A developer in Azerbaijan plans to construct the world’s tallest building as part of a complex on a chain of 41 artificial islands in the Caspian Sea. Kana Guluzade, marketing director of the Avesta company, said Tuesday that along with hotels and apartment buildings, the complex would include a business center soaring to 3,645 feet, 27 percent taller than the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. Construction would start in late 2013.
