News about another mega-metropolis but this time on water.

Maldives Floating City is the first of its kind across the globe — developed to equally embrace sustainability and livability. While attempts at floating cities have been tried before, none have featured MFC’s most compelling selling points: Full-scale technical, logistical and legal expertise. By partnering with the Government of the Maldives, MFC not only offers the most Dutch Docklands Maldives Government of Maldives ambitious architectural planning available, but also a world-class ownership structure that is transparent, value-driven and legally-binding.

In development for more than a decade, MFC will feature thousands of residences, all waterfront, floating along a flexible, functional grid across a 200-hectare lagoon. Inspired by traditional Maldivian sea-faring culture and developed in close cooperation with Maldivian authorities, MFC homes will eventually be joined by hotels, restaurants, stylish boutiques and a world-class marina.

At the heart of MFC is its innovative approach to sophisticated, city-center living. Working with Waterstudio, an urban-planning and architecture firm, Dutch Docklands has devised an on-thewater urban grid built to evolve with the changing needs of the nation, its inhabitants and global visitors.
