With this plan every unit in the project is a corner unit overlooking three streets, a rare advantage among eighth district projects.<\/p>\n<p>The project has more than 7 feddans of green space, lakes, fountains and landscaping out of about 35 feddans in total. EGYGAB worked with the American office SGA, founded in 1995 with a global record in architectural design, to shape the facades in a contemporary style combining wide glass, wooden touches and light colors, and cooperated with the consultancy AECOM on additional engineering work.<\/p>\n<p>Units range between two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments and townhouses, so they suit small and medium families and anyone who prefers a relatively independent home. The plot is one of the last available in the eighth district, overlooking three streets and facing the Green River and the Central Park.<\/p>\n<p>The two payment plans rest on a low down payment followed by a second payment three months after booking, then equal installments stretching to the longest payment term available in the eighth district. That suits anyone who wants to spread payments over many years without straining the monthly budget at the start, and we show you the actual installment of each unit on paper before you book.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17397\" src=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/the-islands-new-capital-2.webp\" alt=\"Two residential buildings and a swimming pool at The Islands compound in the New Capital\" width=\"1000\" height=\"501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/the-islands-new-capital-2.webp 1000w, https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/the-islands-new-capital-2-300x150.webp 300w, https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/the-islands-new-capital-2-768x385.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Where is The Islands located<\/h2>\n<p>The Islands is in the eighth district R8 on plot L2, one of the last available plots in this prestigious district, overlooking three streets and facing the Green River and the Central Park.
