Burj Almasa (formerly recognized as the Diamond Tower) is a planned 94-story, 432-metre (1,417 ft) supertall skyscraper in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

The tower is designed primarily for residential use. When completed, it is anticipated to be Saudi Arabia's second-tallest building as well as one of the tallest residential buildings globally.^[1] Upon completion, Burj Almasa will uniquely twist a full 360 degrees along its height.

The initial 12 floors will accommodate parking facilitated close to each residence, with vehicles being transported via specially constructed ramps. The top level of the tower will feature three upscale restaurants.
