DEVELOPER MAKES BIG WAVES WITH WORLD'S 'SMARTEST' ECO-CITY

摘要

Stanley C. Gale's grandfather made waves by moving east from New York City and building summer homes along Long Island Sound. Nine decades later, his grandson is making even bigger waves by moving even farther east to create the world's largest private development. His grandfather's project sat on reclaimed land in Huntington. The $3 5-bil-lion Songdo International Business District (IBD), which will enclose 100 million sq ft, sits on 1,500 reclaimed acres along the Yellow Sea in Incheon in the Republic of Korea. "We are the first non-Korean firm to own land in South Korea," says Gale, chairman of Gale International.
