In December 2011, the Turkish
government announced plans to further modernize the airport as part of Turkey's
wider involvement in the post-conflict local reconstruction process. Planned
renovations will include new systems and infrastructure, including a modern

refurbish its aviation building and build a new one, as well as modernize other
modern service structures. This is his $10 million project that will increase
the airport's existing capacity from 15 to 60 aircraft
FUTURE
Somali federal
government has said that in the future it will be moved from Aden Adde Airport
in Mogadishu, because it is located in the city, and the airport has changed
into a residential area for embassies and foreign agencies, so in the future, it
is a large international airport will be built on the outskirts of Mogadishu.
the first survey for the project to build a new airport in Mogadishu officially
started in January 2020, and the airport will be built on a 14km plot. The

PAST
The oldest existing Masjid in Somalia is Masjid Jaama’a (also
known as Friday Mosque or Masjid Jum’ah) – built in the year 636 AH, it is
situated in the heart of Hamarweyne. It is one of the three oldest Mosques in
Mogadishu, the other two being Masjid Araba’a Rukun and Masjid Fakr ad-Din
(both built in 667 AH), all located in the historical quarters of Hamarweyn and
Shingani. According to locals and oral tradition, the mosque was originally
called Mohammed al Awal (which translated to Mohammed the 1st), this attests to
the fact that the mosque was built during the period when Mogadishu was ruled
under Mohammed Ali. In addition, adducing to this is that it was under his rule
the Mosque Mohammed al Tani was also built, which translates to
Mohammed the Second.

PRESENT
The Mosque of Islamic Solidarity was constructed in 1987 by
Hamar Construction company with financial support from the Saudi Fahd bin Abdul
Aziz Al Saud Foundation. It is the main mosque in Somalia's capital city, and
an iconic building in Somali society. Following the start of the civil war in
the early 1990s, the masjid closed down. It was later reopened in 2006 by the
Islamic Courts Union, which began raising funds from the business community for
intended renovations of parts of the building. In 2015, the Federal Government
of Somalia completed formal refurbishments on the mosque's infrastructure. The
Mosque of Islamic Solidarity is the single largest masjid in the Horn of
Africa. It is capable of accommodating up to 10,000 worshippers. The Masjid
also overlooks the Somalia Sea.

FUTURE
The cost of building the mosque was paid by the great
businessman Sheikh Ahmed Nur Ali Jim’ale, who named the mosque after his father
Ali Jim’ale, may God have mercy on him. Sheikh Ahmed Noor Ali is the main owner
of Hormuud telecommunication company which is a company that provides
telecommunications and other services. The mosque was built in a very high
style, different from other mosques in Mogadishu, and it looks like the mosques
in Turkey, while its construction has been going on for years
PAST
The design
and shape of the building facilitate teaching and learning in many different ways.
The environmentally friendly building is an example of the importance of nature
and how to lead a friendly lifestyle in collaboration with the environment. Other factors such as the air circulation, temperature, noise, color, and
lighting of the interiors add value to the learning styles and skill
development of a child.

Present
School building designs can
vary greatly in appearance, from modest private schools with a single main
building to expansive public schools that may house hundreds of children.
However, all great school building designs should share similarities in safe
structural designs, non-toxic and eco-friendly materials, and features that
promote a more comfortable, stimulating atmosphere.
