I noticed that one too and I looked for info on it but couldnt find anything. Its Pearl of Dubai I think and not Dubai Pearl (Dubai Pearl being the project Dubai Lover linked to).

Noticed it too, but ignored it cuz it's just like many other projects in that map which are very confusing like the Jebel Ali Airport, the Jebel Ali Beach Improvement project (could be known as Rio de Jumeirah) etc.

Yes, this looks like another Nakheel blockbuster artifical island.
Not to be confused with the other Pearl mentioned in this thread by Dubai-Lover.

Is this the project formerly-known as Moon, you know, the one with the Casino on it. If so, finally the half of the dream of someone new here, would become true.

^No, the Moon is gonna be built in The Bahamas, they've confirmed in their last newsletter about a month ago. It would be cool if "The Pearl" would turn out to be something like the moon and have like a strict Pearl theme to it just like The Moon's. Tacky, but fun!

I have a strong feeling we'll find out very soon. Hopefully it belongs to Nakheel. Then we can expect something real grand. It seems to be the size of Palm Jumeirah.
