“dalieh is one of our last-open access shared space in beirut, the last free entry point to the sea along the city coast. dalieh’s unique landscape and ecological features as well as its rich diversity of topographical and geological composition facing the iconic pigeon rock make it a favorite hang-out site for families and lovers, an exceptional spot for fishing and swimming activities for the local community.

dalieh is threatened and is subject of dubious and corrupt privatization, its future is uncertain; image renderings of luxury resorts overlooking raouché are already in circulation...”

dalieh’s infinty pool consists of a metal frame pool installed on the “edge” of the land. a sign mimicking lebanon ministry of tourism’s signs seen in historical and touristic sites (brown background and white font) is put at the entrance of the space.
