Imagine... (Part 2)

As I stand at my window and look out over the Dubai Marina I feel some of the emotions that I felt when I first arrived at the MAG 218 Tower in April 2008...

Stay tuned... more to come.

Although 8 years have passed living in the Marina still feels like a new experience. From year to year—almost month to month—things change. The big event this year is the opening of the Jebel Ali International airport, just in time to welcome visitors to the 2016 Dubai Olympics. Dubai has been pre-occupied with this event since the city was chosen back in 2009. If people hadn’t yet heard that Dubai was on the world stage, they finally came to realize it then. At breakneck speed the city accelerated its infrastructure development. The initial rapid transit lines were finished ahead of schedule and new roads linking all the new communities seemed to open up every year. The once notorious traffic jams are now a thing of the past. Especially for residents of the Marina, there’s seldom a need to take your car when you can quickly reach your destination in a comfortable train, winding through the fantastic development projects.
