A list of current and proposed construction and transport projects in Da Nang, Vietnam.
Of all the cities in Southeast Asia, I see Da Nang as the one with the most potential for transformation from a provincial city to a global destination.
Da Nang is the third-largest city in Vietnam, roughly halfway between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Being located in central Vietnam makes it an attractive base for businesses serving all of Vietnam. The city is located on a river by the sea, with mountains a short distance away. The airport is a ten minute drive from the central city area, and it’s the terminus of the East–West Economic Corridor, which will one day link Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and Myanmar.
Tourists used to fly to Danang and go straight to Hoi An. Da Nang has now become a destination in itself, and you visit Hoi An as a side trip. The stretch of beach between Da Nang and Hoi An will eventually be lined with resorts to cater for this tourism boom. It remains to be seen if these developments are managed responsibly, as there are already beaches affected by erosion as a result of construction.
Here are some of the big projects that are underway or are planned in the future.

It’s unclear if that is part of another proposal of a Dubai-like urban area, which is also in the bay. This would be in the flight path of the airport so there wouldn’t be any Dubai-like skyscrapers there.

Son Tra Peninsula
Last but not least controversially is Son Tra Peninsula, which remains under threat from over-development. Officials have already suspended construction of one unauthorized resort, though it seems it is only a matter of time before more development continues.
The plan from Skidmore, Owings and Merrill LLP (SOM) is at least sympathetic to the natural environment to the peninsula. It proposes to designate the island a national park, while building compact, higher-density developments.
A HOLLYWOOD-style DANANG sign is also planned for the peninsula (or you could also say a PATTAYA-style sign).
