"Exterior construction completed: 14 July 2011" It's "finished" as a wasteful potemkin monument - it's not an embarassing concrete shell anymore. It's not finished in the usefully occupied building sense, which would probably be even more wasteful. Operation costs will be stupid for little gain. IMO that's how Jeddah will eventually go, the prince will find the change to finish the tower. It'll look really cool while bleeding money.
