Msheireb Properties, a leading real estate development company, said work is progressing well on its flagship project Msheireb Downtown Doha (MDD) which is now 88 per cent complete with some areas of the project already operational.

A subsidiary of Qatar Foundation for Education, Sciences and Social Development, the company announced the project progress at the ongoing Cityscape Qatar.

Msheireb Properties is offering retailers, residents and commercial entities access to new leasing opportunities at MDD - the nation’s highly-anticipated downtown new regeneration project.

With some areas of the project already operational including Msheireb mosque, Qatar Academy – Msheireb (school), msheireb prayer ground, Amiri Diwan and the acclaimed Msheireb Museums, 2018 is particularly exciting as new elements will be activated across a broad spectrum of exciting retail, residential and commercial options, said the statement from the Qatari developer.

Those who sign new commercial leasing agreements this week will join an elite list of government entities and global and regional brands, it stated.

This includes Qatar Financial Centre (QFC), which is moving all its business to MDD the new Financial City of Qatar, as well as flagship brands such as Novo cinemas and Al Meera.
