The West Wharf, an 18-story residential tower overlooking the creek in Business Bay, is set to be designed by master architect - Hazel Wong, who also designed the Emirates Towers.
Wong was chosen by Karim Chamseddine, executive director of Corporate Finance House, a Beirut-based investment bank and developer of the West Wharf, according to Khaleej Times.
The West Wharf will consist of studios, one and two bedroom simplex and duplex apartments, studio and one bedroom lofts, and three bedroom townhouses. With the building scheduled for completion in December 2008, prices range from Dh790,000 for a studio on up to Dh4.2 million for a townhouse.
"This is our first project in Dubai and so we needed to have an impact," said Chamseddine.
"If you have a good architect you will have a good project, ensuring it will be delivered in good quality and good terms," he added.
Situated in the Phase 1 section of Business Bay, West Wharf promises luxury leisure facilities such as private swimming pools, high-tech connectivity, security features and fitness accommodations.
