Shining Towers, often referred to as Dancing Towers, is in the Al Khalidiyah subcommunity. Shining Towers is a complex consisting of a residential tower with 33 stories of residential units and a commercial tower with 42 stories of office units. Each of these multi-story towers was designed to resemble a pair of dancers moving together without touching one another. They also each appear to lean both sideways and inward. Both these towers are linked by a three-storey podium and three basement levels. These provide retail and leisure facilities, and car parking for the residential units as well as for the office spaces.
Shining Towers was developed by Abu Dhabi Capital Group and designed by Hoops + Hilgendorff Building Solutions. Shining Towers was launched in 2008 and completed in 2012. The building's offices all have breathtaking views of the corniche and Abu Dhabi skyline making it the ideal setting for a modern workplace.
