Palm Deira construction

The largest of the three Palm Islands, Palm Deira on completion will cover an area greater than the city of Paris. Featuring 8,000 two-storey houses, villas, and town homes, it is a thriving city in itself offering world class island living. This unique man-made palm-shaped island will consist of a trunk, a crown with 41 fronds, and a surrounding crescent island that will form a water breaker.

The island will consist of residential property, marinas, shopping malls, sports facilities, clubs, and hospitality offerings. It is expected to be completed by 2015.
