 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   delete. The one contributor who has looked at this in depth has concluded that the two topics are not identical and both fail WP:GNG. Nobody has made a substantial argument to the contrary. So this one is deleted, but the other would need a separate discussion as it has not received an AfD tag.

 * Redirect to 1 Park Avenue. Ha  dg  er  00:39, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge the other into this one. Bearian (talk) 18:40, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete both. I don't think these are the same, even though they have the same name.
 * See the map here. It is in a different place from the map here. Or so it would seem if you compare these locations using Google Maps. It seems these are quite close to each other, but not in the same spot.
 * Now, having said this, One Park Avenue in Dubai has not attracted significant coverage in secondary, reliable sources. A news search turns up nothing. A web search gives this article, which mentions the project in passing near the end (this, however, seems to be the building described in the 1 Park Avenue article). There's another very similar article here. I find no other coverage of "One Park Avenue" in Dubai in reliable sources; I don't judge forums at skyscrapercity or the emporis or other technical pages to be sufficient to establish notability. These don't go beyond listings of data, or are unreliable as forum posts. The project has been proposed, but there's been no indication that it's anywhere near getting off the ground four years later. It may have been an ephemeral proposal that never was covered in a significant way because it didn't go forward.
 * Turning to 1 Park Avenue for a moment. There's a passing mention in this article, but it now sounds like it's describing the same building as One Park Avenue. This is the full extent of the reliable-source coverage I can find of the building. The rest is emporis, skyscrapercity and similar, as discussed above. Neither building passes the WP:GNG requirements, as neither appears to have progressed beyond the planning stages and never attracted significant coverage. --Batard0 (talk) 18:50, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Merge with 1 Park Avenue. Referred to as "1 Park Avenue" by its architect Smith & Gordon Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture. Faustus37 (talk)
