Eko Atlantic City is arguably Nigeria's flagship real estate development. 9 million square metres of prime land, reclaimed and annexed to the exclusive Victoria Island. This is an architect's playground, a developers delight and an engineering spectacle. The planning and vision for this development actually goes back a lot further than publicized, during the Tinubu administration. However the project was only announced to the Public in 2007, as a venture spearheaded by South Energyx (Subsidiary of Chagoury Group).
This project has already involved many international partners such as Ar + h architects, MZ Architects, Dar Al-Handasah, Dredging International and Royal Haskoning just to name a few.
This project will feature a lot of what is missing in Nigeria's property market. An international caliber financial district, a residential Energy Estate for the Oil/Gas Sector, high density residential/commercial, another A Grade Mall (Eko Mall) totalling 40,000 sqm in lettable space, Marina district, tramway and other highbrow features, that will make this, the face of Nigerian retail, commerce, finance and much more.
A lot is already underway and construction is around the clock. Below are some updates sourced from Eko Atlantic City (Dated May 2014 & July 2014).
