Abu Dhabi fund an investor in the $1.1 billion lease of Chicago's parking meters

This investment has since been detailed in many sources, including a dedicated article, a book called Griftopia, on an Huffington Post article last week and recently on a UAE blog called Grapeshisha. You can read those sources for more details.
