Your welcome! I think the completion date was set for sometime 2015 actually. They've recently just recently taken all the scaffolding off the central dome and it looks beautiful. They have also leveled and cleaned up the area in the front of the palace so you can really see what looks to be some decent progress. The construction of some of the perimeter buildings are also in advanced stages. I'll try to post some updated pictures soon.

Looking at the render which to me appears fairly accurate based on construction thus far, everything beyond the Emirates Palace and Khalidiya Palace Hotel & Residences complex looks to be "connected" via a covered roadway that starts just beyond the old traffic roundabout in front of Emirates Palace. Obviously that will change as the render shows as the roundabout is no longer there - replaced by a 3-way stop with traffic lights, and a small turnaround circle just beyond that intersection.

The scaffolding is just about off the main dome! The dark clouds with the rain we've been having lately really provide a stark contrast to the white palace. I think the 3rd and 4th pictures really capture this.
