glimpse33: My sister, as at the time this was built, dubai could not boast of a 3 storey building. You may express reservations about why we haven't topped that record today. I strongly do. However, I will humbly reject your ridicule of this legacy called Cocoa House- The first Skyscraper in Tropical Africa. |

glimpse33: Its either you don't know what to type or you just don't even know what you are doing on the thread Cocoa house in her days, was the first in this part of the world. You may talk of the outdated architectural design, fine. But that was the first & the only there was here as of late 50s. I wonder if the best building in your village in 2005 still remains the best today in terms of architecture. So if a 24-storey building of late 1950s is not a skyscraper to you relative to what was obtainable as of then, then I don't know what else to say. 1 Like |
