it's literally like everyone just walked away at the end of the day, very eerie indeed.

 Great to see the old airport site being redeveloped. Sounds an ambitious project. Really hope it is a huge success for investors and Greeks.

Greece is hoping the transformation of a vast site where Athens airport once was can help kick-start the moribund economy.

It is an area larger than the principality of Monaco, more than six million square metres, and about to become Europe’s biggest building project, turning it into what developer Lamda has said will be a world-class, high-end tourist resort.

Lamda’s chief executive Odisseas Athanassio told euronews: “This project will put Greece on the global tourist destination map, as it integrates different uses. There are places in the world with big and beautiful parks, other places with access to beautiful seaside, others with a fantastic climate. Here we’ll have a combination of all three. We’re going to build the biggest and most modern aquarium in Europe, with a sea life museum, one of the biggest parks in Europe, at least one apartment tower that will be the highest in the Mediterranean.”
