Wha? Hydropolis?

It’s incredible all the construction going on in Dubai! Well, not to mention the tallest building on earth posted not too long ago here at The Pompomist. But some projects aare just hard to believe. Like this one called Hydropolis: the world's first luxury underwater hotel currently under construction in Dubai. According to their website, is expected to be ready at the end of 2007… really?

It will include a ‘land station’, a 220-suite hotel, a cosmetic surgery clinic, a connecting tunnel, a restaurant, a cinema, a marine biological research laboratory and conference facilities. It will supposedly be the largest contemporary construction projects in the world, covering an area of 260 hectares.


Joachim Hauser is the developer and master mind behind this futuristic hotel, which will be located below the surface of the Arabian Gulf.

Now I just have one simple question: if this is ready for business, why do they have just five cheesy renderings on their website?

What do you think?
