XPRESS reveals the master plan behind the demolition notices handed out to residents of Satwa. The area has been earmarked for a multi-billion dirham transformation project that aims to change the landscape of Dubai in dramatic fashion.

Dubai may soon become the Venice of the East.

According to a draft master plan, a copy of which was obtained by XPRESS, winding waterways, lush green gardens and parks and waterfront properties are set to replace the dilapidated buildings and shanty neighbourhoods of Satwa.
