Nakheel The World island archipelago group in Dubai

The World by Nakheel in Dubai. List of islands, developments, projects with owner name, date announced, project value, completion date, status (where information is available).

Scheduled or estimated completion dates in this table are unlikely to be realistic, especially as we march on through 2009 with little evidence of construction starting anywhere on The World, and various companies delay or put projects on hold as the global financial crisis and downturn in the Dubai property market prompts developers to pause for thought.
