DAMAC Residenze, formerly named DAMAC Heights and Ocean Heights 2, is an 85-storey, 335 m (1,099 ft), supertall skyscraper in Dubai Marina, Dubai.[2] It is the second supertall project by DAMAC Properties, the first being Ocean Heights, which is also located in Dubai Marina. The building overlooks the Palm Jumeirah.

As of 2022, DAMAC Residenze is the 13th-tallest building in Dubai and the 12th-tallest residential building in the world.

Architecture and design

Damac Residenze is located in the upper part of the marina, the most populated district of Dubai Marina containing nine skyscrapers and about 10 between 200m and 300m. The design incorporates elements that increase the field of view, giving the impression of a larger space between the DAMAC and the other towers. According to the architects Aedas, the curvature of the tower is crucial to provide views for the largest number of apartments possible.

The tower was planned to be 420 m (1,378 ft) high, but its height was reduced to 335 m (1,099 ft) in February 2013.[4]

History

In February 2013, the foundation work of DAMAC Residenze was in progress, while the piling had already been completed.[5][1]
