What each third of the tower asks
A high floor in a 17-storey building is a range, not a word.
| Band | Floors | Advertised | Asking AED/sqft |
|---|---|---|---|
| high | 12–17 | 39 | 1,295 |
| mid | 7–11 | 22 | 1,283 |
| low | 1–6 | 59 | 1,256 |
What the register recorded, month by month
Median registered price per square foot, by the month the sale was registered. A month with no sale is absent rather than zero — a building sells a handful of flats a year, and a line drawn to the axis on a quiet month reads as a collapse.
