I have a few questions about some of the construction in Doha that remained unanswered.

1. Whats the deal with Palm Island, I did hear that it is going to be the worlds largest water feature?

2. Whats the little bit of construction down on the corniche where they have put in all the cones, it's like a little dock behind the hoardings.

3. At the Intercon, they are building what looks like staff accomodation, or apartments? Any ideas.

4. What is the land behind the Intercon going to be used for as it's recently been flattened down?

5. What is the building that looks like it's Captain Nemo's Nautilus thats next to the Intercon?

6. What is the Cultural Village near the Intercon going to be and what features will it have?

7. Anyone got any ideas about the huge hole on the otherside of the road to the Intercon, behind the boards, the thing is about 45 feet deep!

8. Whats going on in front of the Sheraton?

Is it just me or is there a great deal of poor communication to the population as to what is going on in Doha?! Word of mouth is a great way to advertise the city, but only when people know what is going on!

Here are some that I know of:
2. I think its some sort of drainage for the Asian Games village.
5. Its the new exhibition center (open the thread for Doha Construction pics I think and you'll find a pic)
6. I think there is a thread somewhere here for it, but I cant think of it off hand.
