Bidding has started for the important project management role for the ‘North Pole’ central business district that will accompany Foster + Partners’ design for a 2-kilometer (appx. 1.2-mile) megatall tower—the world’s tallest—in Riyadh. According to Global Construction Review, likely bidders include heavyweights Aecom, Bechtel, Jacobs, Parsons, Mace, and Turner Construction (the latter having just been announced for the same role in the shorter Jeddah Tower—to which it is considered a competitor).

The outlet also reported that the project is to be named ‘Rise Tower’ and located near King Khalid International Airport, which was also master planned by Foster + Partners.
