With the scheduled handover of The Old Town Island in the Burj Dubai Downtown development in June 2007 approaching, construction is progressing rapidly. The 26-hectare Arabian inspired island located at the heart of Burj Dubai Downtown has attracted tremendous interest from investors.
"With construction rapidly moving ahead, buyers can see their dream home taking shape and the realization of what this project will offer is fast becoming a reality," said Bahiya Kayed, Assistant Director of Sales, Emaar Properties, according to Gulf News.
Capturing the traditional charm of ancient Arabia and offering an exclusive and modern lifestyle, The Old Town Island is a car free zone which allows residents and visitors to make the most of the captivating alleyways, courtyards, shaded avenues, restaurants, cafes, boutiques and the traditional souk.
"Ever since the launch of the first phase of the Al Tajer Residences at The Old Town Island, we have seen tremendous interest from buyers as it features some of the best views of the majestic Burj Dubai. The Old Town Island is where east meets west traditional architecture blended with modern amenities," Kayed added.
The developments offers low-rise waterfront apartments, 35,000 square meters of retail in the style of a traditional souk, 8,000 square meters of boutique offices and a five star hotel.
