ALDAR to showcase Al Raha Beach at 2nd Annual Cityscape Abu Dhabi
ALDAR Properties PJSC, the leading Abu Dhabi-based fully integrated property developer, is unveiling some major precincts within its flagship development, Al Raha Beach, at the second annual Cityscape Abu Dhabi Exhibition 2008 to be held at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre from May 13 to 15th.
ALDAR, a platinum sponsor of Cityscape Abu Dhabi 2008, is showcasing Al Dana precinct, a prestigious commercial landmark in its ultimate waterfront city, Al Raha Beach. Al Dana, meaning “the mother pearl” in Arabic, is a mixture of iconic commercial and residential properties complemented by a host of entertainment, dining, leisure and yachting facilities at the centre of Al Raha Beach. The signature business district and upscale residential marina community is set to become a sought after venue for business and stylish living, and home to several fashionable shopping districts, boutiques, and promenades.
Al Dana has a collection of architectural masterpieces by world class architects. With iconic buildings such as the Abu Dhabi World Trade Centre by Foster & Partners, a unique residential tower by Asymptote, the ALDAR Headquarters by MZ & Partners, the Al Dana residences and towers by 5+Design and a unique building by Rafael Vinoly, Al Dana embodies exclusivity and luxury and is the destination within Al Raha Beach.
ALDAR is also showcasing Al Khubeira, the residential component of Khor Al Raha precinct. The gated community is an embodiment of the needs of today’s lifestyle, combining the natural and sculpted beauty of Abu Dhabi and the Arabian Gulf with modern living. This tranquil precinct offers exclusive private residences and a host of world class amenities
Ronald Stephen Barrott, CEO ALDAR Properties, commented: “ALDAR Properties is looking forward to showcasing these stunning developments at Cityscape Abu Dhabi. Creating sustainable integrated communities is at the forefront of our mission and we are setting several benchmarks in our approach to this business objective. Not only do our projects abide by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) environmental rating system, we are also continually seeking ways to augment our environmental consciousness. The LEED rating system outlines specifications for green building practices, and to date ALDAR has achieved silver to platinum ratings.”
The precincts showcased at Cityscape will enjoy unique advantages, including master planning, integration, excellent location, and superior infrastructure, that are setting the entire Al Raha Beach development apart as the Ultimate Waterfront City.
The eleven precincts will boast a harmonious blend of leisure, business, and tourist attractions that effectively promises residents and visitors a life experience second to none.
“Accessibility has been a very important factor in the development scheme of Al Raha Beach. The infrastructure has been designed to allow the free flow of vehicle and foot traffic throughout the city, and a light rail system along with ‘jet cats’ and water taxis are planned for the project. This infrastructure planning is an integral part of ALDAR’s commitment to build sustainable communities,” concluded Ronald S. Barrott, CEO ALDAR Properties.
