Emaar Properties has unveiled the Dubai Marina Mall complex, which will consist of an extensive shopping and entertainment centre. The Mall, located along the waterfront, is scheduled to open in the second half of 2008. The complex extends over an area of 42,000 square metres and will have 40,000 square metres of net leasable space.
It will house several retail outlets, an extensive spread of restaurants and cafes, a cineplex and a children's entertainment area, Emaar said in a statment. A two-level basement and a five-storey parking lot is expected to accommodate more than 3,000 vehicles. Emaar is expected to start leasing the retail space soon.
"The Mall highlights Emaar's growth strategy of diversifying into sectors such as education, healthcare, hospitality & leisure, malls, finance and industry, in line with the company's objective of being a total lifestyle provide," said Rashid Doleh, chief executive officer, Emaar Malls Group. "Dubai Marina has a projected total population of 75,000, and with several thousand residents already living in the waterfront neighbourhood, Dubai Marina Mall has a strong captive clientele. Its central location within the master-development will be a key attraction for tenants.
"We aim to provide an exciting mix of tenants within the mall and will include supermarkets, fashionwear, accessories, jewellers, boutiques, book and toy shops and music centres." Emaar Properties has six residential projects in Dubai Marina, a 50 million square feet development with 11 kilometres of waterfront boardwalk. Emaar has handed over three projects - Al Majara, Al Sahab and The Dubai Marina Towers - to residents. Marina Promenade, Marina Quays and Park Island are upcoming projects.
