Eko Atlantic is a new city being built by the Lagos state Government (in partnership with some private investors) along the coast of Lagos. Actually, it is being built on reclaimed land from the Lagos lagoon; a stretch of coastline adjacent Lagos. When completed, it is going to be the number one Nigerian international commerce city. It is going to have state of the art high tech infrastructure in line with modern and environmental standards.
With a 10 square kilometers land mass, Eko Atlantic City will satisfy needs for tourist, commercial, financial, and residential accommodations. It is speculated that the city would house about a quarter of a million residence. I love futuristic developments, so I decided to showcase some pictures of the ongoing construction of this city of the future in Lagos.
Below are some very recent pictures of some parts of Eko Atlantic City. The first picture shows the Eko Pearl Towers (state of the art residential towers; the type you would find in developed cities like New York City, Kuala Lumpur, and Tokyo). Why travel to Dubai when you can drive to Eko Atlantic. Well, it is still under construction, but I am sure a slogan similar to that would be used in the future for promoting the city.
