This thread focuses on urban development projects built on reclaimed land — where cities extend into the sea, rivers, or lakes to create entirely new districts.

Share and discuss:

• Major land reclamation masterplans and urban expansions
• Artificial islands and coastal megaprojects
• Engineering, environmental, and planning challenges
• Examples from Singapore, Dubai, Copenhagen, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Jeddah, and beyond

From palm-shaped islands to climate-resilient coastal cities — let’s track how the world is building new land for urban futures.
