Qatar-based Msheireb Properties said it has awarded a major contract to Teyseer Contracting Company and Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC) for the development of the fourth phase of Msheireb Downtown project in capital Doha.

Announcing the contract for the final phase, the developer of Msherieb Downtown Doha said it will be spread over 132,000 sq m gross floor area.

Featuring the development’s tallest building, it will consist of a major public plaza and 11 mixed-use buildings, which include commercial offices, residential and retail space, 5-star hotels, medical office building containing clinical and administrative spaces, and six car parking basements.

This vibrant area will also offer residents and tenants access to Msheireb station, the largest Doha Metro station, which marks the crossing of Qatar Rail’s three metro lines, the Red, Green and Gold Lines.

On the new contract, Ali Al Kuwari, the chief officer for design and delivery at Msheireb Properties, expressed delight at working with Teyseer Contracting Company and CCC.

"Their wealth of expertise, local knowledge, and commitment to Qatar’s 2030 vision provide us with the confidence that together we will deliver the highest quality of standards, and create an iconic project that enhances the city’s urban landscape," he noted.

CCC general manager Osama Al Jarbi said: "The joint venture of Teyseer Contracting Company, TCC and Consolidated Contractors Company, allow us to enhance our services and contribute towards a world class destination that improves the aesthetics of the city and makes living and working more convenient and comfortable."

Msheireb Downtown Doha is a pioneering project developed to revive the old commercial centre of the city of Doha by bridging the past with its cultural ties and ancestry, with the demands of a modern day city, he stated.

The development aims to build sustainable and innovative initiatives that enrich communities and individual lives, promote environment friendly living and rediscover and implement heritage and culture, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
