Emaar Properties unveils Dubai Marina Mall complex

Emaar Properties has unveiled the Dubai Marina Mall complex comprising a shopping and entertainment centre. Promising to be a total shopping and lifestyle destination, Dubai Marina Mall, located along the waterfront, is scheduled to open in the second half of 2008.
The Dubai Marina Mall complex extends over an area of 42,000 sq m and will have 40,000 sq m of net lease able space. It will house several retail outlets offering an array of shopping options, an extensive spread of restaurants and cafes, a cineplex and children's entertainment area. A two-level basement plus five-storey parking lot will accommodate over 3,000 vehicles.

Emaar Malls Group LLC, the retail subsidiary of Emaar Properties, will start leasing the retail space soon. The focus is on offering a balanced retail and entertainment spread that meets the needs of Dubai Marina residents and visitors.

Dubai Marina has a projected total population of 75,000, and with several thousand residents already living in the waterfront neighbourhood, Dubai Marina Mall has a strong captive clientele. Its central location within the master-development will be a key attraction for tenants. It will attract exciting mix of tenants within the mall and will include supermarkets, fashionwear, accessories, jewellers, boutiques, book and toy shops and music centres. Dubai Marina Mall will sport a distinctive architectural style with a circular atrium that makes utmost use of the waterfront location. A pier, extending to the waterfront, will be lined with cafes and restaurants. The promenade level will anchor a variety of stores as well as food and beverage outlets that open to the waterfront. The ground and first floors showcase a wide range of retail options, while the second floor of the mall is dedicated for children's entertainment, food court and a cineplex with eight screens.

Emaar Properties has six residential projects in Dubai Marina, a 50 million sq ft development with 11 km of waterfront boardwalk. Emaar has handed over three projects - Al Majara, Al Sahab and The Dubai Marina Towers - to residents. The three up-and-coming projects - Marina Promenade, Marina Quays and Park Island - also will provide residents the luxuries of waterfront living as well as easy access to the Dubai Marina Mall.
