  • Conference Full Paper Template
    PT-2013: Coastal and Ocean Engineering ENGI.8751 Undergraduate Student Forum Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, Memorial University, St. John’s, NL, Canada April, 2013 Paper Code. (PT-2013 - Higgins) Engineering Challenges of Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah Kathy Higgins Memorial University of Newfoundland St. John’s, NL, Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT Dubai is the largest city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and is quickly developing into a worldwide cultural and business hub. Its economy is driven by the oil and gas industry, and since the country first began to export oil in 1962, the UAE has morphed from a series of modest fishing communities, to a major economic centre. The financial boom of the oil and gas industry has contributed to the construction of the world’s tallest skyscraper and the world’s largest shopping mall, as well as a flourishing tourism industry. Dubai is constantly pushing the limits of design innovation, which undoubtedly contributes to its touristic appeal. One feature in particular is Palm Jumeirah, which is the first of a series of artificial islands located off the coast of Dubai, in the Persian Gulf. The island is formed in the shape of a palm tree with a protective crescent-shaped breakwater partially enclosing it. The island and breakwater house commercial and residential infrastructure, and adds 78 kilometres to the Dubai coastline. Government owned Nakheel Properties is responsible for the concept and construction. The island was designed by a team of over 40 consultants providing solutions to coastal, material and transportation related concerns. Construction was undertaken by European dredging and marine contractors and began in June 2001.

  • DUBAI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    DUBAI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Dubai | 2019 0 Dubai has developed into the retail hub of the Middle East and is the most sophisticated retail market in the region. The proliferation of retail development over the last ten years has led to Dubai having one of the highest retail to population densities in the world. It finished ahead of New York and London for shopping in TripAdvisor’s recently published second annual Cities Survey. Perhaps the best known of Dubai’s plentiful selection of retail malls is The Dubai Mall which is located in the heart of the prestigious Downtown Dubai and is one of the world’s most-visited retail and entertainment destination, having welcomed more than 80 million visitors annually over the last five years. Dubai Mall provides over 1,350 retail stores and over 200 food and beverage outlets, together with leisure and entertainment attractions. Its most recent expansion in 2017 provides connectivity to the attractions and amenities in the neighbouring Burj Khalifa. Other high- profile retail malls that dominate the retail market include Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Festival City. International retail brands are predominantly operated under license by ‘retail partners’ who hold licenses for multiple brands in their portfolios. These include groups such as Al Shaya, Landmark and Majid Al Futtaim. Often these retail operators can also be mall developers in their own right. These companies are very powerful in the retail sector and can make the difference between a new mall development securing attractive brands or struggling to attract the right brands and potential failure.

  • Island Studies Journal, Vol. 10, No. 2, 2015, Pp. 181-196 Futures, Fakes
    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 10, No. 2, 2015, pp. 181-196 Futures, fakes and discourses of the gigantic and miniature in ‘The World’ islands, Dubai Pamila Gupta University of the Witwatersrand Johannesburg, South Africa [email protected] ABSTRACT: This article takes the “island” as a key trope in tourism studies, exploring how ideas of culture and nature, as well as those of paradise (lost) are central to its interpretation for tourists and tourist industries alike. Increasingly, however, island tourism is blurring the line between geographies of land and water, continent and archipelago, and private and public property. The case of ‘The World’ islands mega project off the coast of Dubai (UAE) is used to chart the changing face and future of island tourism, exploring how spectacle, branding and discourses of the gigantic, miniature, and fake, alongside technological mediations on a large- scale, reflect the postmodern neoliberal world of tourism and the liquid times in which we live. Artificial island complexes such as this one function as cosmopolitan ‘non-places’ at the same time that they reflect a resurgence in (British) nascent nationalism and colonial nostalgia, all the whilst operating in a sea of ‘junkspace’. The shifting cartography of ‘the island’ is thus mapped out to suggest new forms of place-making and tourism’s evolving relationship to these floating islandscapes. Keywords : archipelago; culture; Dubai; island tourism; nature; ‘World Islands’ © 2015 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada Introduction A journey. A saga. A legend. The World is today’s great development epic. An engineering odyssey to create an island paradise of sea, sand and sky, a destination has arrived that allows investors to chart their own course and make the world their own.

  • Construction Process and Post-Construction Impacts of the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
    PT-2013: Coastal and Ocean Engineering ENGI.8751 Undergraduate Student Forum Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, Memorial University, St. John’s, NL, Canada March, 2013 Paper Code. (PT-2013 - Gibling) Construction Process and Post-Construction Impacts of the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, United Arab Emirates Colin Gibling Memorial University St. John's, NL [email protected] ABSTRACT The Palm Jumeirah is an artificial island located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, created through the process of land reclamation. It was developed during an economic boom in Dubai, catering to the increased tourism and luxury living requirements of the city. Design of the Palm Jumeirah started in 2001 and construction has since been completed. Two other islands, the Palm Jebel Ali and the Palm Deira, are still under construction, and are on hold indefinitely following recent financial problems and slowing property markets in Dubai. The Palm Jumeirah was designed largely to combat the problem of limited development space, especially beachfront properties. The palm shape of the island was decided on as it provided significant beachfront area, while remaining culturally relevant and symbolic. Extensive dredging and land reclamation was required to build the two sections: the outer breakwater and the inner palm shape. Throughout the reclamation process, geographical surveys were completed to ensure that the island was being shaped correctly and built up to the designed elevation. After reclamation was complete, vibrocompaction was used to compact and strengthen the sand, making it a suitable base for construction. With construction completed, the impacts of the Palm Jumeirah can be observed. Specific areas of interest are the impacts on the island itself, the surrounding geography and the ecosystem.
