High-rise living often comes at a high price, and apartments in India’s World One Tower are no exception.
But as well as having the luxury of a Giorgio Armani designed property, investors will also be able to say they own a piece of the world’s tallest residential block which is set to reach 1,450 feet.
The skyscraper is currently under construction by Indian developer Lodha in Mumbai, and will feature 300 three and four-bedroom homes across 117 floors with completion due next year.
The apartments go on sale this week in London through Wetherell Estates, with prices starting at £1.4m (Dh7.9m), according to The Telegraph.
The Lodha group is targeting wealthy Indians in the capital, who account for 25 per cent of homebuyers in the super-rich Mayfair area.
New York’s 432 Park Avenue is currently the world’s tallest residential tower at 1,398ft, followed by the Princess Tower in Dubai.
World One Tower is part of the scheme featuring three towers which Lodha says are “uniquely curvilinear in shape”.
“World One, the world’s tallest residential tower, World View and World Crest, stand as a powerful symbol of Mumbai’s unfettered aspirations and unstoppable drive,” the developer says on its website.

Trump has so far secured 295 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press, exceeding the 270 needed to win. Only Nevada and Arizona remain to be called, and both swing states are leaning Republican. Trump swept all five remaining swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, sealing his path to victory and giving him a strong mandate.
Popular Vote Tally
The count is ongoing, but Trump currently leads with nearly 51 per cent of the popular vote to Harris’s 47.6 per cent. Trump has over 72.2 million votes, while Harris trails with approximately 67.4 million.
