The
name "Garden City" when heard would probably be referring to a
neighborhood simply containing a lot of gardens and that was the intention
of Frantz Sofio, Charles Bacos and George Maksud,
owners of the Nile Land & Agricultural Company. In 1905 they asked
agricultural engineer José Lamba to create Cairo's newest district
on a plot of land which used to be royal domains of Kasr al-Aaly and two
older sarayas to the north. Work began on the banks of the Nile.
History:
Until the very early years of the nineteenth century the land of Garden
city was only occupied by Kasr El Aaly..
The
whereabouts: Garden City is on the East Side of the Nile very close to downtown,
actually it represents downtown's front on the great river..
Going around:
A cruise in your car around Garden city would probably not
seem like the best thing to do not only because it would be very short..
Lifestyle: By the end of the year
1999 there was a series on Egyptian television based on a novel called
"Hawanem Garden City" meaning the great dames...
Renting
in GardenCity: Garden City is counted amongst
Cairo's first class neighborhoods . .
