Vue De Lac (French for "View of Lake") is a complex of three towers in Jumeirah Lake Towers in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Two of the towers, Vue De Lac 1 and Vista Del Lago, have 40 floors. Vue De Lac 2 has 45 floors. Completion of the complex was initially promised for September 2007.[1] In 2009 a group of 30 investors filed a case with RERA against delays in construction and changes to design plans.[1] An official from Al Attar Properties responded that the changes were due to regulation changes and that refunds would not be considered.[2] In early 2010 Al Attar Properties started chasing investors for $18.5 million, despite the development still not being completed.

Al Attar Properties has been subject of extensive lawsuits by the investors.

[3] As of 2011 main construction work had still not commenced on the development.[4]

The development featured on an episode of Homes from Hell on ITV1 in July 2010.

Other projects by the same developer include: Global Point, Polaris, Skyscraper, Toronto tower, Vancouver Tower. Toronto and Vancouver towers were cancelled by Dubai RERA. - Vue De Lac - Vista De Lagohttp://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/uae/housing-property/jlt-owners-still-waiting-for-homes-promised-in-2007-1.526478 http://www.constructionweekonline.com/article-6698-disgruntled-investors-storm-rera-office/
