For Sale: Artificial Island

creative | October 10th, 2008 by dave

Mark this under un-f*&king-believable. “The World” is a man-made archipelago of 300 islands constructed in the shape of a world map and located 2.5 miles off the coast of Dubai. The overall development cost of The World was estimated as 14 billion. As for the individual islands, prices range between 15 and 50 million and there’s still one available. Just think, the $700 billion bailout could have totally bought us a new world. [via ISO50]
