Eko Atlantic City



Eko Atlantic City, Lagos

Eko Atlantic is a dynamic new city that will rise from the Atlantic Ocean, adjacent to Victoria Island in Lagos, Nigeria, the biggest and fastest growing city in West Africa. It will be built on land that is being reclaimed from the sea, and is now for sale.

Eko Atlantic will become home to at least 250,000 residents, with commuter volume expected to exceed 150,000 people daily.

In essence it is a huge reclamation project, replacing land that was lost during a hundred years of severe coastal erosion. Complex marine works engaging world-renowned consultants and contractors to roll back surging waves from the Atlantic Ocean have already begun.

Valuable land that was lost to generations of Nigerians has started to reappear, expanding every day.

Eko Atlantic will grow into a vibrant, twenty-first century city, larger than Victoria Island, and will help to establish Lagos as the financial capital of Africa. The project is slated to be completed in seven (7) years time.
