MAIN BOULEVARD SECTOR C RENDERING

http://www.lahorerealestate.com/ads/public/img-1122443988.jpg



construction is going on very fast, some of the road is complete.

http://www.lahorerealestate.com/ads/public/img-1122441268.jpg

are they going to built the buildings shown in the rendering?

yep

I have heard the next phase of Defence housing in Lahore is going to be built in India, is this true?

I wouldnt consider the rendering much more than a mere guide. Yes a few tall and flashy building may spring up on either side of the main boulevard ... however the renderings are extremely poor quality. Also the rendering shows an 8 lane highway going through the main boulevard, with 4 lanes of side/service roads. Whilst the picture of whats actually been built shows just a dual carriageway running through the main boulevard ....

well yes the highway is u/c right now, you will get a better view of it from other angles, right now it is a 6 lane road, they may make more.

are they going to built the buildings shown in the rendering?

No, also the buildings on Independence Drive (A part of sector C main boulevard) are not real, they are just examples.

i was like if they built these buildings then that part of city would be no less then Dubai.

all those buildings said by bahria will be built, they will be made by BT themselfs

This is the offical topic for projects and updates in Bahria Town, Lahore.

all those buildings said by bahria will be built, they will be made by BT themselfs

I dont think so, if they build all of the buildings what will they do with them as these buildings dont look like residential buildings.

But Independence Drive can be successful as land there would be cheap, the price of land on Main Boulevard Gulberg is 20 crore per Kanal. Still Independence Drive will never take off until LRR is fully completed and Bahria Town sector C is developed.

Bahria Town Lahore -Development work update on July 27

Dear friends AOA,

Today I would like to show you how fast development work is going on in Bahria Town Lahore.Most housing scheme developers are not able to the work in months that Bahria Town can do in days.Look at these pictures for speed of work and look at them for quality of work that is unheard of in any scheme in Pakistan.Bahria Town is developing Bahria Town Lahore even better then its past phases in Rawalpindi.They have learned from past 10 years experience and they want to make Bahria Town Lahore the best place to visit and live for many years.Bahria Town want to build sector C Lahore to show this art piece to every Pakistani citizen they are the best. They will use sector C to exceed DHA Lahore in popularity contest so thay can launch many more mega projects. Bahria Town want to show Lahore's they can build entire sector c that is much larger then DHA phase 6 in size in less time then it will take for DHA to build even main blvd in DHA phase 6.remember DHA phase construction started 2.5 years ago and Bahria Town sector C construction started just 6 months ago. Sector C already have most utilities( electric- Gas line-sewerage-phone lines etc) already laid out. Many roads are ready for carpeting BTW many already have carpeting.Water tank more then half done. To many things happening in sector C at very rapid pace. Hard to keep up.

Here is another one ( what is that yellow stuff in front lawn of this school.I hope they are not people from space to make work happen at this pace in Lahore :P, We Pakistani brother are used to wait for years to have a school AFTER the scheme is completed.These guys in Safari Villa will have their school ready BEFORE then start to move into villas )

This is main blvd of Bahria Town sector C on July 26, 2005


I just wish DHA can pick up speed too and work this fast on main blvd of phase 6 to complete it and rest of DHA 6. It 3 years and I am still ashamed to show pictures of even main blvd of MY DHA phase 6 to my friends :) . I don't understand why it cant be done faster?. I feel Bahria Town sector C will be completed and thousands people will be making homes there in less then two years well before DHA phase 6 because it will cost far less to buy land and build a home in Bahria Town then DHA 6. DHA 6 cost 70 to lacs today. Bahria Town sector C will cost 24 lacs today ( Including all installment that people have 21 month still left to pay ). Yes DHA have name and shopping mall. But guys what is happening in Bahria Town is not some thing ordinary. They are making this scheme the trend setter for Lahore . An example that Bahria Town will be using in all its future TV and newspaper ads. trust me I feel bad that DHA is loosing the ground here. And DHA is still not waking up to what is going to happen in Lahore in less then 2 years time. Talk of the town in Lahore will Bahria Town NOT DHA if nothing is done to pick up the development speed by DHA.


I know many guys will say you cant compare DHA with Bahria Town. But let me say once again I have three times more investment in DHA then in Bahria Town. Since I have stacks in both I can compare them both better then many others who don't have plots in both places I love DHA 10 times more then Bahria Town but I cant deny the fact that Bahria Town is getting more and more more room in my heart then DHA every single day.I don't like to sell DHA properties to buy Bahria Tow because I have enough properties there and I don't see other place that is better then these two . It makes me sick to think that DHA may not be holding the crown in next 10 years ( unless some one acts fast like DHA Islamabad and start contacts rolling and start letting public know what is being done and how long will it take to finish ONE PHASE that was started 2.5 years ago. I was hopping to see golf course schools shopping centers in DHA phase 6 today when I bought DHA plot to build a house.I don't want to build in any older phases because I think DHA 6 will be the best phase of all location wise and look wise when it is completed in 2-3 years. ) . Many friends asked me to update pictures of DHA 6 too but truth nothing was changed to show you new pictures. Lets hope both DHA and Bahria Town make our dreams come true. Lets hope and pray every person in Pakistan can have their dream house.



Here are few more pictures.All the pictures in thumbnails under this post with road constructions are from Bahria Town Sector C only.Other are Safari Villas area in Bahria Town sector B.

sector b is allready completed and safari villas will be completed soon and handed over to there owners on 15th august by pervaiz musharaf when he visits BT.

sector c will be completed in 1 more year, bahria town is the best and only companie in pak that start there projects on time and finish on time (before time actully).

DHA's roads are very narrow and were being built without any sense.Keeping in view the traffic increase in lahore, after some years they will have to suffer a lot that is unimaginable. There wont be anytrees to be demolished for road projects, but only houses on the both edges of the roads. Will they demolish millions' houses? Even a lay man can understand these things why cant they who are called developers and engineers or architects? the space between houses are too narrow like Samanabad and iqbal town which are the settlements of 50s when the traffic load was 50 times less. Allah give them wisdom to develop societies with sane decisions.

Farhan, Will they ever build a Bahraia town Karachi.. And will the every build one around Peshawar????!?!?!
Infact are there any developments in Peshawar DHA or otherwise?

Bahria town Karachi would sell like hot cakes!!!

how many bahria towns are in pakistan overall.

how many bahria towns are in pakistan overall.

currently 2, in lahore and rawalpindi, but there dream is to make one in every city of pakistan.

Farhan, Will they ever build a Bahraia town Karachi.. And will the every build one around Peshawar????!?!?!
Infact are there any developments in Peshawar DHA or otherwise?


they had allready purchased alot of land at hawks bay in karachi, but plans were delayed and they plan to make one there very soon.

and yea there will be a DHA and BT in peshawar, but not anytime soon.

BT are more interested in expanding there current towns and then they plan to launch one in sialkot.

I have seen pictures of Bahria Town Islamabad en Lahore. Those houses are relatively cheap comparing wih European houses. Now I was wondering, I have like 10 lakh Pakistani Rupees. Can I buy something in those towns? From upto plots to houses.

Man I love this Malik dude. He is an ambitious man and look at what he's done.

The best thing about Bahria Town are the sidewalks and wide inner roads. All over Lahore and the rest of Pakistan (yes including defence), all the inner roads are one lane, if not smaller. On top of that there are no sidewalks and people are walking on the roads, which are full of on-street parked cars and cars trying to get out of the mess they are stuck in.

Malik deserves a round of applause for not making the same mistake like the other stupid planners. :applause:

Not sure but you might be able to get a 10 marla plot for that amount there...

Independence Drive's skyline's gonna rock!!!

omg i kind a feel jealous and happy for lahore right now

does any body know when its goin to be completed???? its pretty cool

its extreamly green.

those swiming pool houses are looking cool

its like a whole freaking city....so damn cool and very well organized. i know this question has been rasied before but just want to ask again are the buildings shown in the rendering about the independence drive gona be built by bahria town and look like they are in they are in the rendering or left as plots for private connstructers to build????

Nice! this could be a whole small town by itself!
Its good to see a modern styled suburban development taking place in Pakistan.

Mr. Choudry, if you have lots of pictures, I am sure lots of people will appreciate if you can post some of the good ones here.

Wow. I am glad good world class development is taking place all over Pakistan these days.

its like a whole freaking city....so damn cool and very well organized. i know this question has been rasied before but just want to ask again are the buildings shown in the rendering about the independence drive gona be built by bahria town and look like they are in they are in the rendering or left as plots for private connstructers to build????


bahria town will start the trend by building a few towers there and then sell the rest of the plots to big companies,

btw this is just bahria town which is about 3000 acres, imagine bahria lake view city, 50 000 acres :runaway: :eek2: :runaway: :eek2:

btw this is just bahria town which is about 3000 acres, imagine bahria lake view city, 50 000 acres :runaway: :eek2: :runaway: :eek2:

Bahria lake city hasn't started yet, has it?

There are 24 commercial plots of 36 Kanals each on 4 km long 220 wide road called independence drive.That drive will have all high rise buildings.Mr Riaz Malik sahib CEO of Bahria Town is seeing many billions Rs ( amount of the actual worth of Commercial plots in BT Sector C .24 plots 36 Kanal each is a lot of Comm land. Not 1 marla plot is sold yet from comm area and will not be sold until you see Sector C looks like heaven on earth so Mr Riaz can ask for huge price tags for these high rise projects).People will be will to pay a lot more when they will see all 5000 safari villas and sector C fully complete withing 18 months to 2 years ( 1500 safari Villas are now almost ready to be handed over to public.Some were already given to owners ).Most likely couple of Dubai groups will launch these high rise buildings projects in 2006 or early 2007.

Sector C is promised to be completed in 18 months from today.But looking at development work pace.It should be done well before that time.Hospital Safari mall school community club ( Rs 3 lacs tag per head :) ) and many other facilities are 95% complete.

For the friend who wanted to see more Bahria Town pictures.I applogise I am unable to post images here myself.I am too busy these days .You can see them here and feel free to post them here.If you dont I will do that in free time.

are they doing somthing in karachi ?

the bahria town people are without any question doing a great job...but they are killing of the good arable agricultural land surrounding lahore. what they should do is build highrise apartment complexes. i mean they have the money and those type of buildings will not just save space but also add so much more beauty to the city, i mean just imagine nice tall modern buildings surrounding the lahore and RawalPindi instead of more and more housing schemes. ..well its just my thought i may be wrong..what do you guys think???

i would love to see some PROPER skyscrapers in lahore/islamabad.

heres the pic for everyone to see..

Too bad it's 40 minutes away from Lahore though...

great update choudhry!

its 30 minutes away from gulberg,

the bahria town people are without any question doing a great job...but they are killing of the good arable agricultural land surrounding lahore. what they should do is build highrise apartment complexes. i mean they have the money and those type of buildings will not just save space but also add so much more beauty to the city, i mean just imagine nice tall modern buildings surrounding the lahore and RawalPindi instead of more and more housing schemes. ..well its just my thought i may be wrong..what do you guys think???


so you would have agricultural land instead of urban estates.

current citys are not planned properly in pakistan, they have narrow roads with no footpaths, with no infranstruchure in place you think high rise towers will look good. it will just conjust the city even more.

with the current house demand and house shortages, these estates is what is required, making apartment complexes in the allready overpopulated areas will make them even more over populated, so its good to spread the city out.

bahria are doing the correct thing.

Too bad it's 40 minutes away from Lahore though...

Why is that?

40 minutes away from lahore, weird, i always heard it was in lahore :weird:

I have tried to mark all these location and size of these schemes on a sat image

Wow.. Cars that are PARALLEL parked! Thats a first in Pakistan...

40 minutes away from lahore, weird, i always heard it was in lahore :weird:

Actually its a suburb of Lahore, 25 Km from Kalma chowk (considered centre of new Lahore) and about 45 Km from Lahore High Court (official centre of Lahore from where all distances are measured).

i have a huge update on bahria town in lahore and rawalpindi with rendrings, hopefully will post it tommorow, just need to scan the pictures.

BAHRIA TOWN SECTOR C SHOPPING MALL

http://img283.imageshack.us/img283/4451/small7ak.jpg

^ Which mall would be this one? Is that taken from Bahria Times?

no its from the brouchure, its a mall in sector c

btw does anyone know how to stick 2 images togeher, cos i have a few more big pictures which were double paged.

Place them next to each other and save them as one file. It should be done like that.

on which programe is that

wutz bad about the 40 min man??
the city centres never remain the same. You should look where Bahria Town will stand from 25 years from now. Its gonna b the next city centre. Schemes like Model Town, Tax Society and Cantt were once the end of the city, and now they are engulfed into the main area. It might be 40 min or more you think from now, but that part of lahore is going to be more developed, greener, peaceful and a standardardized place to live in in near future.

Lahore has very very bad planning at the moment.

Can anyone get the satellite images of the bahria town lahore??

its just that private developers are taking over and the goverment isnt doing much.

Government development includes hell of politics and less of oppurtunities, facilities and relief to the ppl. On the other hand many private developments are not safe, have got slow paced developments and lesser facilities. Only a few private investors in Pakistan are helping improve living standards. Lets c wut EMAAR has got this time....it will provide more competition in the housing sector once they begint their development programs.

Every department of Pakistan is overruled by the one things and that is politics. People over here are still conservative and think narrow. Even look at DHA developments in the Phase 1-4. After so many years of development and establishment of these 4 phases, now a days the main road is being widened, making a possibilty of 4 lanes on both sides, hence resulting in removal of green belt in the middle and surrounding road area. If DHA has developed such a good scheme they should have thought about the demands n needs of the space requirement of the coming 25 years atleast. If in suppose 10 year time, Defence roads have fallen short and narrown due to increase in traffic, i wonder how congested the road are going to be once the phase 5, 6 & 7 are developed!!! This is just an example of the what we thought of a very developed housing scheme.

The only problem in our country is that the people try to force their own ideas into other peoplez business. If architects, designers, planners, and engineers are given the space and freedom required we would not have such problems in our society. If we ever propose something good like planning smth out fer the next 25-50 years, the ideas are simply rejected. Developers and investor just look for the short term lum sum profit of their own and after taking out their profit leave the societies to rot. On the other hand the development programs of the government are undertaken usually far more after the problem has occured in the society. We do not look into the future while planning out things. Taking examples of places like Mazang, Ichra, Choburji, Samnabad, GulshanRavi, Baghbanpura, Mughalpura etc these places are like rotten
egg. The government projects are taking place at snails pace and even if they are completed they dont last for a much period and begin to deteriote. The above mentioned places face problems of pollution of air traffic , sanitation, congestion, urban flooding and not much is being done. We should not forget that these places will always remain part of the old Lahore and if these spaces are not improved, then in the next 25-50 years they will turn into shanty town. I visited a few months back to the OLD SABZI MANDI of lahore and i swear it looked nothing like a city. Picture i will post later but if you guys ever get a chance visit such places and compare that part of lahore with the newer one.

The city of Lahore exisits for more than 500 years and the future demands should be well undertaken before making any further developments.

i have a huge update on bahria town in lahore and rawalpindi with rendrings, hopefully will post it tommorow, just need to scan the pictures.

Well come on then...we're all waiting.

wat dnt you understand by tommorow.

ok thats 1 day fine. wait 2 days now/

^ I have heard Samnabad was once thought of highly just like DHA these days.

BAHRIA TOWN LAHORE PROJECTS


THE SPRINGS
COMMING SOON
- It looks like these 2 images havnt been stuck togeher properly, but you get a good impression what it would look like. It would have a 18 hole golf course and many high rise apartment towers. the oval shape will be a huge market and it would have a big high rise tower in the center, unfortunatly it was nestled between the pages when i scaned it and never came out. The tower is very moderen and unique looking and looks like one of those big silver pipes on factories.

How big r THE SPRINGS in area...any idea pakboy?

huge, full details will be availble later, i emailed the marketing manerger of bt and he told me that this is nothing, bahria have more land then what they have sold, so we are gona see big massive projects later on, sector d is suppose to be a manhattan.

i also asked him why independance drive is only 4 lanes, 2 on each side and he said it is 220' wide it has two lanes,side walks and then service lanes on each side.

does anyone know how wide the main boulevard in gulberg is.

Pakboy the part that you described 2 lanes on each side IS NOT Independence drive.Its road that connects sector b with sector C.

Independence drive is 4 KM 220 feet wide road that will have 24 plots of 36 kanal each for high rise buildings and malls only among many other facilities.

ye but in the pictures the enterence gate is show right infront and the enterence gate is on independance drive.

btw i asked the question to someone in bahria and he said its 2 lanes and will 220 ft

people in the west also have to dry there cloths and they dnt do that.

And maybe you havent seen the council flats around Britain....

pakistan is not in the west but dubai, abu dhabi, singapore, etc arnt either. all there posh places dnt have nikkers and pants hanging from there balconys.

and dnt even compare bahria to council flats, council flats are rural areas of UK, bahria town is one of the poshest in pak, dnt even out them in the same line. if you want to compare something to council flats of britan then compare them with shahdara, harabanspur, thokar etc.

I have heard the next phase of Defence housing in Lahore is going to be built in India, is this true?

In India? Its going to stretch across the border? Is that really a good idea?

These are nice pictures, haven't seen these before. I don't reaallyy agree with everything Bahria does planning wise but you can't say anything about their ability to come through on projects. When they put out renders and a completion date, that's probably what you're going to get.

If they could just add a more personable face to their neighbourhoods, they could be the best residential developers in South Asia. I don't know if it's because it's brand new, but the long rows of cookie-cutter design homes, security post at the front, the imposing (and confusing) entrance.. I know security is an issue but I think it could be handled better and much more attractively.

I find that Bahria still has an identity issue, where the Bahria name is bigger than the homes they build. The gardens/fountains/showy landscaping is the good result of this. The bad comes in the form of unnecessarily grand entrances, long straight rows of homes without trees in front (that would hide them), "Bahria Town" stamped on everything from the Post Office to the roundabouts.. there's definitely an excess that does not really benefit anyone, nor is it attractive.

Anyway, I don't want to rag on them too much, relatively these are fine developments and the landscaping is fantastic. In future developments I would like to see a few feet more given to the front of the homes to allow for trees to line the road.. probably the most aesthetically pleasing thing you could do to a residential road.. plant trees.

BTW another thing I like about developments in Pakistan over the West is that Pakistan does not place a great emphasis on backyards. I think backyards privatize families and keep them away from developing a neighbourhood atmosphere. I'd much rather prefer a community park or public space, easily accessible by all homes, in the middle of the community.. like in this development.

I wonder how far they are with BT sector C. It is the biggest sector and I heard that there were problems. How much has been done?

I never said its low quality, I just said its tacky! Egyptian and Pakistani are two cultures which are worlds apart and they just dont go together. I can surely say that I would not live in a community modeled around ancient egypt with signature cookie cutter bahria houses.

Bro, EGYPTION THEME is everywhere.. not just in pakistan..

But the houses does not look like egyption theme hehe

It is nice though :)


Is it now? :tongue3:

Doesnt look that bad :dunno:

pictures are 8 months old, i have heard they are completed but for some reason, bahria has still not started selling them.

which sector are they in? are they anwywhere close to the safari villas?
Villas look stylish but I fail to understand why the hell is malik riaz bent upon bringing all the worlds wonders into his housing society! its not just cheap, its ridiculous. It has spoilt the otherwise decent housing scheme.

Must say, the guy had guts to do such a thing in here. Surprsingly, quality of these things looks good too, except for the obelisk. You don't usually see statues in Pakistan, that too of 'firaun'. I'm waiting for the time a Mullah finds that out and blows them up.

ok suddenly they all move to next page,

can mods delete above post and chane topic title to #Lahore: Bahria Town


Done :cheers:

Bahria projects look good but unfortunately they are very slow.

I just dont understand what people are so mad at? I mean its his money so who are you to complain? If he wants to put up sculptures of his erect penis in the town square, he is going to do it anyway no matter what you say. If you dont like it then just dont buy the damn thing.

Personally I sort of like it. Its definitely weird but weird is good.

Judging by your avatar, only you could have said that!

:laugh:

Can any mod merge the other Bahria Town Lahore topics with this one. At the moment there are 5 topics or something scattered.

I'll trade those statues for trees any day. Other than that, an okay project by Bahria.. trying to emulate Emaar in very paindoo fashion but hey, they're removable.

I agree with Boonga! Why import this stupid Egyptian theme, when we ourselves had one of the greatest civilizations (Indus Valley) the world has ever seen. Why not something that reflects our heritage. I am sick and tired of these developers blindly following concepts that don't have anything to do with our culture.

I don't know we should import this theme or not... but yes it's true that this theme has a lot of demand as the king of Saudia Arabia has bought all of it for 13 billion Rs :ohno:

It's over for us Pakistanis :wave:

Doesnt surprise me, considering the Saudi's awful taste. :no:

^^ I have no idea what that meant.

^^ I have no idea what that meant.

You didnt understand what I said or what Funk said?

Funk, how can the King "buy" it?

I mean the whole project or just those sculptures?

Guys some moaning, get a life!

las vegas have some egyption theme, why can't pakistan!! :)

Guys some moaning, get a life!

las vegas have some egyption theme, why can't pakistan!! :)

Oh for the love of God! Its spelt Egyptian! :sly:

What will the King do with it? How do you know he bought it?

and why would the Saudi king want to buy something which has Egyptian sculptures? seems odd and unlikely that he doesn't buy something big like the Karachi Water front of Diamond Bar City, this seems too small.

thats crap, :bash:
why would anyone pay $200 million for a bunch of houses.

i have seen maliks interview and he never said anything like that

and why would the Saudi king want to buy something which has Egyptian sculptures? seems odd and unlikely that he doesn't buy something big like the Karachi Water front of Diamond Bar City, this seems too small.

maybe after making a wife collection in saudia arabia he wants to make one in pakistan now, his scheme can be used to house his wifes in pakistan, i wonder what he will call the project 'my pakistani wives in egypt'

whats the fuss about... come to think of it as an investment in pakistan 12 billion Rs. is a heck of amount ppl... 200 million $ is cool.... let him do what ever he wants with them..!!

looks like a very cool development... but one pic says of u/c theater or a cinema.. actually its a shopping mall... having a super store and other retail outlets..!!

^^^

its not, its a theater and cinema, its says it in big letters on the other side of the building

Dam... need to update my self...!!

Safe Behind Their Walls
Security and luxury drive sales at an unlikely gated community in Pakistan.

By Joe Cochrane | NEWSWEEK
Mar 3, 2008 Issue | Updated: 11:32 a.m. ET Feb 23, 2008

It's easy to forget about political assassinations, fears of loose nukes and the specter of Islamic militancy from a bench in Hill Park. Nestled in an idyllic neighborhood where children play in the streets and homeowners stroll to the local health club or mini-mart, the park and its manicured grass overlook a sliver of a vast gated residential development of the sort you might see in southern California. But the area, named Bahria Town, is located just outside Islamabad. At 45,000 square acres it is, according to splashy international ads, the largest private development in Asia, and despite Pakistan's well-publicized political and security problems, people are signing deals for six-figure houses, condos and apartments faster than they can be built. "These are changing times for Pakistan," says Salman Ahmed Khan, the development's director of marketing and operations, whose main job is to court prospective buyers away from Dubai and to Bahria Town. "Pakistanis are traveling, they're seeing nice things abroad and we want to provide that for them at home."

This unlikely playground for wealthy Muslims is the vision of Khan's boss and father-in-law, Malik Riaz Hussain, a 59-year-old billionaire Pakistani contractor. Set between the capital Islamabad and its sister city Rawalpindi, Bahria Town is the "masterpiece" of his 40-year career, a $6 billion project he has funded solo to avoid having to deal with outside investors. Its nine phases, too vast to fully appreciate without standing on one of the plateaus that overlook them, will one day mesh together into a planned residential city for 1 million people. The project broke ground in 1996, and already, many of the 50,000 luxury properties in the development are owned by wealthy Pakistan expatriates who swooped into Bahria Town after 9/11 to buy second homes amid fears they would be driven out of places like London, New York and Los Angeles. Equally important was the security and serenity that Bahria Town provides, which drew Pakistan expats and a smattering of wealthy Arab Muslims away from places like Dubai.

The complex offers amenities (24-hour armed security, schools, hospitals, a fire department, retail shopping, restaurants and entertainment centers) that go above and beyond those in many of the gated communities that have become so popular in countries from the United States to Brazil. Given the nation's security issues, it's especially easy to understand why the rich here want to cloister themselves. Rival Pakistani developers, including one owned by the military, have begun copying Hussain's vision, constructing their own gated communities in the suburbs of major Pakistani cities such as Karachi. Hussain himself is developing a second such site in Lahore, where former prime minister Nawaz Sharif already lives in a gated community called Model Town.

Hussain's original inspiration for the mega-community came from the pre-planned town of Reston, Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C. Materials and design inspiration have been imported from everywhere. In the center of roundabouts sit giant Spanish fountains costing $500,000 a pop; the main streets are lined with palm trees brought in from Thailand; grass for the local golf course comes from the U.S. state of Georgia; the education expert for the 1,100-acre university being built is from Seattle. "When I see America, when I see Britain, when I see Turkey, when I see Malaysia," Hussain says, "the only thing I think is, 'Why not Pakistan?' "

This is Hussain's key notion—that Bahria Town is a world away from Taliban and Qaeda militants, the assassination of Benazir Bhutto and weekly suicide bombings. "This is the real Pakistan," Hussain told NEWSWEEK.

But the real Pakistan also has violence. According to the South Asia Terrorism Portal, at least 1,523 civilians were killed in terror-related violence in 2007 and more than twice that number injured. An additional 441 Pakistanis were killed in sectarian violence last year. While most of the carnage occurred in the volatile North-West Frontier Province, where Islamic militancy is strong, there were also suicide bombings in Islamabad and Lahore that killed dozens of innocent bystanders. It's no wonder those who can afford it are drawn to places like Bahria Town, which has retired Army officers as security advisers and former foot soldiers on its police force. And independent power supply and private street cleaners also save residents from maddening daily electricity shortages in cities like Islamabad and garbage fouling the streets.

Hussain's focus and energy toward providing all this are limitless. He's up at his Islamabad residence by 6 most mornings, receiving project managers, local politicians and friends for breakfast before driving out to the project site in a heavily armed motorcade. He spouts off facts and figures about the development with encyclopedic knowledge, and says he frequently changes plans for the phases still being developed to make them better. He added an exact replica of Trafalgar Square at the Bahria Town development in the city of Lahore.

Hussain is familiar with reinvention. Although born into a wealthy family, his father's contracting business collapsed, and he was forced at the age of 19 to start his career as a lowly clerk in Islamabad. He remembers vividly, three years later, having to sell some family silverware just to buy medicine for his sick 2-year-old daughter. "I've never forgotten being poor," Hussain says, pointing out that Bahria Town also includes thousands of low-cost prefabricated houses. Still, there's no missing the fact that Hussain's dream city is mainly for upper-class Pakistanis who "want the good things in life," says Khan, the marketing manager.

Hussain says Bhutto's death has only increased his motivation to push forward his groundbreaking development projects. He claims that Pakistan's instability has not affected sales at Bahria Town. Pakistani economists like Qaisar Bengali aren't so sure: "There are many housing schemes stuck in the middle because real-estate prices have dropped in the last year or so." Nonetheless, Hussain says he's optimistic about the future, especially given that last week's national elections were more peaceful and transparent than people had expected. A new civilian government will take charge in the coming weeks after more than eight years of military rule, which has stymied Pakistan's economy (it grew about 7 percent last year, trailing neighboring India by nearly two points). Corruption, kickbacks and red tape are rife.

Hussain himself maintains close ties to the military establishment; his early business success was due in large part to construction contracts with the Pakistan Navy. ("Bahria" is Urdu for "naval.")

But he and others hope the country is at a turning point—one that will fuel private projects like Bahria Town. Pakistan certainly has no shortage of natural resources or cheap labor; now that elections are settled, economists believe FDI will flow back into the country. Investors from the Middle East (including regional giant Damac, based in Dubai) have already been knocking on Hussain's door, looking to put money in joint ventures here. With the return of civilian government and the removal of the shackles of stringent, military-led development, Hussain is free to ponder his next megaproject: digging a traffic tunnel through the Margalla Hills on the northern outskirts of Islamabad, and putting up a new bedroom residential community in the valley on the other side. If he builds it, says the developer confidently, they will come.

Bahria town is great and it is low in trems of cost, it is exceptional in terms of design and stands out from the rest of Pakistani housing schemes.

update anyone?

this freemasonry thing has to be taken very very seriously, and i too agree for being against the idea.

there are atleast 6 billion jinns on earth. the satan is here for atleast 10,000 years. they dotn sit idle. they posses most of us and we dotn even know it. the artistes , architects, buissnessman and even generalsare mind controlled by them in way that they take specific decision based on their induced "waswasas".

i apologize for bringing in extremism and politics. but , yes...there could be thousand of other theme...like they could have copied some modern theme from amstredam or milan....or any other emerging architectures.

^^ 6 billion jinss :runaway:

well why do you have to copy anything, we have a rich history ourselves and can re-create that, like instead of trafalgur square bahria could have made jinnah square with a statue of jinnah there surronded by houses with mughal architechture.

The theme may not be exclusively Egyptian, rather Masonic. And this Masonic architecture is spread all over Europe and North America. The British brought free-masonry in to the sub-continent, and may be perhaps Malik Riaz is a mason. :lol: We are here asking the same questions that the Christians ask when they see an ancient Egyptian, pagan obelisk in the heart of the Vatican. Apparently, this is how masons across the globe communicate with each other - through art, masonry, architecture, paintings, etc. The masonic lodges in Toronto and Montreal share a similar architecture.

well i dont think malik riaz is a mason, he is just blinded like the rest of the world, apparently i heard the egyption theme was for some person in the saudi royal family.

by the way Behria town is still U/C or is it complete now?

I think Bahria town, Lahore is completed........

Now they are working on the Bahria town, Rawalpindi......

well i dont think malik riaz is a mason, he is just blinded like the rest of the world, apparently i heard the egyption theme was for some person in the saudi royal family.

Somebody lifted the ban on freemasonry in Pakistan, so there must be some influential businessmen around. Saud family is very corrupted, but whatever.

Yes, lets build every single community in Pakistan based on the same style, that'll look great :lol:

There are plenty of homes inspired by south asian architecture. There is a house almost completed on Khaiban-e-Ittehad that looks like a small Lahore fort.

Do you have any pics of those houses?
