Sabah Al Ahmad Sea City, Kuwait
Client: La’ala Al Kuwait Real Estate Company
The site of the Sabah Al Ahmad Sea City development is adjacent to the Arabian Gulf coastline, 85km south of Kuwait City. There are two natural tidal creeks at the site, and some 50% of the 6,400 hectare area of land for the city development is salt marshland.
From these environmentally impoverished hyper saline creeks, an ecologically rich waterway city is growing. The development of the city is expected to be delivered in up to 10 stages over the course of a 25-year period which started in 2002. A final population of 100,000 is anticipated when occupied.
The primary objective is to develop Sabah Al Ahmed Sea City as a unique and attractive water-based development that encompasses local cultural traditions, tempers the harsh environment with good quality construction, landscaping and recreation facilities; and sets a high standard for waterside development in the Middle East.
