12. Dubai Waterfront
- As a project being undertaken on a massive scale, the Dubai Waterfront is set to create a new home for residential and commercial freehold, offering over 250 planned communities.
- Bigger than Beirut and Manhattan, this project from leading Dubai developer Nakheel follows on from other impressive shoreline developments such as the Palm Jumeirah and Palm Jebel Ali, as well as the exclusive World Islands.
- This crescent shaped development will provide a harbour for boats, and a mixture of projects that include resorts, commercial, residential and the associated facilities.
- With the planned construction of Al Burj, due to be one of the tallest buildings in the world, Dubai Waterfront will be creating a new hub for business, entertainment and living; a new downtown and an expansion of Dubai.
- Located just beyond the Palm Jebel Ali, Dubai Waterfront is the master plan of Nakheel’s development of the Dubai coastline, increasing it several fold and stretching this growing city to the largest possible size.
- The city of Dubai will no longer be focused in one area but spread out between Jebel Ali and the Creek.
- The overall development has been divided into ten different sub-projects: Al Ras, the Corniche, The Riviera, The Palm Boulevard, Madinat Al Arab, The Peninsula, Uptown, Downtown, Boulevard and The Exchange.
- With a 70 km canal dividing the harbour and the adjacent Palm Jebel Ali, each district has something to offer residents and visitors, ranging from retail, entertainment, hotels and resorts, as well as a thriving business community.
- Bringing an additional 850kn of waterfront to Dubai, multiple roads and facilities that cannot be found anywhere else and expected to be home to around 400,000 people, Dubai Waterfront is an extraordinary project and a visionary effort to bring the World’s fastest growing city to an even better.
