Dubai Waterfront
is a stunning new development, a conglomeration of
canals and islands studded withluxury
hotels and homes, extending the Dubai coastal line
by 800 kilometers. Larger than Manhattan, this luxury
district will transform the shape of Dubai, and offer
250 master planned communities.
The Dubai Waterfront will create
a world-class destination for residents and visitors,
symbolizing the phenomenal growth of Dubai. The scale
of the development is one that will go down in history
as the world’s largest man-made development.
The 70-kilometer canal cleaves through the desert
while the sweeping arc of manmade islands shelters
the surrounding Palm Jebel Ali. The harbor provides
sea access for trade and entertainment and surrounding
the harbor is a series of zones with mixed use, commercial,
residential, resort and amenity areas.
The master plan of the Dubai
Waterfront is based on a series of ten zones designated
for different purposes. The development will also
boast a new city center, anchored by Al Burj, one
of the world’s tallest skyscrapers, which is
being designed to reflect the meteoric growth of Dubai.
The Waterfront will feature exclusive luxury hotels
and resorts, including an underwater hotel, Hydropolis,
as well as shopping centers, entertainment venues
and cultural arenas.
The Waterfront project will
build multiple roads and waterways, five square kilometers
of coral reef and an additional 850-kilometre waterfront,
12 times the length of the existing Dubai coastline.
The planned communities on the waterfront are expected
to house up to 400,000 people.
