wow the list seems really short, but we’ll add to it once the new buildings are either approved/under-construction.

Bahrain is very modern and westernized. I think this small Island nation resembles Dubai in many respect and I visited both Bahrain and Dubai. I liked Seef mall. I felt like I was in a western country when I was in Bahrain.

Clearsky, great that you liked the country .

If most of those buildings are realized, the skyline should be really interseting. I like the policy where a building will only go ahead if the design is excellent. Definately prevents us from having eye sores like elsewhere.

Love the garden concept in al wasmiya tower.

Development Location

Do we have a map of these buildings, some of the key ones are obvious ie: BFH, but do we know the location of the others, such as the Infinity Tower and Dream Tower in seef?

If anyone could provide a map that would be great.
