Ocean-front property is at a premium, mainly because there’s so little of it. Well, a finite amount of beach didn’t stop developers in Dubai, the capital of the oil-rich middle-eastern country of United Arab Emirates. They simply decided where they wanted to be, and created more beach — a lot more. Their development idea was to build up the land in the existing ocean by dumping millions of yards of sand, creating and island in the shape of a palm tree. Each branch of the palm has two rows of homes (back to back) each facing the ocean. The result is an island that will one day be home to an estimated one million people.
