Qatar National Bank Tower is a supertall skyscraper to be built in Doha, Qatar, but its construction was cancelled on November 25, 2015. The tower was planned to be 510 m (1,673 ft) tall and will have 101 floors. When completed, it should have become the tallest building in Qatar, and one of the tallest buildings in the world. The tower should have become the second tallest all-office building in the world after One World Trade Center in New York City, surpassing the Taipei 101. It is designed by Peddle Thorp Architects. Construction was on-hold since May 2010.
The preferred contractor for the construction of the building was the Australian company Grocon.[4]
