The Vision Tower will be an icon that will shine as a 'Beacon of Excellence' offering the best business address in the region: DP CEO Al Dabal
Dubai - United Arab Emirates: Dubai Properties has announced the launch of a landmark skyscraper - The Vision Tower - that will stand 51-storeys tall at the entrance of Dubai's famed The Business Bay.
"The Vision Tower will be Dubai Properties' first standalone office tower. It is one of the very few freehold office towers available in the city and it occupies the best possible location in the upcoming commercial and residential hub of The Business Bay," said Hashim Al Dabal, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Properties.
"We have named it 'The Vision Tower' as we believe it personifies the few who are able to see far into the future and leverage the advantages that the tower offers in terms of its own unique facilities as well as the location advantage. That is why, we have a theme for The Vision Tower - 'Let your vision separate your business from the rest'" Al Dabal pointed out.
"The city of Dubai is booming and opportunities are mushrooming everywhere. The city is giving birth to its new entrepreneurs and attracting more from the region and the far corners of the world. Locally incorporated businesses are expanding and growing phenomenally - all of which is creating a massive requirement for premium office space," Al Dabal pointed out.
RESPONSIVE TO DEMAND
To meet this demand, the Business Bay is being developed along the lines of Manhattan of New York or the Ginza of Tokyo, to provide the best possible commercial environment to world-class companies, investors and businesses. It will be the best business address in town and The Vision Tower will be one of the best addresses within The Business Bay, said the Dubai Properties CEO.
"Business Bay is a city built to outshine the world's most prominent cities in terms of infrastructure, design, urban planning, architecture and perfect environmental balance. It is one of the few developments that offer freehold office towers at the emerging centre of Dubai's new business district along the new creek," Al Dabal said.
"There is growing demand for freehold commercial spaces and we have responded by coming to the market with a unique office tower building at one of the best locations in the country," Al Dabal pointed out.
He said that Dubai Properties is looking to host CEOs and decision-makers and those top executives who believe in uniqueness and image as parameters for their success, at The Vision Tower.
The Vision Tower will house modern business centres and offices, affording its tenants easy accessibility as well as great visibility. It is ideally located at the main entrance of Business Bay, just off Sheikh Zayed Road. Attracting the Middle East's premier organisations, The Vision Tower will be amongst the most prestigious power offices in the region.
As the gateway to The Business Bay, The Vision Tower will be an architectural icon. It will offer 500,000 square feet of prime space in 51 storeys of transparent glass allowing clear two-way views and making for an unconventional and iconic structure.
The bent glass facade of The Vision Tower will become the signature element. The glass faade will be made up of a wall of high-tech transparent glazing that will be internally lit to create a luminous beacon.
COMMANDING VIEWS
The glass faade will allow commanding views of Sheikh Zayed Road, Business Bay and the new creek, while the lighting will ensure that The Vision Tower represents the emerging stature of Business Bay and indeed, Dubai. The prestige class office space will offer well-planned office floors with proper depth to maximise workplace layout efficiency and productivity.
The Vision Tower will provide unparalleled infrastructure and amenities It will offer its tenants unique freehold office spaces. The fact that no office space is similar to the other in terms of shape, size and design will give each business an individuality and identity all its own, thus differentiating it from the rest. The design of each office space is customised so as to ensure maximum work place efficiency.
The Vision Tower will be seamlessly connected to the Bay Avenue, health club, restaurants and other amenities by an exclusive passage. A sprawling parking lot will provide access to 1,420 cars.
"It's everything a business demands. The Vision Tower has just about everything modern visionaries expect. A vibrant and dynamic business community, easy access and great visibility both from the inside and the outside, uniquely designed office spaces, landmark architecture to complement the prestigious business address, state-of-the-art infrastructure and amenities and freehold office spaces offering the advantage of rental savings and sizable value appreciation," Dubai Properties CEO Al Dabal pointed out.
