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.[5]
