Cityscape:
Cityscape brought the people this beautiful giant model of the whole city! yay! I was glad to see the densities (I found no other analytical maps or studies of such). Thanks UPC!
So as you can see, the high rises are confined to the sea fringe, Airport road and the CBD. Everything else is low rise residential.
 |
| Corniche fringe is going left to top, Airport road goes from left to right and the CBD is in that top middle chunk. The white dense area on the top right is Reem Island, yet in the making. |
 |
| You see a shadow of tall buildings along airport road going through the center. To the left is Reem Island, proposed to ease some load off the CBD. The CBD lies on the left of airport road, nearer to the sea, on the main island. All these pictures in this 6-part series were taken long, long ago- when it was nicer to be outside. I haven't been out and about in the city much these days. I'm now obsessed with cats. :) |
