Insane alex December 31st, 2004, 11:36 PM Man! Another tower??!
Trances January 4th, 2005, 07:31 AM glad this one got it own thread
grab one of the images of the damas thread that i took that really shows it base
Trances January 4th, 2005, 12:37 PM http://www.ayuplanet.com/trances/20040828/DSC08183-Dalma.JPG
you can see in the back gound of this one
a few months old but still very visible
Dubai-Lover January 4th, 2005, 12:38 PM i will keep an eye on all these mysterious towers without sign boards
and yes there are lots of, especially in the marina
hope the sign board goes up before i'll leave!
Trances January 4th, 2005, 12:59 PM we can only hope
looks like my return might be back on in as little as 8 weeks
shame miss each other could meet up !
DUBAI January 4th, 2005, 03:12 PM is there any way of finding out who owns the land?
could it be another damas tower, as its inside the same construction boards?
THE DUBAI GUYS January 4th, 2005, 03:19 PM is it rite behind damas tower? if it is then maybe its the parking lot?? i dunno just suggestions or maybe it is another tower. what about the middle east foundations tower on szr no board. y dont u ask the workers wat it is??
R
Dubai-Lover January 4th, 2005, 05:17 PM it's next to damas, NOT behind
and i have never seen a parking lot with such massive foundations
this piling work is typical for new towers
all towers on szr are very close to each other, and this one has average distance to damas, maybe 12m
towers under construction without sign boards are often found in dubai
and the last thing they will do would be to build a car park in the first row, there's so much space behind the towers and it would be the first car park in front row
so this definitely is a new tower
Michiel January 4th, 2005, 06:52 PM The foundation is pretty massive. Not something for a 25 floor tower I would say.
Krazy January 4th, 2005, 09:04 PM looks like my return might be back on in as little as 8 weeks
Great! How long are you gonna be in Dubai for? Does this mean we're gonna continue getting mad updates from you once D-L leaves??
Krazy January 4th, 2005, 09:06 PM and yea that foundation is defnitely a tower, lets hope for the best!
Trances January 4th, 2005, 11:22 PM just for like 3 days there was not enough time for me to go any where eles so using the time in UAE. Just look enough to check out each site
Dubai-Lover January 31st, 2005, 01:23 PM can somebody have a look at the site right to damas tower please
is there a signboard up yet?
Trances January 31st, 2005, 01:30 PM getting desprate ?
Dubai-Lover January 31st, 2005, 01:32 PM oh yes, i hate it when towers are uc and they don't add the signboards :ohno: :rant: :D
Trances January 31st, 2005, 01:41 PM given the normal time it will be lucky to be one up when i walk past
AltinD February 27th, 2005, 03:52 PM FOUNDATION COMPLEATED!!!!
As Michiel and other said, this isn't a ordinary tower, judging by the site it might be a, close to 200 meters or even more, tower.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid159/pb9db6d02dceb74dda0ae4e096e8c3223/f4fe717a.jpg
The blue plastic is covering the pillar caps, same as on bright Star Tower pictures taken by Krazy on late December - early January.
Hope the work will start soon and a board will be installed.
dubaiflo February 27th, 2005, 04:00 PM so we get a real super-highrise!
amazing!
cannot wait to see a signboard ,same as with the other unnamed...
Dubai-Lover February 27th, 2005, 04:23 PM the hole is not as deep as for rose rotana for example, but it has to be a 200m tower
the size of the hole is as huge as the one of damas tower!
AltinD March 4th, 2005, 11:27 AM Last night and this morning, there were 5 - 6 concrete pumps pouring concrete into the foundation of the tower.
Krazy March 4th, 2005, 11:32 AM and still no board up?
AltinD March 4th, 2005, 11:35 AM Nope, not at all.
AltinD March 5th, 2005, 06:21 PM Raft Foundation compleated
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid160/pfa79b002db08a61c637e8444e1bb4b76/f4ee5861.jpg
... no board yet though :sleepy:
Dubai-Lover March 5th, 2005, 06:41 PM what are these white blocks for?
good to know it's coming up now
AltinD March 5th, 2005, 06:48 PM It seamed like the white foam that is used in packing. The concrete plate was covered in plastic and maybe those blocks were used to keep it in place while not putting pressure on the just poured concrete.
AltinD March 29th, 2005, 06:55 PM Finally a Liebherr yellow crane is UP at the site.
Trances March 31st, 2005, 12:08 AM intresting that is getting to this stage
Krazy March 31st, 2005, 01:05 AM I want the board !!! :rant:
SA BOY March 31st, 2005, 07:16 AM we are still in the dark about this one, Ill have a drive around the back and see whats going on. Im convinced its not part of Damas tower.lets hope they gaet a board up soon
dubaiflo April 4th, 2005, 10:55 PM ^ Piling and the raft foundation is compleated weeks ago. It is definitelly a tower becouse you can see what seams to be the places where the pillars will rise.
so it might rise soon? and perhaps they put up the signboard then...
AltinD April 5th, 2005, 10:05 AM ^ No signboard yet but to complicate the mater even further: the boarding around DAMAS tower is being expanded on the oth other side and within that aerea is enogh place for a THIRD tower.
Let's wait and see. :nuts:
Dubai-Lover April 5th, 2005, 10:05 AM love to hear that of course :D
AltinD April 7th, 2005, 03:21 PM There were some huge metal bars sceletons erected yesterday, propably for the pillars. Finally is raising and hopefully will have some info soon.
Trances April 7th, 2005, 08:11 PM i dont know. The foundations in dubai are never a good indicator of what the height could be ?
DUBAI April 8th, 2005, 12:58 PM its above the height of te boards, now. odd that its all part of the same site though.
AltinD April 13th, 2005, 03:56 PM From the pillar-will-be it is a tower, you can clearly see the density on the central core aerea and also the side structural pillars-will-be.
I say "pillars-will-be" becouse only the metal beams sceletons are up now, the concrete isn't poured yet, at least not till the part visible from above the confinement board.
dubaiflo April 13th, 2005, 06:39 PM so it will rise in a few weeks?...and they haven't made any announcements since that...
now that sucks i would say.
AltinD May 3rd, 2005, 11:19 AM http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid167/p083052638863cd094877f9a30c80b080/f4415eee.jpg
You judge by your selves :runaway:
dubaiflo May 3rd, 2005, 12:47 PM amazing speed... not bad :D
but still nothing...!
DUBAI May 3rd, 2005, 02:00 PM perhaps someone should go over their and ask the workmen what they think the finished building will look like!
seriously, if their is a site office, it cant do any harm to ask!
Dubai-Lover May 3rd, 2005, 02:31 PM good to know it definitely is a tower :)
don't worry, when there's no sign when i'm there i'll ask them
AltinD May 10th, 2005, 06:37 PM May 9th

The floor slab is already compleated now.
Michiel May 10th, 2005, 07:08 PM Thanks for this mega update! Really strange that we still don't know what this will be.
Dubai-Lover May 10th, 2005, 09:41 PM at least we can be sure this really is a tower!
good to see it comning up
but where's the board? :rant:
Trances May 11th, 2005, 05:35 PM some ones gotta ask when we are all there in summer
this many months is just way to long
Dubai-Lover May 14th, 2005, 03:21 PM this indeed could be a triple-tower complex, as the plot on the left side of damas is still free
just look at the pics in both threads
AltinD May 26th, 2005, 05:44 PM http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v705/altind/UnknownDamas2.jpg
Dubai-Lover May 29th, 2005, 10:20 AM i'm 100000000% sure this is a damas twin!!!
i have checked any details, even the width and lenght of the towers are the same!!!
may 29
http://************/5ff712
Krazy May 29th, 2005, 02:22 PM that sux, three towers of the exact same design right next to each other. What's wit Dubai.. first three palms.. now three towers of the exact same design on the most prestigious road in the city?
northway May 29th, 2005, 02:49 PM maybe the hight is different???
Hopefully higher ...
dubaiflo May 29th, 2005, 03:24 PM lol ,what are those architects thinking?
Dubai-Lover May 29th, 2005, 05:38 PM it's not sure there will be 3 damas towers!!!
the plot on the other side of damas tower 1 is still free. nothing happening there
but these 2 have the same dimensions and structure, it's a copy
anyway, damas tower 1 has not yet been launched, neither has it been presented in the news or anywhere else
there is nobody selling this tower yet. once it's close to completion units will be for sale and we will be able to get more details
AltinD May 29th, 2005, 10:22 PM ^ For RENT, not sale. ;)
dubaiflo May 30th, 2005, 09:05 AM if it really looks the same, and we get a third one, AND chelsea tower ,there are three towers exactly the same and one similar...would not like that...
maybe they are different colours, perhaps UAE colors, white green red lol. :D

Citystyle June 8th, 2005, 11:36 AM i will hold my judgment for another 3 month's. Imagin triplets?
Citystyle June 12th, 2005, 08:22 AM Both tower's have small window's next to the corner that start at the exact same hight, when we get another 4 floors this will be almost confirmed as a twin.

AltinD June 15th, 2005, 03:59 PM ^ No doubt those two towers are structural twins. Is just to be seen if they'll be identical twin towers, or will have different facades and/or height and roof structures.
Dubai-Lover June 15th, 2005, 08:49 PM i really hope it will not turn out to be a clone
please make it at least taller or shorter and a skybridge please
not sure if two different facades would suit the towers
SA BOY June 16th, 2005, 08:47 AM with those columns its going to be big
Citystyle June 16th, 2005, 11:17 AM i really hope it will not turn out to be a clone
please make it at least taller or shorter and a skybridge please
not sure if two different facades would suit the towers
change the window colour, and make a different roof feature.
DUBAI June 16th, 2005, 04:36 PM what about if it merged at the top like the dusit does.
dubaiflo June 16th, 2005, 08:28 PM that would be amazing
i would like those three to have the UAE flag colours...
Dubai-Lover June 16th, 2005, 08:34 PM why do you say there are 3 all the time?
there are only 2
Krazy June 17th, 2005, 02:01 AM there is an empty plot on the other side of damas too and they are hoping it's gonna be another identical tower there
Krazy June 17th, 2005, 02:03 AM June 16, 2005
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y215/vtalibaba/ad46c035.jpg
Dubai-Lover June 17th, 2005, 10:48 AM great
half a floor in half a week
this one will catch up with the original damas tower soon
DUBAI June 17th, 2005, 10:40 PM it is definatly a twin, you can see the central balcony and side windows are both the same as Damas.
dubaiflo June 19th, 2005, 01:39 PM why do you say there are 3 all the time?
there are only 2
how krazy said there is another plot on the other side of damas, it could be the same tower once more.
but actually i am not hoping that , because i want the ET to remain the only twins...
i don't even want this one to be a damas twin...
Trances June 19th, 2005, 01:45 PM same here how cheap
cop out to build the same one twice hope there is some way to save these two if they end up the 'same'
Krazy June 19th, 2005, 02:01 PM If there are indeed three, we will have four identical towers including Chelsea... it's gonna spoil SZR big time.
Trances June 19th, 2005, 02:21 PM could not be any worse than the set of identical low rise towers just up the road from these
hint hint
AltinD June 19th, 2005, 05:19 PM ^ and those are even 5, so one more. ;)
dubaiflo June 20th, 2005, 05:01 PM maybe there will be a 4th damas ;)
DUBAI June 21st, 2005, 01:41 AM rename thread Damas 2?
Krazy June 21st, 2005, 09:33 AM We still are not 100% sure, I still have my doubts if this is an identical tower. We will wait for the board.
Work on the 4th floor started now.
DUBAI June 21st, 2005, 12:09 PM ^the fact their is no board is a masssive pice of evidence to suggest that it is another damas tower.
all sites need this board, and looking at the site, the three plots are all behind one single hoarding.
since the first 4 floors are the same, how many floors till we admit it?

hmm......
Dubai-Lover June 21st, 2005, 12:30 PM again
the structure will be exactly the same
the only things which might make it look different is name, height, facade and details
maybe we should ask the workers?
Trances June 21st, 2005, 02:16 PM even if height, facade and details are diff then can it stil be twin ?
little brother then ?
DUBAI June 21st, 2005, 04:23 PM im sure it will be called Damas, if it s anything different it will be Damascus.
dubaiflo June 21st, 2005, 05:14 PM i will call you damascus if it will be anything different :D
Krazy June 26th, 2005, 03:24 PM Three floors are up and work has started on the fourth.
Krazy June 26th, 2005, 03:26 PM I will try to stop at the site and ask the workers about this one.
Dubai-Lover June 26th, 2005, 08:19 PM no language barrier! :D :)
i also tried to ask a few workers some things, but.....
AltinD June 26th, 2005, 09:13 PM ^ Yesterday in Marina I saw many buses full of Chinese workers comming from the Palm or Pearl site and going towards the 5th interchange.
Good Luck bridgeing ''language barriers'' with them.
Krazy June 28th, 2005, 09:12 AM That's why I said let me handle the talking Dennis :D, no language barrier in my case.
BTW, four floors are up and work has started on the fifth floor!!! This one has to be the fastest rising tower in Dubai right now!! Unbelievable speed!!
dubaiflo June 28th, 2005, 06:40 PM one floor a week, a little bit faster maybe.
not impressed
Krazy June 29th, 2005, 10:28 AM Once again, you're too spoilt.
dubaiflo June 29th, 2005, 02:28 PM no i am just replacing juiced, but i will stop no , because he is back already

did you manage to ask some workers?
Krazy July 12th, 2005, 02:32 PM lol, nope
beiklopa July 17th, 2005, 05:21 PM looks exactly the same, the question is , how many floors its gonna be ?

Citystyle September 2nd, 2005, 09:22 AM Looks like that photo is hard to say but in damas thread its spot on.
AltinD September 2nd, 2005, 10:59 AM Of course is a twin, ther's no doubt about it.
Trances September 2nd, 2005, 02:38 PM i gotta say
seems no other choice but to agree now
dubaiflo September 2nd, 2005, 02:47 PM already got that confirmed!
Trances September 3rd, 2005, 10:34 AM i know but there is still a chance cladding could still change the towers from twins to brothers ?
AltinD September 3rd, 2005, 11:30 AM ^ Or the roof structure.
However, in any case, it will be safe to say that they are "structural twins".
dubaiflo September 3rd, 2005, 02:48 PM would be nice if the colour is different!
Marco Polo October 1st, 2005, 11:27 AM Any updates on this one?

DUBAI-Boomtown June 18th, 2006, 02:13 AM The little brother of Damas Tower! Sweet! :booze:
How tall will the Tower be? Perhaps 180 meters.? :)
Is the roof the same from the Damas Tower? :)
Stephan23 June 21st, 2006, 02:27 PM Is this number 2 also so high as Damas 1 or smaller??
I know, twin, but..... :hm:
Krazy June 21st, 2006, 02:44 PM it should be as tall as damas 1... no one knows for sure so we'll have to wait n see
dubaiflo June 21st, 2006, 04:14 PM still hoping for a skybridge.
DUBAI-Boomtown June 22nd, 2006, 02:31 AM Yes!

AltinD June 22nd, 2006, 06:13 PM Cladding has started here. The tiles are light wheat beige colour. Glass panels, which instalation started more then 2 weeks ago, are identical to those of Damas 1.
Stephan23 June 22nd, 2006, 07:01 PM Cool, than we can hope that the tower will be the height of Damas 1 :applause: :rock:

Dubai-Lover July 11th, 2006, 01:38 AM ha
design changed
they decided to put a helipad on top instead of the arch :(
dubaiflo July 11th, 2006, 11:06 AM i don't think this is a helipad.
not sure, it looks similar to No1 DM ,as said in Damas 1 thread already.
still, much better than having a very similar design on both sides of the roads.
AltinD July 11th, 2006, 11:18 AM ^^ It is not a helipad, it is a Health Club with 2 levels and panoramic views. I think even on the project board is included HC.
DUBAI-Boomtown July 11th, 2006, 10:30 PM A health Club - oh boring!
Better a helipad or a roof like the Chelsea Tower!

Dubai-Lover May 11th, 2007, 06:47 PM sorry to reply so late altin, but i missed it
the hotel will be called angsana hotel & suites
it has 816 rooms
the project is in both towers
i'm not totally sure but it will be hotel only, although 816 rooms is quite massive for a spa hotel brand ;)
Julito-dubai May 11th, 2007, 07:38 PM Description

AltinD June 22nd, 2007, 08:41 PM I still wonder if these two will be considered twin towers, or just identical ones. It should the later and they should be considered 2 towers, since they are totally separated and not connected at all ... unless they do something on the ground level.
I estimate the height on top of the pinnacle to be 210 meters around.
colemonkee June 23rd, 2007, 06:02 AM The top of tower 1 already looks pretty dirty. I wonder if they have a plan to clean that part. It doesn't look like there's a boom up that high.

Pea-Tear-Griffon November 5th, 2007, 01:09 AM Even if these are very similar to the Chelsea tower across the street, I think that these two are much better considering that they are twins and have slightly better facades and roof features. Never thought I'd say this, but well done Damac. Now get moving on Lotus Heights, Park Towers, Damac Heights, etc. and people may start taking you as a serious and reputable developer.
Sander- November 5th, 2007, 01:32 AM Futuristic, majestetic, aesthetic. Highly valuable addition to the SZR skyline!

Stephan23 November 13th, 2007, 07:43 PM ^^Yes they do.
Almost ready btw. :okay:
Blizzy November 14th, 2007, 09:39 AM Judging from the speed, I feel pity for that sole worker on that tower. He must feel lonely, being alone on the site. Unless of course he is not alone, and they are just being a bunch of lazy bastards, which is why it's taking them almost six months to finish the top part!
The towers look good, nonetheless.
AltinD November 14th, 2007, 10:14 AM ^^ I wish you to be up there and experience first hand what does it mean.
Blizzy November 15th, 2007, 12:37 AM ^^ Oooh, so you are happy with the progress?
They are slacking off. Just compare this to Rose Rottana.
