The Emirates Towers (Template:Langx) is a building complex in Dubai that contains the Emirates Office Tower and Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel, which are connected by a Script error: No such module "convert". two-story retail complex known as "The Boulevard". The building is owned by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum.[1] The two towers, which rise to Script error: No such module "convert". tall to the tip and Script error: No such module "convert". high of occupied space, respectively, stand as the 51st[2] tallest buildings in the world and 11th tallest in Dubai.[3] The Emirates Towers complex is located on the Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and is a symbol of the city of Dubai. The Emirates Office Tower was constructed by the construction wing of Al Ghurair Investment group[4] and the Emirates Hotel Tower was built by Ssangyong and BESIX subsidiary Six Construct.[5] The hotel has 400 rooms. A curiosity of the design is that the towers have a similar number of floors; the taller office tower actually contains 56 floors above ground, while the hotel tower contains 54 floors. This is because the individual floor heights of the office tower are greater than that of the hotel. The building also contains 17 elevators inside. The grounds of these towers are so vast that one of the most popular features of the Emirates Towers are peacocks belonging to the nearby Zabeel Palace that are left to roam around.[6]
