Saudi-based Artar Real Estate Development said work is in full swing at Mada Residences, a luxury residential tower coming up in Downtown Dubai, and it is on track for delivery in the second quarter of 2018.

Artar is ending the year on a high note, having completed 30 floors of the new building, which will stand out among the rest for being delivered on time in one of Dubai’s most sought after neighbourhoods, said a top official.

"Careful planning and execution from our teams of engineers, architects and workers have allowed us to stay on track with development. As it stands, Mada Residences is the only residential building in Downtown Dubai slated for handover as promised in Q2 2018," remarked Okbah Abdulkarim, the chief operating officer at Artar.

Throughout its development, four cranes carried 6,000 tonnes of steel and 31,000 cu m of concrete that went into the construction of 36 floors containing 200 flights of stairs.

Around 13,000 sq m of fire-proof stone finish porcelain cladding and 17,000 sq m of glass make up the façade of Mada Residences, stated Abdulkarim.

"Offering a luxury residential experience in the heart of the city, with 193 spacious one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments designed with liveability in mind, the tower is a one-minute walk from the new Dubai Mall extension and features a Signature Collection of nine elite 4-bedroom apartments," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
