They even have it at an exact slope where also cars and people can see it from ground level

talk about a company wanting a name for its self

I don't see how that does the company any good. It's so friggin' huge that you'd have to keep your eyes off the road for a good twenty seconds to even read it.

I think the topic on the front page of that paper (the link) was more interesting. I wonder what the standards for a green building in Dubai would be.

Well at least they dont have to worry about it getting covered up by snow in the winter...

Wait. Are all those little dots in the beach people?

And that is huge, is it close to an airport?

HI Guys first time here. How about more recent pics of the Marina!!

Aleks · #10 Posted **Oct 26, 2007, 4:23 AM**

Hi Madison Mia!

Anyways if you want pics of the Marina go to the Marina thread in the Middle East Forum. I would give you the link but it's best if you do it on your own to get used to the site. That and I'm feeling lazy.

Yes it is. The landing approach route to Dubai International Airport passes there and the planes flies not more then 300 meters (1000 ft) above ground at that spot.

That is meant to be read from the air by the passangers on the planes flying overhead, and it does the company as much good as a Lexus ad in front of a Mercedes showroom will (If you know what I mean).
