Abu Dhabi will get a new $14.7bn (approximately £8bn) gateway to the city following the announcement of a massive city district development project, according to Gulf News. The Aldar Properties project will be built on reclaimed land at Al Raha beach along the Abu Dhabi to Dubai highway. Low-rise beachfront buildings and 60-story tower blocks will be built over 120m sq ft, expected to eventually accommodate house 120,000 residents.
