Abu Dhabi City is building, and building BIG. They're hard at work on an incredible $300 billion plan to grow as quickly as possible. But they want to do it while protecting the city's culture, heritage, and natural environment.
The centerpiece of this plan towers over the heart of the city: Aldar's appropriately-named Central Market. A 12-acre urban oasis filling 4 blocks, Central Market is a self-sustainable community for the modern ages, designed with a uniquely Arab point of view. Centered around the tallest residential tower on Earth, Central Market will be the first facility in the world that will take care of every spiritual, material, and relaxation need a person could have. It will also feature one of the world's tallest office towers, entertainment facilities for all ages, sky-high playgrounds for children, high-end shops, Edenesque gardens, hotels, as well as a reinvention of a traditional Arabian Souq — complete with a large mosque and vast outdoor market space filled with traditional Arabian goods.
