Trump owns two golf resorts in Scotland, and the development of
his resort in Balmedie, near Aberdeen in north-east Scotland,
has attracted fierce criticism from some locals and
environmentalists.
The organization invested 100 million pounds in the first phase
of development, and has promised 750 million pounds of
investment in total.
It plans to build 500 residential homes, 50 hotel cottages,
sports center, retail, equestrian and commercial spaces at his
Aberdeen resort, along with other leisure facilities.
"Initial interest to our plans have been incredible and, subject
to detailed planning approval, we are aiming to break ground
next year," Eric Trump, who along with his brother Donald Jr.
leads the Trump Organization, said in a statement.
The U.S. president visited his other golf course in Turnberry
during his visit to Britain earlier this month where he played
two rounds of golf.
