The Al Quds Endowment Tower is a dormant construction site of a 100-story building in Doha , the capital of Qatar . Construction began in 2009 and was originally scheduled to be completed in 2014, but was suspended for an indefinite period in April 2010.

With a height of 495 meters and 100 stories, the Al Quds Endowment Tower would be one of the tallest skyscrapers in the world. However, it will not be the tallest in the city and the country, as construction of the 510 meter high Qatar National Bank Tower has already started . However, if the discontinued construction work on the Doha Convention Center Tower is not continued, this could be exceeded again. Its construction began in 2008, but was discontinued in 2009. Should the work be continued, this would exceed the Al Quds Endowment Tower and the Qatar National Bank Tower at 551 meters. The company Private Engineering Office is building the tower. The tower should provide space for a hotel, apartments and offices. It is built in the Arabic architectural style. The design is clearly different from most other high-rises, whether in Dubai , the USA or China .
