Burj Al Arab Hotel
Dubai, UAE
This iconic 7-Star hotel, which formed part of the Dubai Chicago Beach development project including the Jumeirah Beach Hotel and the Wild Waddy Water Park, was completed in the early 2000s. The Burj Al Arab Hotel has 56 floors but all the rooms have two levels, so onlookers are always surprised that this building, which was the tallest hotel in the world upon completion, appears to have only 28 storeys. Daniel Alcon was part of a team employed by the Client Office of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum to negotiate and settle contractor claims.
London 2012 Olympic Stadium London, UK
