Same counts for Green Community/Dubai Investments Park: dozens of unfinished buildings. International Media Production Zone: empty plots, unfinished buildings - a ghost town. We could go on and on. Dubai counts on the short memory of investors.
For us Dubai residents has the story a bad side: the rent prices rise, even tens of thousands of flats and villas are empty.

What a shame that many of the previous announcements have not come to fruition as planned. Has anybody taken a trip to Sports City lately? A great idea but still not anywhere near complete as planned. An empty canal, buildings started and left, a sports stadium that has been started and left, 3rd stadium not even started, shopping complex not started etc. Not a good advert for a country that wants to attract the Expo and in the past has talked about olympics. Dubai has made astounding strides over the years, it would be nice to see a bit more attention being visible on long outstanding projects in order to further enhance the vision of Dubai.
