What's the housing project I see being built.

^^ It's Single family homes. It would be nice to get some more photos of that particular neighborhood. Both properties to the left and right are being worked on, the garden beams are in place, the balcony is looking good. I could imagine how that hood would look like when it's finished.

Great pics.

But to be honest, that could be any other large city in Africa, it really isn't a unique place.

great pics... some building are a beautiful architecture...

lovely pics

i want to revive this thread because frankly, i have never seen many african cities like this and i am just delighted to see africa in a new angle. i expected a lot worse but usually, my expectations were beaten, i hope NIger becomes wealthier soon, I hear it has one of the lowest HDI's in the world :(

This thread cannot die...

i love this city it reminds me of my home town KITUI, KENYA as in very hot not a whole lot of greenery and pple just like to take it easy.

Is this country desert ? all I see is red sands

^ Both Sahelian and Saharan features.

an interesting city, but clearly is in the very early stages of development

am I right to persume that the oioulation either lives in the far west on the niger river or on the far east on lake chad?

Niger seems far better than Central African Republic. However, the latter presents more potential for further development and infrastructural improvement.

Niamey is a great city indeed.
