Urban development in Bangladesh

[Russell]

It doesnt look comical...it actually looks kinda cool.

But, it is as likely to get built as Pakistanis are of admitting the genocidal rape spree their army went on during '71.

For those still confused, that would be - ZERO.

Jamuna Future Park Mall images (currently one of largest in South Asia by sq. ft. area and 11th largest in the world)

One of the seven different domes where corridors meet for the eight floors...

Is there any plan for expansion of JFP?
When it was under construction,it's gross leasable are were shown 4.1 million sq. feet and 3rd largest in the world.Now it's gross leasable area is showing only 1.6 million sq. feet and ranking gone down to 78th! So what happened?

There is no project as profitable as when it is backed by government.
Not sure about the design but it will get built whatever the final design is.

This could be a great symbol of Dhaka.In one stroke it will enhance the image of Dhaka to the world in a big way.Like the same way Petronas tower did for Kuala Lampur or Burj-al-khalifa for Dubai.

This is not an orthodox design for skyscraper. And that's the nicest thing I can say about it. What's with the coke bottle shapes??

Reminds me more of this Aladdin thing....

We should focus more on transport and fixing the pollution in Dhaka before any sort of major monument, no one will come see it if it's unreachable and in an inhospitable location.

I believe they will expand it in phases.....

If it gets built...it will take 8-10 years. The transportation system will have improved by then. Metro rails and BRT services will be fully operational.

Now if you wait 8-10 years before start building a monument like this...it will take 10 more years to complete. So, I guess taking an initiative like this now is the right move. But I think the chances of it getting built is rather low.

Regent Airways has grown - from being the new kid on the block next to GMG and United BD as the competition against Bangladesh's state operator - to become the only private Bangladeshi airline offering a real alternative to Biman on routes like Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.
