Leading real-estate development company, Trident International Holdings (TIH), has displayed its maiden freehold project in Dubai. The Waterfront, a boutique 20-storey super-luxury residential tower has come alive at the exclusive Dubai Marina, providing a first hand preview of the capabilities of Trident as an innovative, committed and focused developer of luxurious and niche communities.
Located in the heart of the Dubai Marina community, all 71 residential units that compromise the tower boast of spectacular views of the Marina. Through this project, Trident has introduced pioneering residential concepts of `Smart Homes’ and `Sky Villas’ for the first time in the Middle East. The Waterfront has also set new standards in domestic safety within a residential community being the first residential tower yet again, in the Middle East to install two technologically advanced safety systems ‘Zone Check Water Tester’ and ‘HeartStart Defibrillators’ enhancing living standards of its residents.
Addressing the press at the project site, a beaming Mr. Wazir Daredia, Executive Director & CEO – TIH said, “I distinctly remember this place three years ago during ground breaking, and today with our very first real estate project I can proudly say that we have met with our high expectations very much on schedule. The Waterfront stands testimony to our commitment and attention to every detail.”
Commenting further Mr. Daredia said, “Standing besides impressive project models with glossy brochures is one side of the story, achieving promised deliverables is the other. With The Waterfront we can confidently say that we have delivered over and above set expectations.
Launched in June 2003, this project had met with tremendous response from both the UAE and international markets. Apart from condominiums, located on the ground floor of the tower are 6 spacious duplex villas, each with its own private garden. Also included are two penthouses which have their own temperature controlled private swimming pools and gymnasiums & an internal private panoramic lift among others.
“As part of TIH’s corporate philosophy, we always keep our deliverables in mind, right through all project stages. I have strongly believed that we need to match the expectations of our customers based on what they have seen in our brochures and catalogues. This project testifies our success in this respect. Even though features like Heart Start & Zone Check were not originally planned or budgeted for, we decided to install them to give our customers added value that we always strive to deliver. With the success of these systems and their priceless advantage to residents, we look forward to adapting these and newer innovations across our future projects.” said Mr. Daredia.
“We are proud of our signature offering The Waterfront, a project which strongly exemplifies Trident’s commitment as a quality developer of niche propositions. On this note, we would like to extend a very happy homecoming to our distinguished residents to a world class waterfront living proposition” added Mr. Daredia.
The pioneering concepts of Sky Villas that have been introduced at The Waterfront combine the expansiveness and exclusivity of a villa, with functional and convenient attributes located high up on the 17th and 18th floors of the tower. The ‘Smart Homes’ are equipped with state-of-the-art Home Automation Systems for comfortable lifestyle management, combined with elegance, simplicity, intelligence, flexibility and security. Among others, virtual parenting will be a reality for all residents as this system will enable them access to the web cameras. In case of any breakdowns such as power outage, fire or smoke, the Smart Home is programmed to send SMS alerts on mobile phones. These cutting edge technology features help this marvelous project stand out.
The Waterfront also includes an impressive list of private amenities for its residents. These include perfect recreation & rejuvenation facilities such as a fully equipped gymnasium, a temperature controlled swimming pool, an aerobics & treatment room, and a multi purpose hall for personal occasions. In addition to the children’s play area there is also a day-care / hobby centre for kids.
Among the project partners of this prestigious development are interior design firm Hirsch Bedner & Associates, the undisputed world leader in hospitality design. The technology alliance is backed by a global giant like Honeywell represented by Pacific Control Systems in the U.A.E. German based global major in consumer electronics, Bosch, has exclusively supplied a wide range of customized home appliances that match the luxurious amenities being offered at this grand tower. Larsen & Toubro Ltd, a global engineering and construction conglomerate were awarded the construction contract.
