( CNN ) -- Ambitious plans to build a revolutionary 420-meter shape-shifting skyscraper in Dubai have been unveiled by architects . The 80-story Dynamic Tower , described as the `` world 's first building in motion , '' will also be the first skyscraper constructed from prefabricated units , according to a press statement released by New York-based architect David Fisher 's Dynamic Group . Each floor would be capable of rotating independently , powered by wind turbines fitted between each floor . `` You can adjust the shape the way you like every given moment , '' Fisher said . `` It 's not a piece of architecture somebody designed today and that 's it . It remains forever . It 's designed by life , shaped by time . '' Watch how the tower would spin and twist » . Apartments will sell for about $ 3,000 per square foot , making each unit range in price from about $ 4 million to $ 40 million . Work on the tower is to be completed by 2010 , according to Dynamic 's Web site . Fisher said that plans to build a second rotating skyscraper in Moscow were at an advanced stage and that the group intended to build a third tower in New York . He said developers and public officials in Canada , Europe and South Korea had also expressed interest in the project . But some have expressed skepticism . Fisher has never built a skyscraper before . He says he has teamed up with reputable architects and engineers in the United Kingdom and India . Although he has received a development license for construction in Dubai , in the United Arab Emirates , he has not disclosed the site of the building . The Moscow mayor 's office said that it was looking into the project and that a decision had not been made . Fisher has called prefabricated construction techniques the `` future of architecture '' and says they will radically transform 4,000-year-old `` brick-on-brick '' building methods . By using preconstructed parts , Fisher said each story could be built in just seven days , resulting in environmentally cleaner building methods . He said that just 600 people on an assembly site and 80 technicians on the construction site would be needed to build the tower , compared with about 2,000 workers for a traditional project of a comparable scale . `` It is unbelievable that real estate and construction , which is the leading sector of the world economy , is also the most primitive , '' Fisher is quoted as saying on Dynamic 's Web site . `` Most workers throughout the world still regularly use trowels that was first used by the Egyptians and then by the Romans . Buildings should not be different than any other product , and from now on they will be manufactured in a production facility . '' Dubai is experiencing a construction boom , with the Burj tower set to claim the title of the world 's tallest building when it is completed in 2009 . It is already home to the world 's largest mall , and despite being in the Middle East , it boasts the largest indoor snow park in the world .
