The Universe
From Mw
The Universe will be a cluster of large coral- shaped islands, which will see the development of major residential, commercial and tourism projects. The Universe will have 3,000 hectares of land and will take 15 to 20 years to develop.
"The Universe" project will feature islands in the shape of the sun, moon and other planets.
[edit] Criticism
The Project has come under heavy criticism from those who have purchased The World Islands as it will congest the area, and continue construction for the next decade
Asked if The Universe would affect the "iconic" status of its other waterfront projects, the company's managing director for design and development Abdul Rahman Kalantar said: "All our projects complement each other. The Universe is another iconic project."
"People ask how we are going to design it and how we are going to execute it. Yes, it is another challenge. But with the experience we have, we are confident that we can deliver," he told Gulf News.
Nakheel came up with the project after doing a market survey and "the sales demand is beyond anybody's imagination."
