This is incredible, I just been to the office , which was about a 20 min cab ride from the main Dubai area, and it was a sea of tall buildings, and an even bigger sea of tall building beings constructed, then this picture from 1968, not one tall building the picture, lots of sandy spaces between buildings, no port on the beach top left, and no extended pier, but the bottom corner right, the space that is there, incredible, its all tall buildings now
