Work halted on at least 50 towers, group says
Work on at least 50 skyscrapers around the world has stopped, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat said. Three of the 50 are in China, while six of the top 20 are in Latin America and eight are in the Middle East. The Dubai government has delayed the opening of the Burj Dubai until January. However, some building still continues in Europe, China and the Middle East.
