This location and design investigation responds to a higher per capita income of the Israeli population combined with normal population growth and the potential land needed for immigration. It also provides new land for the relocation of Israelis refugees from settlements in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank if that publicized political plan proposal is implemented. The island scheme can be created in phases over time. Upgraded existing airport facilities will be expanded near Tel Aviv.

With other deep sea ports available in Israel, no new Container ship or Cargo facilities are required here. New land is provided for special housing on islands that serve the tourist industry. Anticipated here are a range of facilities including hotels, popular waterfront development, cafes, exclusive shopping streets, beaches, recreation facilities, boating, tour ships. For the inhabitants and new residents, a sense of community is established with local services within walking distances.
