The Oblisco Capitale is a megatall skyscraper currently approved in the New Administrative Capital of the Republic of Egypt. Announced in 2018 as part of the Egypt Vision 2030, the tower aims to surpass the height of the Burj Khalifa, targeting a proposed height of 1000 meters (1 kilometer).[1][2]

Designed by the Egyptian architectural firm IDIA, based in Giza, the skyscraper is planned to resemble a Pharaonic obelisk, with an integrated water channel that symbolizes the Nile River. The project encompasses 210 floors and is planned to be a mixed-use complex, including amenities such as residential units, hotel apartments, shops, and restaurants.[3][4]
