Our
Vision |
| |
The
new city of Eko Atlantic is the most impressive urban
development project in Nigeria.
Eko Atlantic will be a new home to 250,000 people and
the workplace of another 150,000. The nine square
kilometre development will have waterfront areas,
tree-lined streets, efficient transport systems and
mixed-use plots that combine residential areas with
leisure facilities, offices and shops.
Eko Atlantic will enhance the status of Lagos and create
a new and stronger financial hub for the whole of West
Africa.
Imagine Eko Atlantic
If you visit Lagos today, the pressure on space is
obvious; Eko Atlantic will be very different indeed:
|
· |
Instead of a severe shortage of space for
development, there will be room to grow. Eko
Atlantic offers millions of square metres of
prime development land, available to acquire
now, for African and international investors to
help build a truly remarkable new city. |
| |
|
|
·
|
Instead of snarling traffic jams and travel
chaos, the streets of Eko Atlantic will be
clear. Traffic will flow freely, even in
commuter rush hours.
| - |
The planners have allowed for the
maximum possible number of off-street
parking areas, with residential and office
parking lots in the lower levels of
buildings in all districts. The size of
buildings is limited by the potential
for parking spaces and there will be
plenty of
park and ride facilities; ad
hoc street parking will not be
permitted.
|
| - |
The extensive network of public
transport – a tramway and a waterway –
will link with public transport points
on Victoria Island and into the rest of
Lagos. |
| |
|
|
|
· |
Instead of the claustrophobic city environment
of Lagos, Eko Atlantic will provide dramatic
views over the Atlantic Ocean, clear, tree-lined
streets and open spaces. Each district of the
new city will have a well-designed mix of
residential developments, offices and commercial
buildings, shops, bars and restaurants.
Facilities for socialising for business or
pleasure will always be just around the corner,
creating a safe atmosphere for people to live,
work and play. |
| |
|
|
· |
Instead of the frequent power cuts, water
shortages and communications breakdowns that are
well known in Lagos, Eko Atlantic will have
uninterrupted services. The power generation
plant, sewage treatment facilities and fresh
water supply will be unrivalled in West Africa.
Communications have also been made a priority – both for local networking and international
commerce. |
