lexy2014:Don't quote me wrong, this is what i said. "Projects like these doesn't get to completion just like Dubai projects, it's evolves dynamism every seconds, it's add values and systematically develop to open architectural evolutionary trends." It is going to be evolving in the process of building, If that not a development what is it man, or maybe we should continue building our 2 storey building hotels, because you think the country is not developed. What about the numerous Job it is going to create, tourist attractions, will that not add to the economy of the country, more money to.pursue other things. |

lexy2014:What your point really... Are you not in support of the project? If yes, why?...Even if you are acting realistic like some thing, i think you should be able to appreciate something good when you see it. This project will.meet the present Dubai, it will even surpass the present dubai hotel and environs |

Can all these computer designed prototypes be replicated in reality that is just the big question. |

israelinvests: In the midst of abject poverty. Very laughable in my opinion. Dubai provides the basics for its citizens and then build infrastructure when those things were in place. We are trying to run without crawling. At this rate another serious End SARS uprising will swallow residents of the so called Eko Atlantic if care is not taken A word is enough for the wise. 1 Like |

ShitStain: The original masterplan features tramway system and waterway transport. Very comprehensive vision and planning. See the full infrastructure blueprint below. https://www.ekoatlantic.com/latestnews/press-clipping/eko-atlantic-city-lagos/ Transportation includes an eight-lane coastal highway, a tramway system, a ferry system, 20km of internal waterway, and a 100km internal network of roads connecting all districts. Eko Atlantic also includes a pedestrian and transport strategy that is designed to reduce road use, minimise traffic congestion and create off-street parking for all vehicles. 1 Like |

Abohboy:I admire your optimism,as well as rossniti the OP. but let me tell you the truth. when completed, it would not be near those prototypes in terms of building size and heights. you can already notice it from the buildings constructed already. I know quite some stuff about real estate. first of all, the fact that they are reclaiming the land will make that land very costly due to costs of reclaimation. Secondly, to raise such structures, you need serious dollar billionaires who are committed the project with all their heart. that's hard to find in Nigeria. thirdly it will be very hard to convince investors that the buildings there will be profitable to sell. up till now Dubai real estate market is still crashing. and their government has heavily borrowed from Abu Dhabi. their government has built many structures and can't convince enough people to buy. even Singapore real estate is not steady. for eko Atlantic now cheaper competition is Springing up in lekki (alaro city) and there is not much demand for office spaces as there are so many indices that result in market instability in Nigeria. there is simply not enough enterprises in Nigeria yet to justify that what was drawn there will be a reality. the place will be nice and beautiful and will definitely have stunning (Africa standard) high-rise buildings here and there. but all those out of this world skyscrapers I'm seeing, is just unrealistic. 2 Likes |

candidtalk:. Even a dog is loyal to its owner. Singapore does not have any mineral resources, yet look at them today. What's my business with the rich, or you think everyone would be rich. Common sense is not not common. Go and build a skyscraper in Afghanistan or Pakistan and see whou would love There. Even if the rich afford it, is that a benefit to the nation. |

JohnBullMySon: It was conceived when Nigeria was having an economic boom which was point before, the project is slow because the economy is slow, if and when manufacturing and agriculture oic up in Nigeria and are giving proper attention by the government and Nigeria starts to grow quickly, more projects like this will spring up and there will be actual demand for it, we have to wait for that time to come in the meantime we have to work with what we have, even if the buildings are not super tall at least they are modern and stylish edifices all concentrated in one area. |

Rossniti before I disagree with you, I have to tender my respect for your optimistic views most of the times. A few well placed corrupt Nigerians and in this case so called Lagosians are selling Lagos birthright and land away. If they want to develop Lagos as you claim, there are many prime areas in Lagos begging for development. Every year, areas are overtaken by flood and rain. The city of Lagos is congested. If they want to develop Lagos, those places would be priorities. But these areas have entrenched Sons of the Soil that would negotiate and make sure they remain owners after development at affordable price. Lagosians are not American Indians and African Americans that can be easily replaced by declaring their land a slum for Urban Renewal. Then sell it to foreigners by those that have no connection or origin in Lagos. In other words leaving Lagosians dispossessed. As for your example of Shoprite, many Nigerians do not get it. Nigeria is the world Capital of Poverty because out of 200 millions or so, 10 to 20% are filthy rich as Politicians and crony businessmen. 10 or even 20 millions is a large population in African and European countries but not in Nigeria! They can afford any market in the world including Shoprite, Dubai or Atlantic City BUT at the expenses of 80% Nigerians and even more people in Lagos dipping further into Poverty! Tinubu, Chagoury group and their cronies making money and selling Lagos can be counted on our fingers. Se you get? This is how the richest country in Africa before Oil Income became the Poorest after Oil Income. Lagos is not for SALE! rossniti: 1 Like |

Re: Eko Atlantic - Nigeria's Answer To Dubai. New Constructions And Update by lexy2014: 6:59pm On Dec 22, 2020 |
marsman: D building of a story building, market creates jobs. Sweeping d streets creates jobs. Since u aren't even sure when d project is going to be completed, what tourist attraction are u referring to? In terms of adding to d economy, so if eko Atlantic isn't completed, nothing will be added to d economy? "More money to pursue which other things"? This is quite funny: "Projects like these doesn't get to completion just like Dubai projects, it's evolves dynamism every seconds, it's add values and systematically develop to open architectural evolutionary trends." How are Dubai projects completed? What is d dynamism in eko Atlantic that hasn't been seen anywhere before? What exactly is the value that is added and the architectural evolutionary trends that you are referring to? 1 Like |

Re: Eko Atlantic - Nigeria's Answer To Dubai. New Constructions And Update by marsman: 8:56pm On Dec 22, 2020 |
lexy2014:I said it will add to the economy, how does that mean nothing is being added to the economy, more money to invest in other sectors, like Education, Agriculture, Power. Remember it is not the Government that is building it, it is been done by private Investors. Tourist don't get attracted, to water falls and volcanoes alone. When Eko Atlantic is completed, it is is going to be attracting spectators from all over the world, just like the numerous Skyscrapers in Dubai were our Politicians go to squander our money. By dynamism i mean they might not even follow the stated blue print, as it is being built new things and developmental plans will be Introduced. when its is completed, at least 2024 according to prediction, is it going to be Animals that will be working in the different buildings? With the rising rate of Unemployment in the country, do you still think we should remain static and not have investments like this that will feed the numerous skilled and unskilled workers we have in the country. Eko Atlantic won't be a static place after completion it is a place, that even after Completion it will keep adding on value, adding on value, changing in style and development. |

lexy2014:Didn't mention your success, i said is it a sin to appreciate this great architecture and Landscape designs, even if you are being realistic. Like i said before,I have seen the blueprint, and i am sure it can compare to the present beautiful areas of Dubai, were we have there skyscraper. Dubai wouldn't remain static, neither will Eko Atlantic. Look forget the fact that it will be ale to compare with Dubai, it IS going to be a place that will be adding value coupled with progressive innovations in the different stages of it development. It will be able to Compete with Dubai after Completion, because it is not being built to be like dubai, it is being built in it own image to surpass dubai. 1 Like |
