Raft Foundation Cast at Luxury Four Tower Project in the Burj Area of Dubai
New Delhi 3 February 2014: DAMAC Properties, one of the largest residential,
leisure and commercial developers in Dubai and the Middle East, has announced
the completion of the first major construction phase at DAMAC Towers by
Paramount.
The concrete raft has been cast at the US$1 billion project in the Burj Area of
Dubai, allowing main construction to begin on all of the four towers.
“This is a critically important phase for the development,” said Niall McLoughlin,
Senior Vice President, DAMAC Properties. “Now that the full raft has been cast,
work can begin on the main floors. As you drive past the project in the coming
weeks and months, you will start to see this impressive structure rise from the
ground.”
More than 19,000 cubic metres of concrete and over 2.2 metric tonnes of
reinforced bar were used in the construction of the raft. Work is now underway on
the four main 70-storey towers, which will eventually rise 250 metres into the air.
The project includes more than 1,800 units comprising one, two and three
bedroom serviced hotel rooms and residences.
The Serviced Hotel residences come fully furnished and fully serviced, with fitted
kitchens, valet parking, concierge, housekeeping, in-room beauty treatments and
a kids club. In addition, owners can elect to add their residence in the ‘rental pool’
whilst they are away from Dubai, allowing for rental returns to be generated on
the unit – all managed by DAMAC Maison.
The project also includes a Paramount Hotels & Resorts hotel in which investors
can purchase a stake in the booming Dubai hospitality market by owning their
own hotel room and earning revenue on the unit.
The project also includes a multi-level plaza, offering a selection of themed food
& beverage concepts, meeting & events facilities, a screening room, wellness &
fitness centres, swimming pools, kids club, retail, and merchandise.
DAMAC Towers by Paramount was the first project announced as part of the
collaboration with Paramount Hotels & Resorts(PHR-FZ-LLC). Since then,
DAMAC Properties has introduced the Paramount Hotel Jumeirah Waterfront, in
addition to the DAMAC Villas by Paramount being developed at the AKOYA by

estate, which is realising values nearly 60% more than non-branded projects in
the Burj Area,” added McLoughlin. “The consistent construction on the project
will only enhance the attractiveness of DAMAC Towers by Paramount to buyers
interested in the Burj Area of Dubai.”
