Middle East Foundation Group appointed as enabling works contractor

· 22 km of piling with 222,000 cubic metres of earth to be excavated

Dubai, UAE: The construction of The Address Residences Jumeirah Resort + Spa, an iconic new development defined by its breathtaking design and unique location at the end of the Jumeirah Beach Walk in Dubai Marina, has commenced with Middle East Foundation Group appointed as enabling works contractor.

It will be the tallest tower on the beach in the last available land plot for development on Jumeirah Beach Walk, with direct views of the Arabian Gulf, Dubai Marina and Ain Dubai, the world’s largest observation wheel. It is in walking distance of the Dubai Marina Walk, Jumeirah Beach Walk and The Beach.

Middle East Foundation Group is undertaking the foundation work, which will feature 22 km of bored piling for the two-tower development. Over 222,000 cubic metres of earth will be excavated for the three basement levels.

The Address Residences Jumeirah Resort + Spa has a built-up area of 255,000 sqm. It is essentially a single tower, arranged in a split formation to maximise light and ensure sweeping views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai Marina. This gives the tower the impression of two towers. The building has a series of infinity pools and terraces skillfully arranged in an extensively landscaped oasis to complement the scenic waterfront setting.

With a distinctive ‘space’ carved out in the centre, the project has three key components: The Address Jumeirah Resort + Spa with 183 rooms and suites, and The Address Residences Jumeirah Resort + Spa, which comprise serviced apartments fully served by The Address Hotels + Resorts, the flagship hotel brand of Emaar Hospitality Group. Both these are located in West Tower, with 75 levels and 303 metres high.

The third component is the residential apartments, ‘The Residences Jumeirah Dubai, Managed by The Address’ located in the East Tower A welcoming lobby links the two towers.
