Based on Internet research, the Desert Dream plans to build a 48-story tower in Nakheel's Waterfront, which is under construction. The development represents 65% of the developer's land bank and the last 15 km of natural coastline of western Dubai. Waterfront is considered largest master-planned waterfront development in the Middle East. Its Waterfront City will have 12.2 million m2 [131.3 million sf] at completion in 2018 and flanked by five mixed-use districts, each ranging from roughly 810,000 m2 [8.7 million sf] to five million m2 [53.8 million sf].

Waterfront's newest tower project, Dream Harbour, will overlook Palm Jebel Ali and the Arabian Gulf. Desert Dream's project will include retail. Kamal Agostine of Agostine & Raphael of Dubai is the project architect, designing a tower to LEED Gold standards.

Dream Harbour will sit in the Madinat Al Arab district, the Waterfront's phase one. The district is slated for completion in 2015.
