in which each floor fully rotates up to once an hour.
The first two innovative buildings will be built in Dubai and Moscow by the end of 2010, although the 80-floor Dubai tower is still awaiting planning permission.The brainchild behind the operation is David Fisher, owner of the Rotating Tower Technology Company. He said he was inspired to create the perpetual motion skyscrapers after soaking in the view from a friend's apartment in Manhattan.The £355million Dubai tower will be constructed by Mr Fisher's British company and rely on pre-sales for at least part of the costs.
However, investors may pause when they discover that Mr Fisher has never built a skyscraper before. Previously he has created marble bathroom suites for hotels.
