The Jumeirah Lake Towers (( _ar. ابراج بحيرة الجميرا) is a huge development in Dubai, United Arab Emirates which consists of a 87 towers being constructed along the edges of four artificial lakes (Lake Almas West, Lake Almas East, Lake Elucio, and Lake Allure). The lakes (which are about 3 metres deep) will be completely filled by September 2008. [ [http://www.jumeirahlaketowers.ae/jlt_launch/factsheet.aspx Jumeirah Lake Towers Fact Sheet] ] The total area covered by the lakes, waterways and landscaping will be 730,000 square metres. The towers will range from having 34 floors to having 65. The tallest tower and the centerpiece of the entire complex is Almas Tower which will be situated on its own island between Lake Almas West and Lake Almas East. All residential towers will be placed in clusters of three. This therefore makes the areas easier to navigate when mail is distributed.

The completion of Saba Tower in 2006 marked the first tower to be completed in Jumeirah Lake Towers. The final tower is expected to be completed in 2008. The majority of construction will take place in 2007.

One tower, Pacific Tower, was proposed as part of the plan however the plot of land on which it was to be built, was bought out by another company and will become plot for Vue De Lac Tower. Fourteen towers are still awaiting approval.

Fire

On January 18 2007, two workers were killed and at least 40 injured (four seriously) when a fire broke out in the under construction Fortune Tower. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6274981.stm Workers die in Dubai tower fire] - BBC News - Obtained on January 18, 2007.] The Fortune Tower was delayed for several months, but is expected to be completed by the end of 2007.

Clusters

Seven clusters have been named as of June 2006. They all contain three towers. Some clusters have towers with different names however, this is due to the developer. There maybe two or more developers on one cluster.
