Burj Dubai April 25th 2008 photo update

Burj Dubai April 25th 2008 photo update, In the photo below you can see where they are trenching for the new fountain area which is diectly in front of the Palace Hotel, Burj Park V it has been credited with having some of the best views. They are in the process of digging up the concrete lined trench that is adjacent to the mall so who knows what will happen there as this looked like a completed area and would only be a deeper part of the lake if not used for a fountain. The last photo is two phots put together to make one big photo of downtown Dubai.
