the following maps show some changes that have been taken place in Dubai in recent decades.

Both pictures give information about some renovations that have happened for 10 year in Dubai. In general, the area around the Clock Tower Roundabout in Dubai had became more modern with more amenities and facilities than in the past. In the modest 10 years, there was a vast abundant plot of lands and only a few blocks of flats that had been built with lots of trees and bushes during the period. After a decade, more improvement had been made, particularly, most trees had been cut down and were replaced by a majortity of highrise buildings. However, in the heart of the city, the Clock Tower Roundabout which is the landmark of Dubai was remained without any alternations, and surrounding by a small amount of trees that was planted in circle direction around it. Another stood out point was a hefty number of vehicles that transported on the street compared to the deserted street in the old days.
