one of the tallest residential buildings in Dubai.

The Al Fattan development is in the heart of Dubai’s prestigious Marina Development and will be completed by 2005. Dubai’s Marina Complex has been designed as a city of the future with apartment towers, hotels, shopping centres and recreational facilities.

Each tower will have around 188 apartments.
Mivan will help construct a second giant 245m-high in same project !

been a change-check out all the facts on skyscrapers.com. confirmed height at 245 to top of spire

What a shame :( i though if they had more floors than the emirates towers they could reach the 400 meter mark :( but i guess we will just have to go with the 245 meter figure !

coming along very nice
both a diff heights will they catch up

I was dissappointed at first when i learnt these towers were going to be under the 300 meter mark :\ but i guess they are tall enough !

But does this mean all the tower at JBR are going to be under 230 meters ? coz in the billboard the al fattan towers look a lot higher than any buildings going up in the JBR area

jbr towers vary from 75m to 200m!!! al fattan are 245m!

such a contrast
shame these two break up JBR

they don't fit perfectly to the jbr skyline but i like the contrast! green and yellow-brown! nice!

these babies are huge and going up so fast its amazing

i'm sure they do
a shame the developer al fattan didn't update their construction pics since early august :(
http://www.alfattan.com/afp/home.html
it's all a matter of "do it yourself"

well its not long til you get out there and you can overload the site with photos

18 oct 2004
http://img23.exs.cx/img23/6017/alfattan2.jpg

great!
still a long way to go
and i can see jbr coming out of the ground now (bottom left)

thats a very good update by Michiel!

these towers are really really tall even if theyre not 300m

245 is not bad and as they are exactly in the center of the jumeirah beach residence development they will add some premium density. anyway, the 36 beach residence towers will make the whole marina look very dense

somehow, some people say they don't fit into this beach residence complex. i think it's a nice contrast to split the complex

The owner is Musabeh Rashid Al Fattan

From Michiel picture you can't figure out, but the towers are at different construction stage. One of the towers has at least 5 more constructed floors that the other one.

A week ago I was on Hilton Jumeirah Beach and the construction noice from them was clearly audible, somehow disturbing I may add.

finally al fattan has uploaded some new site pics

here you can clearly see what altin said

daily
i've saved all project & tower websites as favorites, so it takes me 5 minutes to check them all! :)
also have a dsl flatrate, so i'm online when pc is on (when i'm at home). ssc.com always opened then :lol: doing other stuff simultaneously

and i'm enjoying my freetime that i'll have this year only because of obligatory civilian service. also enjoying the fact i have no duties this year, i just have to register at a business school for march 2006.
i may be offline for a couple of months next year, when i'm in the usa, visiting a friend

i think you wanted to say "guten abend herr hartmann" ;) "aber" is the english "but" ;)

These 2 are coming along very nicely indeed, the fascade that they've started putting on looks superb.

i also think the green facade will look stunning
but too little windows installed atm

these guys are going to steal the spotlight for a while , however , after a lot of the other monsters are completed at the dubai marina , these bad boys will be lost forever :/

well until now they tower above everything else in the marina
there are just those supertalls like le reve, marina crown, al marsa, number one in the outer marina across the bridge
these will dominate until a 250+ tower will be released

Aghhh lets cross our fingers :)

Dennis , i dont know if you noticed it too , but have you ever seen this short building on the outskirts of the dubai mrina as you are heading to dubai from AD , its got this grotisc colourful colour to it :/ i really hope its just plastic protecting the glass

hmmm, i don't know what building you mean
maybe i know it when i see it
but i impossibly can remember all buildings :D

oh lucky me , i was able to find it

its that blue disgusting thing , its right on top of the camrys roof

Oh no , this cant be happening :sleepy: thsi ugly ugly low rise is going to be blue , NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO



mohammed bin rashid , save us , save dubai , save us all :eek2:

oh come on, azure is a nice little building :)
and isn't it between skyscrapers so you can't even see it in the end :)

hmmh, why can't I see la riviera building in that pic, hmmh
oh maybe it's that in the right lower corner

i think smaller buildings are needed
it will look great when everything is finished
only talls like al fattan would also be boring
a nice mixture is a must

yep mixed density is better
is there an open atrium in these ?

one tower will have a bigger base
but not sure what's going to be inside

by dubai boy
towers are in back ground JBR in front and both sides

towers will be done before the web site is by the look of it

Al Fattan Marine Towers

Freehold apartments at the Al Fattan Marine Towers will be on sale until December 18 in the penthouse of the Oasis Hotel in Dubai. The high-specification towers in the Dubai Marina have great views and apartments start from USD408,000 for two-bedrooms. Developer is Al Fattan Properties.

http://www.ameinfo.com/news/Real_Estate/

I can see the facade now, Is that it?....Looks sort of different...

in the recent press releases about the start of the sales this week the articles said the towers will be 250m?

what about it?
where did we get the 245 from?

245m was in an article about peri formwork in construction week about 6 months ago.

a rercent article said they would be 53 stories each but that may include basements ?

today

http://www.skyscrapercity.com/photopost/data/500/11020al_fattan_towers-december2004-1.jpg

today

from oasis beach hotel car park
al fattan towers are very close to theis hotel, just across the street, maybe 40m

http://www.skyscrapercity.com/photopost/data/500/11020al_fattan_towers-december2004-3.jpg

seems huge in these ones and coming up so so far
ye svery close but there is heaps of open space in front
they are not built right on top of the hotel and the beach

only about ten stories to go on the taller one, I counted almost 40 stories, Im really starting to like these two. The renderings were very misleading, they showed very thin buildings with wierd facades when in fact they're quite 'fat' and are moslty glass. Thanx Dubai_Lover, great update.

Wow! I love the glass facade, really nice! :)

completely new homepage

www.alfattantower.com

Nice update, the facade is looking good. I was shocked how close the building site was near the Oasis hotel. Still it was a lot more expensive than the Fairmont where we were staying.

Oasis Beach Hotel is actually a 4 Star Hotel, but beach hotels are becoming very expensive now, due to lack of Hotels.

You told me the Fairmont rate back then, I don't remember how much it was, but I remember that it was a very good one.

Im really falling for these two.

The facade is going up pretty fast now! :D

http://www.skyscrapercity.com/photopost/data/500/11020al_fattan_towers-january2005-1.jpg

the small minibus in that last picture really reflects the size of this monster!

far out !

I read that these are now in fact 53 stories each however I dont know if that included the shopping mall/parking at the base

and i still don't know what to do with the 250m as reported in the last articles
where was the 245m confirmed from?

245 was written in a constrcution week article about deka formwork and they said the formwork went up to 230 with a total height of 245

Al Fattan Towers, 10pc deposit
The Al Fattan Marina Towers are being offered with a 10 per cent down payment and easy instalment plans at the Dubai Property Investment Exhibition this week. Each apartment maximises marina and ocean views and even has its own mail box which is unusual in Dubai. Visit, www.alfattantower.com
http://www.ameinfo.com/news/Detailed/53129.html

can't belive that there is no real mail service in Dubai ! LOL makes this tower have a selling point

Actually most of the new towers will have their own postal boxes and they advertise it. The lack of them in residental buildings now is mostly becouse of people being temporary in the country and their habit to change apartments often, but with the freehold properties introduced now, there is no reason why Emirates Post shouldn't start the mail delivery services.

If that happen, would the stamp price increase? I doubt it will remain 50 Fils as it is today.

no thats far too little maybe there should be more for the price on delivery to houses vs mail center boxes ?

The "shorter" one in the foreground:

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid157/p7cdcf1ed7abd3031962d09b2f3a2cc1c/f537e2a3.jpg

Those will look great and will definitely dominate the skyline in that area...
the tallest jbr tower is 180 i guess isn't it?

^ 200 actually.

mhmmm ok
better is that...hehe
But the Al fattan stand very much for themselves...so they will dominate this area...

The JBR towers are going to match Fattan in height in about a year's time!

Mhm yes i see...
i thought the al Fattan are little bit higher than all the JBR towers, but i think i was wrong actually...

again:
al fattan: both 245m
jbr: ranging from 76m to 200m

So is was right actually?
mhm i loke those two, look very cool...
and i love the color, as it is a uncommon one...

New better render

http://www.themovechannel.com/property/62/PF002/al_fattan_towers_high_res.jpg

wow awesome, where are you finding these samir?

i just love these
from this angle they remind me a bit of complex federation in moscow, don't they?

Move Channel - an international online real estate.. got it from their website!

wow amazing one....
when will they be completed?
december?

amazing render, higher quality renders are a main factor in determining how much I like a tower :).

According to an ad from a real estate company, on Gulf News's Properties section; only one tower is up for sale. The apartments on the other one, or "phase one" as they call it, will be for LEASING only, but the prices and the conditions aren't released yet. :uh:

leasing? i guess you mean "rent"?

this would be the first project to offer this on the first sale market in the marina?

It is yes.
But actually it is not renting but leasing, there is a certain difference between those but i don't want to explain as i am not sure about it and don't think it is totally right...

great, the facade is climbing the building now
did we reach the top floor already?

think so...
wow this is sooo dense, look at that picture with the street in front..
i love the facade...! nice colour.nice towers!

This is how i understand it...
A lease is usualy a long term rent, [in the case of property, say perhaps 20 or 99 years, for cars, maybe 3 years] Generaly the whole lease is paid at once as if it were being bought.

renting is usualy renewed anualy or monthly and is paid in regular instalments.

mhm yes this might be right....
i think i will look in a dictionay later, as i really want to know it now!

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/DarkBlueBoss/Fattan-Pool.jpg

are they extending marina, ?check out pic 2 and 3

Wrong subforum, Nice pictures!

these twins look great, drove past yesterday and the glass is an awesome green/blue colour

stunning updates
agreed the facade is mind blowing :eek:

thanks for pics.
oh yes the facade is one of the best ive ever seen. even better than on the renders.!

remind me of Emirates Towers, they have something similar:) But both projects look amazing:)

^ Architects are the same (NORR Group from Cananda)

BTW they have started work on the roof ornament of the first tower, which was topped up a couple of weeks ago. Have you noticed the iron structure being erected there?

http://www.tp.spt.fi/~jukarkil/uae/jbr_cam.jpg
indeed, there's something on top

they are constructing the rooftop which you can see in this render

can we say it's topped out then?

http://www.themovechannel.com/property/62/PF002/al_fattan_towers_high_res.jpg

I think that thing on the top is the bit right under the greyish/white top of the tower. That's a nice render and this is a great addition to the skyline. Last time I was in Dubai, this was a whole in the ground or probably even just a fence.

i love the webcams ;)
these two will be landmark towers..

view from above March 20

that night shot really shows a wall of scrapers !!

These are the type of towers that i prefer modren and stylish ;)

impressive...compare the water's colour of the marina and the ocean ... lol

Dated: April 7th, 2005

not much of a difference since last thursday, however, more glass, thats about it,
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/DarkBlueBoss/F-towers.jpg

this is the steel structure that i told u about, that will cool the fattan towers for the next 9 months - 1 year , i took this picture before we finished loading the cooling units, so if u pass by and see it, thank me for a good job.
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/DarkBlueBoss/P4070031.jpg

this isnt very clear, but its one of the JBR towers, just look at the number of cranes sticking out of it, pretty cool

hey thanks for updates.
the glass facade is really stunning.
and al seef is a beauty, more and more with every picture!
number one is coming along nicely too...
and they are already doing facade on al marsa...

thanks for the update :)

coming along nicely.
i love the facades colour...
what is the low rise building in the first picture i front?

good question
it's a completed one hence it can only be the villa part of al sahab towers

WOW. Are those atriums that run the entire height of the towers. Cause that would be amazing!

^ Panoramic lifts and atriums.

Emirates Hotel Tower (same architect, similar design) has also the same going up to the 40th floor.

This is the view from The Emirates Hotel Tower lift at the 40th floor

http://x2.putfile.com/4/10707354740.jpg

that is a great feature... just amazing..!

View from the Oasis Beach Club 3 May 2005
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v302/seonnecken/AlFattan1.jpg

Wow :runaway:

wtf...that looks ... awesome!!
thanks!!

wow, the facades on tower 2 are almost finished
it looks stunning

spire will give it a nice finish

How much for a 2bed here?

They asked me 3.000.000 dh for a 3 beds, front beach.
As told in the market thread, more of half of the second tower is still unsold.

That is a little steep don't you think!!

That is a little steep don't you think!!

Oh yes, i think it's very steep. Could be interesting to knw what's the starting price for flat was.

Fattan towers have the best location probably in DM and they will also provide one of the best facilities to residents, so that kinda price must be expected

i was told 2.600.000 dhs last time...about two months ago, that was for the beachfront about 200 sqm i think...
but i would say reasonable...!

2.6million is better than 3million. What I don't get is, if nobody has bought the penthouse, why does it keep going up?

I can only imagine that the construction costs are covered with neither half of flats sold. :eek2:




Unbelievable, but the only reasonable explanation.

well it is the same as with marina heights, not all flat sold, but prices increased 12 % in january.
don't know, maybe they expect their apts to be sold anyway when the tower nears completion.

Oh yes, i think it's very steep. Could be interesting to knw what's the starting price for flat was.

a Studio apt is starting at 1,000,000 dhs ,

and they actually have a criteria on their customers, not everyone can just buy there. . . this is according to one of the managers for this project.

what are their criteria exactly?

i wonder too?
maybe you have to have a job or whatever...

i wonder too?
maybe you have to have a job or whatever...

Probably you have to have a good job!

Maybe they are worried about people being able to use the lifts.

IQ perhaps???

well, as far as that Local investor told me, he said, the priority is for Westerners (Europeans & North American) with certain occupation and status. and also they Job Titles . thats all he told me

well, as far as that Local investor told me, he said, the priority is for Westerners (Europeans & North American) with certain occupation and status. and also they Job Titles . thats all he told me

UHHH really?! And me fool believing they were allowing only people using
Chanel eau de toilet!!!

lol, why are you offending him?

lol, why are you offending him?

No offence only a little joke :), seriously it's very normal they are using such politics to defend customers investement.

This is probably the first freehold tower in Dubai where they have an open nationality and occupation preference, are there any other ones?

not that i know.

so your saying the only pre requ at all other freehold towers in Dubai is just a factor of $

UHHH really?! And me fool believing they were allowing only people using
Chanel eau de toilet!!!

Ma dai, farla finita con la storia della "puzza" :sleepy:


BTW, the Chanel parfume sucks, I prefer Armani myself ... which are all made in France. Go figure.

i use adidas.

Here is a shot of the Entrance and Foyer of the towers, it looks as if it will be quite grand to me. That is Saba Tower @ JLT in the background BTW.

JLT rise very fast!

JLT rise very fast!

what?
this is dubai marina, if it would be JLT , construction pace would be insane, 50F in 5 days since i left. :D
edit oh sorry you referred to saba tower.
well actually they aren't that fast...

Dubai Marina is rising quiet nicely, JLT isn't even finished and and feels like a bland souless place with no life. Must be something in the sand.

you guys don't have to make updates on every day... :D
photos are amazing, it seems that you can't get bad photos on these towers.

^ We were together :D

the al fattan are two of the very best towers i have ever seen.
just great if you stand at the JBR sales center.

The second tower is topped up also and they have already started constructing the roof structure. :eek:

marina terrace workers should have a look to those two...

damn
within two days they installed the windows!

and look at the renders
there will be another part of the structure and the spire!

as long as the other part is constructed with same speed i don't care ;)

insanity!

thnx for another gem Altin~~

:)

june 28

the scaffolding on the spire looks awesome
must be a great place to work up there! :eek:

http://tinypic.com/6h1cvr.jpg

WOW, this towers are magnificent! Great design and great location!

Definitely the best towers in the marina :runaway:

great picture.
i guess it is not that great to work up there at 40 degrees ;)

Very impressive :runaway:
BTW looks like someones trying to increase their post count;)

^ Actually it is better if only a picture, maximum two, are included on a single post, otherwise every page will have tons of pictures and it will never load.

Yes, also I must tell you that I am using a 56K connection and the images are relatively large in size. Have a look at the time gap between each post. It takes time for me to up each image and as I finish with one, I post them here.

no problem , great photos , thanks.
these are really impressive, and one / two ;) of my favourites in DM for sure.

You are using Photobucked and you're posting very big images. Actually I'm surprised how you haven't reached the bandwidth limit of your account.

Remember when I had that problem 1 1/2 months before and my pictures were not showing? Now I'm resizing my pictures to not bigger then 800 x 600 and using 2 photobucked accounts.

Superb towers....a shame they are not set in landcaped open space from which they can be appreciated in the manner of the Emirates Towers rather than surrounded by the dross that is JBR.

well seeing that these are the tallest among the JBR towers it might look good though..

And how right you are. That's one good thing about the JBR. Their ugliness makes the Al Fattan towers look even more awsome, which they deserve of course :).

BTW any chance of some up-close pics of these? There haven't been some posted for ages.

Next weekend maybe.

today

as you can see tower #2 is almost done and the roof looks awesome
against the sun photos are crappy, sorry :(

Nice! I love how they turned out...way better than the rendering. They also improve the seaside skyline of Dubai Marina which is largely dominated by the quite dull JBR Towers.

wow .... looks like a cool pen coming out of the ground

reminds me to Q1 in Gold Coast.

I hope when they take off the protective layers of those Aluminum Carbon panels on the spire would make the spire looks a bit more thinner, quite a bit large now.

freak! theyre almost ready!

cant wait to have them in Rate our Talls :)

well i dont want to wait .....10/10

reminds me to Q1 in Gold Coast.

i tell you they would look awsome on GC,north of Q1.

The balcony's on these buildings are awsome.

freakin awesome... great looking...

the podium is almost completely cladded
a beauty of a complex :eek:

Great towers, great pictures.
Absolutely brilliant, and the landscaping looks nice too.

aaaaaaamazing. and they are so massive if you stand in front of them.

:D

Beautiful, sexy towers!!

Can't wait until this goes up in the Top 100. Will rate it a 9.5.

I only give 10 to a select few towers, ones that break boundaries and that are brilliant pieces of architecture too. Empire state and chrysler got a 10. Burj Dubai will most likely get a 10 from me when done.

Empire is butt ugly compared to the chrysler to tell u the truth :D

today

only a month for the right one

http://tinypic.com/dxmknn.jpg

sooo amazing!
top-twins :)

Dont you think the Spire kinda over-sized?

Looking great as always ;)

yup some of the best looking towers in dubai till now!

nice :D thanks DL

Dont you think the Spire kinda over-sized?

its kinda fat but that makes it unique.

From this angle they have definitely a resemblance with the Emirates Towers

overall not really. believe me.
