Alexander Urbanism

Abu Dhabi is a city of approximately one million people, predicted to grow to three million by 2030.  A team of international experts led by Larry Beasley prepared a strategic plan to guide the growth of the city - Plan Abu Dhabi 2030. 

Nathan Alexander was brought in to implement the strategic plan.  This included:

• establishing a state planning agency, the Abu Dhabi Urban Planning Council

• identifying all actions recommended by the report and detailing their current status

• progressing the highest priority recommendations

• advancing the design of a new capital district

• advancing the design of a new city centre on Al Maryah Island.

• assessing development proposals worth hundreds of billions of dollars, including Masdar eco-city.
