Tbh, I live here and it's not a ghost city. There's tons of shops and restaurants. True, part of the houses are empty but when you go to the beach in the evening, the bar is packed. It's not too bad
Large amounts of vegetation growing on top and around man-made structures is NOT a good thing. Your looking at structural damage from staining, moisture, and creeping vegetation over time.
Eventually it will be called a sinking city like those in mainland china. They call tofu city. Mind you it was artificially built on reclaimed land just less than 10 years ago
No wories, we sold the sea already. They can do what ever they want in that sea. Nothing concerned us. And mind you, we local didnt live there anyway. So if it collapsed, RIP
So many of these nouveau riche developers only want to build upscale housing. I think it's more for prestige than profit. But they fail - Forest City is not the only one. There's not enough rich people to live in all these developments. And lastly, even if they buy it as an investment (aka speculation), then nobody is actually living there meaning the shops, cafes, etc, won't get any business either. A fail for everybody.
China's Country Garden has a 60% stake in the Forest City estate, while the remaining 40% of the estate is owned by Sultan Ibrahim, the king of Malaysia.
People don’t deserve cities like these. Seems as if most people could give less of a crap about innovation, it’s honestly baffling… To reiterate for those who refuse to be lenient about great projects like these, “most people are too stupid to see past their own human characteristics that they don’t care at all about the abstract collective, which has nothing to do with people at all.”
Add monorail within the vicinity will be nice. Or if l.r.t to princess cove area will it be until "Egypt"? Until r.t.s link. Then this can make the marketprice to be normal as reason?
