I don't understand why people think only tourist will visit. It's in a giant metropolis of over 20 million people.

I thought America was kinda finished with the idea of large mega malls. Only still popular in Dubai where you never ever go outside unless you're in a car or at the beach.

As with anything else people don't like, the good news is that you won't be forced to visit. I'm sure there will be more than enough people to make up for it though. Even the JETS and the GIANTS tried to block this thing because they know the crowds it will bring.




Anyway, a review of sorts...

Meanwhile, it may not be Dubai, but Miami had it's own American Dream proposal...
