make history on Saturday, December 31 by being bthe first skyscraper to hold a
live countdown of the new year
The tower, which is the tallest building in
Nairobi, will host the live countdown while having 2017 colorfully inscribed on
it.
Lighting is also expected to be an
out-of-the-world experience as the entire 33 storeys are expected to be well
and adequately lit.
The building’s CEO confirmed the rare
