Above: two views of the Marina 1 complex,
which consists of six high-rise buildings
(l-r: Al Mass Tower, Fairooz Tower, Murjan Tower, Mesk Tower, Yass Tower and Anbar Tower).
These six towers were all completed in 2003 and consist of 1,100 residential units.
The Marina 1 complex was the first complex of the Dubai Marina area.
At the moment, many new towers are under construction, while many others are planned,
and will be constructed in the next few years (around 150 towers).
Among them several towers that will be among the tallest in the world.
The Dubai Marina area will be the world's largest waterfront development, when completed in 2009 or 2010.
It will eventually house close to 40,000 people.
Adjecent to Dubai Marina are Dubai Internet City and Dubai Media City.
Several tall towers are planned here as well.

The building was still under construction when the pictures were taken (March 2005).
The building will be partly residential and partly hotel.
The hotel is expected to open in June of 2005.
