The BD150 million artificial Gilgamesh Island project off Muharraq has been blocked. Now the project will be moved to another site because of potential environmental damage, the GDN.

 

The project, expected to be completed in five years, should have been located west of the Muharraq Coastguard. It was to include a 40-storey tower building, housing complex, villas, chalets, harbour, marine museum and cinema complex.
