The Palm Deira
The Palm Deira by Nakheel is the largest of the three Palm Islands (Palm Jumeirah, Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Deira). It is located on the Deirah coastal area of the Emirate of Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).The 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 Palm Deira will cover 14 kilometers (8.7 miles) in length and 8.5 kilometers (5.3 miles) in width and have an area of 80 square kilometers (861 million square feet). It will consist of residential property, marinas, shopping malls, sports facilities, and clubs. The residential area will be located on the fronds and will contain 8,000 two-storey town houses in three distinct styles - Premier Villas, Grand Villas and Vista Town Homes.
Reclamation work on The Palm, Deira Dubai’s third ambitious residential island project, is progressing rapidly, and land links are expected to be established soon.
Almost 50 million cubic metres of sand which is more than half the total material that was needed to create the land mass of The Palm, Jumeirah has been reclaimed so far.
