Duja Tower, 53-floor skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Duja Tower is a 53-floor skyscraper in Dubai's business district featuring a contemporary glass and steel facade. The building provides commercial and office spaces distributed across its height, served by modern elevators.

Construction of Duja Tower began in 2009 and was completed in 2017, developed by Nasser Lootah Real Estate. ZAS Architects and National Engineering Bureau designed the building, with structural design by Port Saeed Engineering. On the evening of 20 February 2020, a fire broke out on the upper cladding; residents were evacuated to nearby buildings and allowed back on 22 February. No injuries were reported.

The tower's name, Duja, is Arabic for "dark night", a contrast with its blue-green glass shaft. The building is mixed-use, combining residential and commercial floors, and the "Sheraton" lettering mounted near the top of the shaft marks the hotel housed inside. Residents were evacuated to neighbouring buildings during the February 2020 cladding fire and allowed back two days later.

The building is easily accessible from street level with clear entrance areas and directional signage throughout. Visitors should note this is primarily a commercial facility, so some spaces may have restricted access during business hours.

The tower's cladding drew comparisons to Grenfell Tower after a fire on the upper floors on the evening of 20 February 2020. Residents were evacuated to nearby buildings, no injuries were reported, and they were allowed back on 22 February 2020.
