Jebel Ali Village
Appearance
Jebel Ali Village is the re-development of the existing Jebel Ali village. The existing Jebel Ali village was constructed in 1977 to provide accommodation to expatriates. The construction on re-development of Jebel Ali village had already begun in 2008, and was expected to be completed by 2013. The existing villas will be demolished which will give space for new ones. Jebel Ali village upon completion will comprise commercial, community, and retail facilities, and the expansion of existing central park to 12 hectares.[1][2][3] However the project has been put on hold, because of the global economic crisis, that affected Dubai severely.[4] Instead, Nakheel announced in 2013 they are going to renovate the existing villas[5]
