Dubai Islands

A co-worker showed me pictures of some of the development in Dubai. They are undertaking massive building projects, which include several hundred man-made islands laid in the ocean in shapes which will be habitable. They are being sold for 7 to 35 million dollars a piece. Where did I leave my piggy bank?...


The first two massive projects undertaken were two palm trees. This is a link to a progressive slide show of 2001 to 2006 when one of the Palms was nearly finished.


Here's are pictures of the completed products.

  1. This is all very well and interesting, but the general feeling here is that we are tired of looking at this picture every time we come to your blog!
