The Dubai World Trade Centre Residence is a 38-floor tower in
the Dubai International Convention Centre in Dubai, United Arab
Emirates. Opened in 2008, World Trade Centre Residence is managed by
Jumeirah Living.[1] Jumeirah Living offers a mix of one to four
bedroom serviced apartments within the residence for short, mid-term
and extended stays.[2] The tower has a total structural height of
158 m (518 ft). The building is a five-star residential
tower[3] alongside the Dubai World Trade Centre, Dubai's first
high-rise building. Construction of the foundation began in August
2005 and by early 2006, the building was rising.[4] The building
sits on the site of the old World Trade Centre Hotel.[3] The
demolition of the World Trade Centre Hotel, which took place on 1
April 2005, was the second time a building in Dubai was demolished.
