UAE's Milan Expo 2015 Pavilion to be moved to Masdar City

Masdar City is set to become home to UAE’s Foster-designed Pavilion after the completion of the Milan Expo 2015 fair in November.

With land currently being readied for the sand dune-inspired structure, the Pavilion will be used as Masdar’s visitor centre to showcase sustainability projects, reported The National.

“We are already working on the infrastructure of the plot that has been assigned for the pavilion in Masdar City,” said Dr Nawal Al Hosnay, director of sustainability at Masdar.

“Once the Expo finishes we will start dismantling, packing of the pavilion and reconstruction here.”

“This will become Masdar’s visitor centre to show the world the experiences, lessons learnt, projects and initiatives we have been working on. It will be a sustainability hub to showcase what we have done as a nation, our different plans and initiatives,” said Dr Al Hosany.
