The developer, backed by Public Investment Fund, will construct 2,200 units in Phase 1 of Al-Aroos (Bride) project in the Western Red Sea port of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia’s second largest city.
The Arabic language daily Almadina said the project is spread of 4 square million metres and it includes houses, apartments and associated facilities.
“The project comprises pedestrian-friendly roads, green areas, public utilities, retail shopping facilities, besides sport and amusement facilities,” the report said.
It quoted a company statement as saying the project has three phases but it did not make clear when it would be completed.
