Dubai's Former 'Big Ben' Tower Is Sold Out, Says Developer

(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) AHS Tower, formerly known as the“Big Ben” tower, has sold out, generating more than $700 million (Dh2.57 billion) in revenue for the developer AHS Properties.

Located on Sheikh Zayed Road, the 69-storey tower will add Grade A commercial space to meet growing demand for top-end office space in the city.

The tower was previously nicknamed 'Big Ben' as it mirrored London's famous clock tower. Now named AHS Tower, the 69-floor building is over 200 metres tall but will not have the clock.

The clock was removed from the tower as the developer redesigned the facade to give the building a new identity.

AHS Properties bought the building from the Commercial Bank of Dubai in July 2025 for approximately $120 million (Dh440.4 million), Abbas Sajwani, founder and CEO of AHS Group, told Khaleej Times earlier.

Demand for office and commercial spaces is growing exceptionally across Dubai as more than 250,000 new companies were established in 2025, bringing the total number of operating companies to 1.4 million, a growth of 119 per cent.

“Offices in the UAE are transforming into dynamic hubs for meaningful workplace experiences. We have evolved our focus to explicitly place human health at the centre of the conception, design, construction, and operation of our developments,” said Sajwani.

“We are embracing a multidimensional concept of wellness and intentionally tapping into the $584 billion wellness-driven real estate movement, which is forecast to double to $1.1 trillion by 2029,” added Abbas Sajwani.
