The world's first moving building, an 80-storey tower with revolving floors giving a shifting shape, will be built in Dubai, its architect says.

The Dynamic Tower design is made up of 80 pre-fabricated apartments which will spin independently of one another.

80 apartments to get back costs of building a 420m skyscraper and some profit. Wonder if they'll be in my price range....

The apartments, which will take between one and three hours to make a complete rotation, will cost from $3.7m to $36m.

I meant by the time they are built whether they will be in my price range.
