Azizi Developments, one of the leading private developers in the UAE, has awarded two contracts worth Dh1.5 billion ($408.38 million) for the construction of Phase One of the Azizi Victoria project in Dubai, UAE.

Work will commence immediately, said the developer. Construction is due to be completed in Q3, 2019.

Two contractors have been appointed to build 32 buildings with 4,000 units that are part of the development. Green Modelling Contracting has been appointed to construct 16 buildings and Modern Civil International Contracting Company will build the remainder.

Mirwais Azizi, chairman of Azizi Group, said: “Azizi Developments has developed a strong reputation in the market for its ability to develop multiple mega-projects and deliver them ahead of schedule. Our goal for 2018 is to continue at the same rapid pace of development and ensure that we meet the growing demand for premier residential real estate in Dubai. The real estate sector in the emirate remains vibrant, driven by strong demand in certain key locations and we remain committed to delivering adequate supply to meet the aspirations of residents.”

Azizi Victoria will comprise premium residential units within an integrated retail district, offering residents a taste of contemporary living as well as plenty of shopping and entertainment options. Its location in the heart of Dubai provides easy access to the city’s top landmarks, including Dubai Mall and Downtown Dubai.

Spread over a construction area of 33 million sq ft, Azizi Victoria in Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum City – District 7 comprises 105 mid and high-rise residential buildings of 30,000 units of studio, one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments, a retail district and two hotels.

The project is twice the size of the Azizi Riviera canal-development in Meydan One. While Azizi Riviera draws inspiration from the French Riviera, Azizi Victoria has themes and elements influenced by contemporary British culture and way of living.

Azizi Victoria’s architectural style is contemporary freestyle, with occasional Postmodern influences. However, the design has inherited stylistic influences from the Southern European clustered-town configuration and a number of certain high-street features, specific to British Georgian downtowns, the company said. – TradeArabia News Service
