Dubai has built, or has been building, manmade marvels in rapid succession over these past few years. With an economic growth of five to nine percent per annum, and having one of the fastest growing infrastructures in the whole world, Dubai has been pouring all their revenues to improve their city in groundbreaking ways. Dubai has sought not only to improve infrastructure, but also push the boundaries of architecture and engineering.
The Burj Al Arab is an achievement in creativity and exuberance, ranking as the only six-star hotel in the world. Built on an artificial island, it also has a seven star property value. The soon to be completed Burj Dubai is also another monument of Dubai’s role in the world. Already it has surpassed the height of the Taipei 101, the current tallest building in the world. Upon completion, it will be the tallest structure man has ever built, surpassing even the Warsaw Radio Mast, which collapsed in 1991. Another great achievement is the Dubailand, an expansive 3 billion square feet community with numerous entertainment venues, theme parks, zoos, and residential and commercial establishments. The Business Bay along Dubai Creek will soon be the commercial and financial hub of Dubai. There are technological cities and expansive communities already near completion as well. Clearly, Dubai is reinventing not only itself, but the possibilities of what mankind can achieve.
The city has the money to spend, and the city spends it to challenge and revolutionize the conventions of what can be realized in a city. With innovation, creativity, money, and manpower, world-renowned artists, architects, engineers, and academics have come to Dubai to set a new bar of city building. But of all the manmade marvels Dubai has built, or has commissioned to build, the Dubai Palm Islands stand out as the ultimate symbol for Dubai’s strength, progress, history, tradition, culture and economic growth today. As the name suggests, each island is shaped like a palm leaf, with a huge crescent on top serving as the breakwater. The three islands are already considered as the biggest manmade islands humans have ever endeavored to achieve; Palm Deira being the largest among the three. Each island will have residential housing lots, where each house will have their own private beach. There will be hundreds of retails stores, numerous establishments, and even apartment buildings. To be more specific, there will be more than a hundred luxury hotels, marinas, restaurants, shopping centers, activity and sports facilities, spas, water theme parks, long jogging routes, nature parks, and many more. The first among these islands commissioned to be built was the Palm Jumeirah. Construction of this island was in 2001, and was soon followed by the construction of Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Deira.
