Nice project , BUT ..... the location of the project is meant to go against town planning rule , i expect Lagos Govt would deny them building permit .. . .

Just at the location where it is meant to be built for God Sake,
These drawings are deceitful. Look at the back of the buildings and you’ll see the Ocean. But practically speaking the Eko Atlantic City reclamation with extend to that place and end somewhere close to Alpha beach. So in some years time it’s roads or buildings you’ll be seeing at their backyard and not the beaches as the drawings show.
So it’s either they drawings are very old or the developers are hiding the facts for now.

The Eko Atlantic City project will NOT cover Oniru beach.

Not sure what you mean by “go[ing] against town planning rule”, but the Lagos government did NOT deny them building permit.

This project is actually NOT a mere “proposal”. Rather it is a currently ongoing project, with some of the buildings already completed and in use (the Convention Center, the building housing the Hard Rock Cafe, and the office tower and corporate hotel). Other buildings (such as the Renaissance Landmark Lagos Hotel and the Marriott Executive Apartments) are presently under construction.

There is a proposal by the federal or was it State government to build a multi-lane coastal highway along the northern part of Eko atlantic connected with a new suspension bridge. You even see it in the eko atlantic plans and renders. soon that beach front development will be a 8 lane highway in a few years

This video does a good job of discussing the Landmark Village project.

Not seeing much from the links that you posted.

Nevertheless, the proposal for a six-lane coastal highway beginning from the present Ahmadu Bello Road and running along the present coastline has since been abandoned. There's been recent discussions about an Eti-Osa/Lekki coastal road, but any such development will be unlikely to affect Oniru beach (which btw is indigenous royal property). In fact, the Lagos government itself is now developing the beach at Epe.

My dear, you need to refresh your knowledge.

Firstly, Landmark Center is on Water Coporation road, not Oniru beach.

Secondly, as speak right now the outer spheres (rock deposits) of the reclamation otherwise known as "the great wall of lagos" has gotten to Landmark Center.

Thirdly, Oniru beach will be covered by the Eko Atlantic City.

Kindly do a research on these my points before you comment.

Daaamn, extension ALL THE WAY to the Alpha beach area :eek:

That is an over 100% expansion.

And your own “reserach” is a colloquial news report (not even an official document) from ELEVEN YEARS AGO in 2006? Anyway, let’s just wait and see. Perhaps your conjecture will turn out to be correct and those bankers and investors that have committed billions towards this project should be perhaps have forgone their due diligence process and instead relied on the “research” of a 2006 colloquial article. Time will tell. Cheers.

PS: Btw, Landmark is at the beginning of Water Corporation Drive in Oniru, right by the beach. A few years ago, I posted my personal pictures right here on SSC when Landmark was essentially just an events tent on the beach. Feel free to search for it.

BTW, the highlighted is NOT part of Eko Atlantic City, albeit it works in tandem with EAC. Rather, it is part of the Lagos State government’s shoreline protection project to restore approximately seven kilometers of eroded and damaged coastline beginning from the back of Eko Atlantic City up to Alpha Beach. It is SEPERATE government project and will not destroy Oniru Beach (or Alpha Beach). Perhaps you could use a little bit more “research”.

The easiest way to grasp the Lagos Shoreline Protection project is that the so-called Great Wall will cover every bit of Eko Atlantic City but EAC will not cover (or abut) every bit of the Great Wall. In fact, most of the Great Wall will be OUTSIDE the Eko Atlantic City project.

It was clearly stated in the news that Eko Atlantic City project was extended to Alpha beach.
http://www.urbaniverse.com/lagos-to-extend-eko-atlantic-city-project/

But your own private interpretation is that it's only just a shoreline protection. Can we see the proof or have the source of your this your view please.

The Lagos State Government Tuesday unfolded plans to extend the Eko Atlantic City Project from the Bar Beach in Victoria Island to Alpha Beach in Lekki, as a way of permanently protecting lives and property along the state’s section of the Atlantic Ocean.
It also lamented the refusal of the Federal Government to fulfil its promise to address ocean erosion, which it said, affected strategic parts of the state before it took the initiative to build the Eko Atlantic City as a permanent solution to the ecological challenge.
The state Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN), explained the state’s response to ecological challenges during an inspection of some strategic projects in Lekki and Victoria Island yesterday, noting that the Federal Government had not given assistance to the state government in tackling the challenge.
Fashola, accompanied by the state’s Commissioner for the Environment, Mr. Tunji Bello and his Works and Infrastructure counterpart, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, among others, inspected the International Arbitration Centre in Lekki, Maternal and Childcare Centre in Ajah, Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge, Ozumba Mbadiwe Road project, Fairmont Garden Mixed Development and Dolphin jetty project.
During the inspection, the governor expressed the resolve of the state government “to protect lives and property along the shore. It is a major ecological challenge for the state. We are going to build and protect for another 7.3 kilometres and that would get to Alpha Beach.
“Last August, we had a big storm when the Atlantic ran into the Kuramo and threatened all the property in that axis. You will recall that we had to abandoned few projects that we intended to do on that axis and re-ordered our budget so that we could respond to the emergency to safe lives in some of the estates located on the axis.
I think Joblessbeggar is right on this one. The EAC extension is not an end in itself but a means to an end (solving coastal erosion issues in the state).

This doesnt show he is right in any way. To start with, the thought of whole Eko Atlantic Project came up as a result of the massive flooding being expirienced on Ahmadu Bello Way, Victoria Island. Its in a bid to protect Victoria Island from flooding and protect Bar Beach from Erosion that they decided to embark upon Eko Atlantic City and create a buffer zone of land between the Ocean and the road.
https://www.ekoatlantic.com/latestnews/press-clipping/eko-atlantic-city-worlds-biggest-project/


Now Ahmadu Bello Way has been saved from Ocean overflow and the inland erosion of Bar Beach has been stopped. So what next, they have decided to elongate this project eatsward to Alpha beach so that the coastlines there will also be saved from erosion. Meaning that what was done for bar beach is what will be done for the coast lines. And that is exactly what is being done.

Marriott International, Landmark Africa Group Announce Signing Of Renaissance Lagos Hotel And Marriott Executive Apartments

By FOOTPRINT TO AFRICA October 18, 2017



Marriott International and Landmark Africa Group today announced the signing of Renaissance Lagos Hotel and Marriott Executive Apartments. Slated to open in 2020, the hotels will be located within the Landmark Village precinct, a premier mixed-use, business, leisure and lifestyle development along the Atlantic Ocean waterfront in Victoria Island, the central business district of Lagos.

“We are excited to partner with the Landmark Africa Group on this project. With the rapid pace of urbanization more and more guests are looking for the value, the convenience and the vitality that mixed-use provides.

I observe many investors use the term ocean front or water front to deceive buyers. A place u call a water front today may in a few years time may no longer be a water front structure. Many of the plots of land in Lekki and Ikoyi facing the lagoon no longer have any access to a direct view of the water as they used to due to reclamation. Same thing applies to these folks here who claiming to be building a beach structure but will soon be overtaken by an advancing Eko Atlantic City.

The truth remains,in lagos ,before you go for any property because it’s advertised as water front or ocean front,do a proper investigation and check the trend of development in that area otherwise your property will sooner or later be landlocked.
