ABUJA GETS A BRAND NEW TRADE CENTER

The complex, according to its creators, draws inspiration from similar developments in modern cities such as Tokyo, New York, Berlin, Stockholm and Paris, characterized by a good transportation network, infrastructure with modern amenities, quality housing including high rise and skyscraper buildings, and a high-tech lifestyle. Nigeria's capital city of Abuja is about to get a new heart: a brand new World Trade Center complex.
The development is expected to open to the public early next year after the completion of the first phase of construction. It will join a network of 323 locations in 89 countries, started in 1970 with the inauguration of the first World Trade Center in New York City.
Funded by local and foreign financial institutions, as well as private investors, to the tune of 200 billion Nigerian Naira, or just over $1 billion, the WTC Abuja will be the largest mixed-use development in West Africa.
