So they have started building those parts that contain the swimming pools. From far away they look pretty fragile.

Where? I can't see anything that looks like a swimming pool.

I think they only stopped to plan the next phase. the construction of that pyramid top part. Maybe it needs some planning before they can start with it and that means they have to make a pause...

The problem with this group (ETA Star/Star Giga etc..) , almost everything ON HOLD for them in Dubai and Ajman as well.

The site is dead , nothing happening there , few workers standing just front of the entrance and relaxing, thats all.

The Summit (opposite the 23 Marina ) also ON HOLD, Goldcrest Executive and Goldcrest Views 2 was very slow almost ON HOLD for a year but finally they finished those projects,their projects in Ajman are totally dead, no one knows what happened with the investors money.

They will put the board soon: Game Over .

DOn't be so pessimistic. If a project is put on hold when it's only at ground stage (like the twin towers on SZR, I don't remember the name of that project), it means, that it's cancelled, but for the 23 Marina, the development stage is much more important and the skyscraper is not very far from topping out.
It's also an important and quite emblematic project. Consequently, we can assume that developers will restart it as soon as possible.

First thought was DCE are leaving. Then I had a close look at the render and seems they have reached to top of the main structure.

There are 12 triangular balconies then the tower pyramids on top. These 12 duplex floors are now finished with some still needing the triangular balconies formed, but the tower looks to have reached the point where the slip form can no longer be used as it needs to taper to form the pyramid.

Panic over:)

Hircon repossess 10 apartments in 23 Marina

Company will complete the Dh1.3bn project in Dubai Marina by September

By Parag DeulgaonkarPublished Saturday, July 24, 2010

Hircon repossess 10 apartments in 23 Marina. (AP)

Hircon International, a Dubai-based real estate developer, has repossessed eight to 10 apartments in 23 Marina, a Dh1.3-billion project in Dubai Marina, and expects to complete the project by September, a top company executive said.

“We expect to get Dubai Electricity and Water Authority connection by August and then start working on the hand over of the units. Although there were reasons beyond our control, which led to delays, the building is now topped out.

We are working hard to hand over units as soon as possible,” Darshan Hiranandani, Director, Hircon International, told Emirates 24/7.

The developer has repossessed eight to 10 units only of investors who were not inclined to meet their financial obligations or eager to talk and work out feasible solutions.

“We had kept some units to rent, but those were sold and these [repossessed] units will now be rented out. We are not currently planning to sell them.”

Despite the law allowing Hiranandani to take investors to court and seek compensation for failure to meet obligations, he has no plans to move the court to seek compensation from investors whose units have been repossessed.

According to Decree No(6) of 2010 dealing with the Executive Regulations of Law No(13) of 2008, a developer is not required to sell at public auction if he completes more than 80 per cent of the project and may elect to terminate the contract and retain up to 40 per cent of the purchase price.

Spanning over a height of 380 metres, the 90-storey 23 Marina tower has 288 apartments and three penthouses on the top of the tower.

^^You are sure about all that or are you just spouting rubbish again????

The difference between here and the Select projects is that there are not a whole load of know it alls endlessly spouting rubbish about the likely completion dates or how it will be the best project in the marina. So I don't need to keep correcting the propoganda.

BTW, it should be a commendable project when finished as I expect it will be another to have a high quality finish, be a bit more unique and a departure from the mass market of cheap crap apartments coming soon in the tallest block.

Cladding of the podium has started. Grey marble-like large tiles.

They've also mounted a alluminium bar ornament on top of the white background ornaments covering the parking level. Not sure if it is supposed to hold other decorative material, or a light effect installation. Looks interesting so far though.

Site from the ground looked busy and was noisy, although from a distance the building didn't seem to progress a lot.

Hi folks,

Just thought I would let you know that I viewed a couple of apartments in 23 this afternoon. I saw a couple of 3 beds on 24th floor and the show apartment and I was generally very impressed with the fittings, bathrooms etc.

Looks like you've made a good investment there.

PS if anybody is looking to sell a 3 bed give me a shout :o)

New record for Dubai: 23 Marina is the world's tallest residential tower

Tower surpasses The Torch by almost 47 metres; Hircon to begin handover from August

By Parag DeulgaonkarPublished Sunday, May 01, 2011


Come August, Hircon International, a Dubai-based developer, will commence handover of 23 Marina, a 395-metre tower in Dubai Marina, which will then surpass The Torch as the world’s tallest residential tower by almost 47 metres.

“We have got the utility connections… we will have temporary power connection by next week. Snagging notice has been send to investors and we expect residents to move into the apartments by August,” Darshan Hiranandani, Director, Hircon International, told Emirates 24|7.

The 90-storey tower comprises 288 apartments and three penthouses. It has two and three-bedroom apartments and four-bedroom duplexes, ranging from 1,709 sq ft to 5,775 sq ft.

Earlier this week, Select Group, a private property developer, said it will begin handover of The Torch tower, a 348 metres (1,142 ft), 86-storey residential tower, in Dubai Marina from May.

It beat Q1 Tower off Gold Coast, Australia, (323 metres, 1,058 ft) to clinch the title for the world’s tallest residential tower.

In November, Tameer Holding President Federico Tauber told this website that the 107-storey Princess Tower and 91-storey Elite Residence in Dubai Marina will be handed over in the fourth quarter. The 414-metre tower has 763 units, while the latter 381-metre tower has 696 units.

According to Hiranandani, 23 Marina is likely to have an occupancy rate of between 50 and 60 per cent, as most of the apartments have been bought by end-users.

Cladding of the podium has started....
They've also mounted a alluminium bar ornament on top of the white background ornaments covering the parking level. Not sure if it is supposed to hold other decorative material, or a light effect installation. Looks interesting so far though.





..just walked by and saw the ornaments around the podium have been equipped with light tubes. :banana:

These pics don't tell anything about the douplex, which is huge and got one of those giant balconies with private pool, and won't come with the furniture.

IMO the price per sqft is actually quite attractive for the unit itself with the give floorplan (which is quite interesting) on such a high floor. the only reason why it isn't MORE expensive is the location: third row, and right next to a even bigger construction site for a couple of years to come. also not shown in the picture.

A multitude of contradictions going on there. The website shows the same photos. I also have no respect for people who post photos of views that are not even applicable to the apartment being advertised. e.g. on the website, SZR view. What the hell? Yeah maybe in a different building about 30km away. What is it with idiots and inaccurate advertising is it that hard to get an accurate photo??
