    Went to the construction site of The Island by Wasl and I got to take some construction photos from the public beach and mall nearby

  3. More from that same announcement....

    The bidders for the main contract include ALEC Engineering & Contracting, Arabian Construction Company, ASGC Construction, Belhasa Six Construct and China State Construction Engineering Corporation (Middle East), officials from these companies confirmed with Zawya Projects.

    The scope of work involves the construction of a beachfront hotel with 1,400 rooms and apartments, 10 villas, a theatre, retail shops, museums, a beach club and food and beverage facilities, the source said.
    Dubai-based Wasl Hospitality and Leisure, a subsidiary of Wasl Asset Management Group, is expected to award the main construction contract for its MGM Resort, Bellagio and Aria Hotel near Burj Al Arab, Dubai, by mid of first quarter 2021, according to a source close to the project.

    This is from late 2019 but you can clearly see the distinctive island taking shape. Does anyone have any more recent photos of the area?
