another tower next to AL-nasser towers is also in the same stage.

Behind AL-Nasser towers is Qatar commercial bank tower , they have just started construction of the first floor, for about a year and a half they were working in the bacement only, it is extreamly slow.

These three towers are all infront of Doha Cornich, at the begining of the towers area.

خمسة أبراج جديدة تنضم إلى لائحة «قطر كوول»

حققت منطقة الخليج الغربي في الدوحة تقدما ملحوظا على الصعيد العمراني لتضيف خطوة أخرى على النمو الكبير الذي تشهده دولة قطر‚ ويشكل مشروع نظام تبريد المناطق التابع للشركة القطرية لتبريد المناطق «قطر كوول» جزءا من هذا التطور‚ حيث انضمت إلى لائحة المباني والابراج المستفيدة من مشروع «قطر كوول» المبتكر‚ خمسة ابراج جديدة إلى جانب عشرة ابراج كانت قد سجلت على اللائحة في السابق‚

وأعرب السيد كولن غولدينغ مدير عام شركة «قطر كوول» عن فخر الشركة بالدور الأساسي الذي تلعبه في تطوير منطقة الخليج الغربي لمدينة الدوحة وقال: لدينا العديد من المشاريع العمرانية التجارية والسكنية التي سنزودها بطاقة التبريد‚ وموقعنا ثابت وقوي في عملية إرساء دعائم الانماء والتطور‚ ونتوقع ان نبيع كامل انتاجنا من الطاقة المبردة في غضون شهرين أو ثلاثة من الآن نظرا للاقبال الذي نشهده من اصحاب الابراج والمباني قيد الانشاء في منطقة الخليج الغربي‚

واضاف غولدينغ ان مالكي المشاريع العمرانية قد جذبتهم الصيانة المجانية والفوائد البيئية والاقتصادية التي تميز تقنيتنا المستعملة في مشروع تبريد المناطق‚ فيما سيتخلص النزلاء والسكان من الضجيج ويتحكمون بدرجات الحرارة بطريقة افضل في منازلهم ومكاتبهم مما يجعل من هذه التقنية الحديثة والمبتكرة الحل الأنسب لجميع متطلبات التبريد‚

ان المشاريع الخمسة الجديدة التي انضمت إلى لائحة المباني الفخمة والتي وقعت عقودا مع شركة «قطر كوول» تضم برجين سكنيين: برج الربان وبرجا إم وفندقين هما ماريوت كورتيارد وماريوت رونيسانس وبرجا واحدا للمكاتب هو برج لوتس‚ أما برج الربان السكني الذي يملكه السيد خالد بن محمد خالد الربان سيوفر 152 شقة مفروشة بالكامل مؤلفة من غرفتين وثلاث غرف نوم ومن اربع شقق دوبلكس‚ ويتبع للبرج موقفان للسيارات داخلي وخارجي يتسعان لـ 250 سيارة‚ كما يوجد في برج الربان ناد صحي وناد رياضي وملعب للاطفال ومسجد وبركة سباحة ومصطبة كبيرة مساحتها 450 مترا مربعا أمام المبنى متاحة أمام جميع السكان‚ ومن المقرر ان يكون البرج جاهزا بالكامل في شهر اغسطس من العام 2006 جامعا بين عناصر فن العمارة الحديثة والعربية في آن واحد‚

وقد صرح السيد كمال درغوث مدير عام مجموعة ربان للمقاولات والتجارة قائلا: ان الانضمام إلى مشروع تبريد المناطق يزيد بكل بساطة من الجدوى الاقتصادية‚ ونستطيع تقييم هذا المشروع بانه جيد ومناسب للمالك ويعفيه أيضا من أعمال الصيانة‚

أما برج إم السكني فيملكه سعادة الشيخ محمد بن سحيم آل ثاني ويتكون من 150 شقة مؤلفة من غرفتي نوم ومن 50 شقة مؤلفة من ثلاث غرف نوم‚ وجميعها فخمة ومفروشة بالكامل‚ كذلك يضم برج إم ناديا صحيا في الطابق الأرضي وسونا وبركة سباحة وسيكون جاهزا لاستقبال السكان في شهر مايو من العام 2006‚

وتعليقا على انضمام برج إم إلى نظام «قطر كوول» لتبريد المناطق‚ قال السيد نضال السمان مدير المشاريع في شركة كومودور قطر للمقاولات «ان عدم وجود وحدات تكييف مركزية على السطح يؤدي إلى تخفيف الوزن على المبنى بالاضافة إلى التقليل من الضجيج والارتجاج»‚

ومع الجهود الحثيثة التي تبذل للترويج لدولة قطر كوجهة سياحية مثالية ومفضلة‚ جاء بناء برجي الماريوت رونيسانس وكورتيارد في الاتجاه نفسه بحيث سيساهمان في إنماء الصناعة السياحية في الدوحة ويوفران المزيد من الخدمات الفندقية للسياح والزائرين‚ يتألف فندق ماريوت كورتيارد ذو الاربع نجوم من 50 طابقا وسيؤمن للسائحين والنزلاء 204 غرف و127 شقة فندقية مفروشة‚ أما برج الماريوت رونيسانس فهو مصنف بخمس نجوم ويتكون من 50 طابقا و258 غرفة‚ تملك هذين الفندقين الواقعين بجانب السيتي سنتر‚ شركة الريان للاستثمار السياحي التي يملكها سعادة الشيخ فيصل بن قاسم بن فيصل آل ثاني‚

ثمة برج آخر يقع بجانب السيتي سنتر ويملكه سعادة السيد يوسف عيسى الجابر‚ وهو برج لوتس للمكاتب الذي سيضم بين طوابقه الخمسة والعشرين أكثر من 100 مكتب‚ وستتيح هذه المكاتب لشاغليها فرصة التمتع بمناظر كورنيش الدوحة والخليج الغربي من خلال الجدران الزجاجية التي تميز هذا البرج الذي يتخذ من زهرة اللوتس شكلا له‚

وفي السياق نفسه قال السيد نيكولا جروج مدير المشاريع في شركة إم زد آند بارتنرز: مع اختيارنا نظام التبريد الذي تقدمه شركة «قطر كوول» بدلا من نظام التبريد المتعارف عليه‚ نستطيع توفير ما لا يقل عن 8 الاف متر مربع من المساحة التي يمكننا تأجيرها‚

Good for Qatar, promising Projects

ALMUHANNA COMMENCIAL TOWER infront of Kahramaa tower (AL-Sulaiti tower) and Sheraton Hotel, the sight has just been fenced and work has not started yet, it consists of 4 bacement floors, 1 ground floor + 29 floors.

if you can get me some full signboard photos with render, details and companies i could add them to emporis!

تعتبر شركة رتاج للتسويق وإدارة المشاريع أحدث الشركات الوطنية التي اقتحمت بقوة قطاع الاستثمار السياحي والفندقي.. حيث تستعد الشركة لتنفيذ وإدارة عدد كبير من أضخم المشاريع السياحية والفندقية لتساهم بذلك فيما تشهده البلاد من تطور سياحي وعمراني. ولدت شركة رتاج كشركة مساهمة مغلقة عملاقة، حيث تعود ملكيتها لمجموعة من أكبر وأبرز الهيئات والشركات بالدولة، وتتوزع ملكية الشركة على وزارة الأوقاف، ومؤسسة عيد الخيرية، وشركة الجزيرة الإسلامية وشركة عقار، ومؤسسة الأمراء، وقد استطاعت الشركة التي لم يمض على إنشائها أكثر من عام أن تحقق أرباحا منذ الشهر الأول لإطلاقها، حيث وصلت قيمة المشاريع التي تتولى «رتاج» تنفيذها أكثر من 400 مليون ريال.
تركز «رتاج» جهودها على تقديم مفهوم جديد وعصري للخدمات والتسهيلات الفندقية، وتهدف استراتيجية الشركة إلى إنشاء مجموعة فندقية متكاملة تعتمد مفهوم الحفاظ على البيئة، وتدرس الشركة حاليا اعتماد أحدث المعايير الدولية في قطاع البيئة فيما يخص المفروشات وقوائم الطعام التي تقدمها مجموعتها الفندقية وصولا إلى دراسة توفير أنسب معدلات الأكسجين داخل غرف ومرافق الفندق وفقا للمعايير التي تتطلبها منظمات وهيئات البيئة العالمية.

وتخطط الشركة لافتتاح ثلاثة من فنادقها قبل نهاية العام القادم وهي فندق برج رتاج الجزيرة بمنطقة الدفنة وتبلغ طاقته الاستيعابية 462 غرفة وجناحا وفندق برج رتاج بطاقة 356 غرفة وجناحا بالإضافة لرتاج للأجنحة الفندقية بجوار مستشفى حمد.

ومن جهته أوضح السيد عبدالرحمن النجار المدير التنفيذي لشركة «رتاج» التي تأسست في الأول من مايو من العام الماضي أن الشركة استطاعت أن تحقق جملة من الأهداف التي أكدت وجودها القوي بسوق الاستثمار العقاري الذي يحقق معدلات نمو فاقت كل التوقعات.

وقال: نتبع استراتيجية خاصة لتنفيذ أعمالنا حيث نعمل كمستثمرين ومطورين للمشاريع العقارية والاستثمارية، ويتضح من اسم «رتاج» الذي اخترناه للشركة ويعني «البوابة العظيمة» أن جميع المشاريع التي تمر عبر هذه البوابة تتحول لأنجح المشاريع، وذلك بفضل الكوادر التي تحرص الشركة على ضمها، حيث يتمتع جميع العاملين بخبرات واسعة في القطاعين الفندقي والعقاري.

وأضاف: إن الهدف الرئيسي من دخول الشركة قطاع الاستثمارات الفندقية يتمثل في إيجاد بديل عصري من أفخم وأرقى المجموعات الفندقية صديقة البيئة والمعروفة بـ «Enoiroment Friendiy» لتلبية الطلب المتزايد على الخدمات الفندقية وسنقدم من خلال منشآتنا الفندقية الفخمة خدمات جديدة ومتميزة تعتمد عدم الإضرار بالبيئة التي نعيش فيها وكذلك الحفاظ على صحة الإنسان الذي نتعامل معه وبالتالي نوفر للضيوف والزائرين مزيدا من الخيارات الجديدة والمتميزة.

وبسؤاله عن كيفية إدارة المشاريع الفندقية قال: تخطط الشركة لإدارة جميع مشاريعها الفندقية وذلك من خلال ضم مجموعة واسعة من الخبرات المحلية والدولية التي لها باع طويل في قطاع الإدارة الفندقية، وبذلك تتحقق لنا منظومة متكاملة من الخدمات، بداية من الاستثمار العقاري ومرورا بتوفير الإدارة العصرية لهذه المنشآت ذات الطابع السياحي لتقديم جملة من الخدمات الجديدة والمتميزة في عالم الفنادق، ويؤكد خالد حواشين مدير التسويق والمبيعات بشركة رتاج أن الشركة تستعد لافتتاح عدد من المشاريع الفندقية المتميزة التي ستضيف معايير جديدة للخدمات الفندقية المتوافرة حاليا.

وأضاف: تستعد الشركة لافتتاح أول مشروع فندقي لها تحت عنوان رتاج للأجنحة الفندقية الذي يتكون من 54 جناحا فاخرا مزودة بأحدث الخدمات الفندقية العصرية، حيث تتكون الأجنحة من غرفتي نوم وصالة استقبال وحمامين ومطبخ وتعتبر من أكبر الأجنحة الفندقية المتوافرة بالدوحة، ويتوافر لعملاء رتاج للأجنحة الفندقية مجموعة من التسهيلات الخاصة مثل النادي الصحي وبركة سباحة ومجموعة من المطاعم والمقاهي الفاخرة.. أما المشروع الثاني فهو تحت التأسيس ونطلق عليه حاليا برج الجزيرة وسيضيف للطاقة الفندقية حوالي 462 غرفة وجناحا بجانب التسهيلات الفندقية المتعارف عليها من فئة خمسة نجوم، أما المشروع الفندقي الثالث فيحتل موقعا متميزا بشارع حمد الكبير وهو فندق رتاج الجزيرة الذي سيصبح من أكبر فنادق الدوحة، حيث يتكون من 264 غرفة و88 جناحا كما تدرس الشركة حاليا التفاصيل الكاملة لإنشاء مدينة رتاج التي ستكون المفاجأة الكبرى للشركة والإضافة النوعية لخدمات التسوق بالدوحة.

وأوضح حواشين قائلا: إن فكرة إنشاء فنادق صديقة للبيئة تعتبر جديدة على الدوحة لذلك نعتقد أن رتاج ستوفر بديلا صحيا وبيئيا يناسب العائلات ورجال الأعمال، فالعالم يتجه الآن نحو كل ما هو صحي ومفيد لصحة الإنسان وقد نجحت عدة سلاسل فندقية حول العالم حيث اتبعت النظم البيئية والصحية في إنشاء وإدارة فنادقها، فنحن جميعا نحلم ببيئة خالية من الدخان والشوائب والخمور وبفنادق تناسب إقامة العائلات بها دون أن يخشى الوالدان على أبنائهما من التفاعل مع البيئة المحيطة، مشيرا إلى أن من بين أهداف الشركة الرئيسية التوسع إقليميا لنشر مفهومها الخاص بالخدمات الفندقية صديقة البيئة

Al sail residential tower: 30 stories, next to 44west bay residential tower, behind frensh embassy.

I also heared that there will be a modification in AL-Mohanna commercail tower, and old Kahramaa building (5 stories high; infront of sheraton roaundabout) will be demolished, maybe because no towers less than 15 stories high are suppose to be in this location.

Many other construction sights are there but with no names, no photos & no info.

I HEARED THAT THE GO AHEAD HAS BEEN GIVEN TO DEMOLISH THE RIDGES HOTEL AND THE BUILDING NEAR IT, IT WILL START NEXT MONTH, ITS SUCH A NICE HOTEL. MAY BE ITS A ROUMER ONLY?????????????????????

AL-nNakheel Tower: next to menistry of Economy & Commerce, also next to AL-Fardan Towers, it looks like 30 to 40 stories high, noinfo yet.

Al Dar is building it I believe. But to my understanding al nakeel tower was a completely different tower. One made of glass and was over 50+ high. This one is very different.

I think that you are talking about the Palm tower, and the look may change any time during construction.

Sweet pictures dude. :cool:

I love the fact that Doha isnt trying to build very tall towers. :) Not too tall, not too short. :D

I also think Doha is doing the right thing not building extra tall towers that dwarf the city and I think places that do sometimes regret it!

very nice projects

We are also building only 30-40 floors maximum, its the right way to go!

I've go more pictures for different under-construction towers..

Thanx Mohammad.. Will post more shortly stay tuned..

Well itll be their own problem if anything goes wrong. :D
I still doubt that anyone would build a tall tower in the West Bay area just because theres a policy abiding it (excluding Dubai tower). ;)

I found a picture of a new tower called alkhater hotel ..
http://www.w6w.net/upload/23-08-2005/w6w_2005082302391986b901f5.jpg
does any one hear of this project?

Never seen or hear about it before.
Tried to goggle it, but didn't come up with anything. Seems like something that came from Metropolis.

Many projects on the internet are still in the drawing or design stage and still yet to be approved. I suppose this is one of them.

Love to see it come up, but very uncreative design, i may add.

How can this hotel be opened in December 2005 and even the first floor has not appeared yet?!!
I thought this project has been canceled coz I heard about it 2 years ago and it supposed to be built next to the west by complex. but nothing came up there!

I found some pictures for a new project in Qatar designed by Faris Kapetanovic. It looks really amazing. But as usual, there are no information about it…it could be a concept and still not approved !

I know this project.
A local newspaper reported 3 years ago that it's for scientific researches. the location w'd be somewhere on corniche.

but as u can see, nothing turned into solid ground.

First revolving Restaurent in Doha to be on top of this Tower :banana:

:eek2: woOow :eek2:
it’s awesome ,especially the torch. I think it will be the biggest and highest torch in the world… coz I have never seen a torch like this height 300m
wow I like it .. it sounds good
:banana::cucumber::carrot:

so let us say bye bye to this amazing tower

the torch tower will never get off the ground. so, let's be more accurate and say bye bye to both towers!!!

LOL, I think that saves the Qataris a bit of trouble. :)

:badnews:

The sports city tower is currently under construction .Piling is completed . Six construct of Belgium is the main contractor ( in JV with Midmac) and M/s PROJACS is the Project managers of this project. This Tower is definitely a reality and structure is most likely to be completed by October 2006.Taillibert's concept was one of the many considered for the project.However the one I have posted above is the approved concept and is currently under construction.

somehow it'll end up just like Qatar national library.

If its going to get built, then I sincerely hope they do not build it near the bay. Three hundred meters are equivalent to almost one thousand feet. All of Doha would be visible. :rofl:

Mohammed as I said it is currently under construction!!!!! It is coming up in the sports city which is no where near the bay.I do not understand why people are still saying 'If', 'But' etc about this tower C' mon guys its being built. :bash:

Manojp mp,
I'm saying this bcoz many projects were given too much media attention & fuss, but unfortunately were either canceled or put on hold eventually. I'm talking about projects like the National Library, City Centre expansion (phase 2, 3, 4), and i can't remember some more right now.

on the other hand, i've looked @ the master plan of khalifah sport city & Aspire sport academy, and it didn't included this tower. unless they've decided in the last minute to build it, and that would create a major obstacle. of all the past planning experiences, we always think & decide @ the last minute, we never learn from our mistakes, and the result is more waste of time & money.

but i have to say that i disagree with Mohamad when he says that the tower shouldn't be erected on the bay. as a matter of fact, we MUST erecte it on the bay. u see, we in Doha need a landmark that can both works as tourist attraction & at the same time as a modern lighthouse, that can be seen from a far. i mean it sure fits, Jeddah has it's water fountain, Dubai has Burj Alarab, and Kuwait has it's twin towers.

anyhow, Manojp mp, i'll drive towards the construction site tonight in my way to Hayat plaza, and if the tower isn't being built, i'm not talking to you!! :(

Guys, don't you feel that the plan of the west bay area is not suitable for height racing?. As everyone knows that we have one of the most beautiful Cornish in the GCC .unfortunately, all the height racing building are going to be built there. All the buildings are very close to each other like the only land that we have is the West Bay area !!
I have to admit that our plans is really shit and you well see how bad it is in the next coming years… when the traffic will become the main problem there . At this time do you know what will happen? They will get ride of all the roundabouts and the green to change their shitty plans again .
I know this is another issue and it's not related to what you were saying, but I feel like I have to say what I'm expecting from all the things that are going on the west bay area.
This proved what you said that we never learn of our mistakes

I know some people working in ashgal and they told me that:
when they plan to make roads on the diplomatic area , they never put in their mind that this area is for a height racing!! And what happened to make them change their plan is when Shik Mohammed bin Rashid visited the emirates embassy , which located in this area. he criticize their plan by saying how could such a land that have a good commercial location to be devoted for embassies !!
as a result of this they change their plan … now the problem in this area is all the towers will be packed and the roads have just two paths each !!
see the pictures to know what I'm trying to say

Hey Wakrah,
I agree with you regarding city center & Library building.And you are right regarding last minute decision regarding Sports City Tower.It was indeed decided in the last moment and you wouldnt find it in the master plan of sports city.If you are going there , site is located adjacent to Hamad aquatic center right opposite to the stadium.In fact the area where it is being built was all Tiled as part of hard landscape and had to be removed 2 months after installation for this tower.Bad planning at its best!!!. So I am sure speak to me after your visit to the sports city.. cheers

Here are some pictures of Sports city tower..

I agree. You see, it wouldnt look abnormal to have a tall tower inland, nearer to the desert. But it will most definitely look abnormal for a person to build an 80 floor building adjacent to a pretty small bay. It isnt really nice, and it basically shrinks the overall size of downtown Doha. Also, please dont forget that the Doha bay is pretty small and yet many planes cross over it as they approach Doha international airport, so it does cause a great deal of danger for the highrise towers. As for the idea of the sports city tower, then Im glad it isnt built near the bay. :)

so, it should be added in emporis :)

Great, another stupied tower ! I swear I sometimes feel there are ppl sitting there with a magic marker and sketching up something overnight. Then they bring it to doha and tell the decision makers "look wow a european architecut did this and it will look great" then land and a couple of millions is dedicated to the project. No real study, no real research, no nothing, its like we will build it now then we will worry about parking, the traffic, the zoning problem. this isnt how cities get built !! and how smart building such a tall tower in a highly conjested residentail area, im sure ppl wont be happy about that. And there is no way in heck this will be built in time, unless they intend for it to be a "sucessful project" like the Losial MotoGP circuit.

we in Doha need a landmark that can both works as tourist attraction & at the same time as a modern lighthouse, that can be seen from a far. i mean it sure fits, Jeddah has it's water fountain, Dubai has Burj Alarab, and Kuwait has it's twin towers.


Exactly my thoughts, I think we need a beatiful 40 or so tower that sort of resembles a modern lighthouse and it could be our landmark, instead of the sheroten hotel.

lmao, Hahahaa, yeah...Its funny how the sheraton hotel has come to be a sort of landmark, or a sad excuse for a landmark in Doha...Not that we really have one in Bahrain at the moment, other than our pearl roundabout which is sorta equivalent to Dubai's has been landmark the clock tower roundabout...But its funny how a lot of ppl who know very little about doha, and who might have only visited it once or even not at all always recognize the sheraton hotel, as if it were Doha's landmark....Its nothing special, far from it...but it has somehow gained recognition...Sort of...Compared to everything else in Qatar...

[QUOTE=manojp_mp]http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/7074/dscn27132lu.jpg
:omg: this is the most spectacular tower i have ever seen it have , impressive architect :applause:

Acctually I beg to differ, i dont think the Sheroten hotel is a sad landmark for doha. It was built in 1982, and during the days most of doha was flat, so was most part of the region. The hotel, at the time was considered very tall and it was one of the very few if any pyrmid shapped building. Not to mention how many conferences and conventions, from the GCC meetings to the WTO took place in its halls. Thats why it has become to be a symbol of qatar. But i think we still need to upgrade to something newer !!

Aha, good to know..

A new tower in WBA
30 stories
http://www.w6w.net/upload/07-09-2005/w6w_20050907084655383c1204.jpg

the pervious photo is AL-Sail Tower.

A new tower is added recently, it is called AL-Reem Tower: G+19 stories just opposite AL-Udaid Tower On City Centre Rounabout

Beach Thower: 2 basment + G + 31 floors; near morrocan embassy behind AL-Udaid Tower; infrastructure is finished; maybe the will start buiding the basment floors now.

Doha Bank Tower: next to Kahramaa building, facing Sheraton Roundabout, they have started infrastructure work one week ago. No information is posted about it.

last night, monday, i passed by the general post office in west bay, and i saw the land from north & east of it is being fenced, as preparation for a construction site, yet no sign indicating what's going on. any infos?
Millennial, know anything?

Sorry I have no idea coz I'm in Oxford right now, studying :cry:…
But 2 years ago, I read an article about building a massive mosque near 2 the post office headquarter, so it could be this,:dunno:

I think its fenced for the national libary. Its been fenced for over a year but not work at all as I heard the design was flawed.

check it out.

Wasn't this supposed to be ready like this year or so.

Wasn't this supposed to be ready like this year or so.


Well, they announced that due to some technical difficulty, the Library will finish in 2008. They started the foundation works a while ago, but failed to go beyond it....

i doubt it's part of the national library's constrection site. the library's site is been fenced almost 2 years now, but this piece of land is huge & streches all the way from the general post office till the site of the library. a multi-story car park maybe?
wee-hooo!!

I doubt that area will be used for a car park. Its to expansive for a car park. It could be a new plaza of towers, maybe a new govt builging, or a museum. Someone must know ??

Don't know what the site next to the GPO is, but the National Library was designed by a Japanese architect along the lines of a similar structure in Japan. Taisei patented the erection methodology for the structure, but the contract in Doha went to a Turkish contractor with no such expertise. I guess the delays are caused by the Turks trying to subcontract to the Japanese but not being able to afford it because they were lowest cost bidders.

Qatar's biggest problem comes from going for the lowest bidder in every project! You get what you pay for...

i agree. we want grand stuff bay grand money.

It asked today about the fencing near post office, and I heared it is the site offices location for Qatar Library Project which will start in January 2006 and end in 2008.

So Qatar Library will be constructed, not like waht some people said, that it will never be done. we shall wait for 1 month and see if it will start or not

Barwa company which will start selling shares to qataries in 4th of December for QR 10 per share said it will start construction of a 100 stories tower near City Centre in June 2006.

great.

News just coming in about a massive fire in what appears to be the Al Nasser Twin Towers on the Corniche. One tower fully ablaze from top to bottom and the fire now started in the second tower. Bits falling off and threat of collapse reported.

Can't get out of the office to go and look.

Any more news/facts?

This will have a devastating effect on other projects if it appears that the fire service cannot handle a highrise inferno.

This is not good news at all! :(

A fire has broken out at a partially completed skyscraper in downtown Doha, Qatar.

The blaze erupted mid-morning on Thursday, sending thick clouds of smoke into the sky above the city.

It is unclear what caused the fire, although initial reports say sparks from welding work may have started the blaze.

Officials at the Capital Security Department said an investigation was under way and they would not release any details until that was complete.

Civil defence units evacuated construction staff from the site, and emergency officials say no injuries have been reported.

The building is believed to be part of the al-Nasr Tower complex close to the seafront Corniche area of the city.

Police have blocked roads around the site, causing traffic gridlock in much of the capital's downtown area.

Doha is in the midst of a frenzied construction boom on the back of surging economic growth and preparations for the city to play host to the Asian Games in 2006.

Most of the manual construction work is carried out by migrant labourers brought in from South Asia.

The hilton picture has been put in location near 4 seasons hotel, it dosn't kook very fancy.

a pic of the West Bay Residential Complex
http://www.al3nabi.net/upload/show.php?pic=86887

the Shangri- La and Rotana towers picture has been put in sight location near city centre today, you can see it going from 4 seasons hotel roundabout to city centre roundabout on your left handside.

Al Emadi Tower

Located in the business centre of Doha, the Al Emadi Tower is an 18-storey rotunda office building offering 18,000 square metres of space. The building features two basement levels and provides parking for over 200 cars.

“This tower has a radial plan and circular glazed perimeter, with an exposed circular core that appears to be scooped out from the main rotunda mass. It promises to be one of the more striking towers on the Doha skyline,” describes GHD’s Architectural Group Manager in the Middle East, Ihab Inany.

GHD was engaged by Mohamed Ali Al-Emadi to deliver the architectural design, engineering and documentation, as well as contract administration through to final completion.

Al Madar Tower

Unlike traditional office building designs, the floor space of the 24-level Al Madar Tower increases as the building ascends. The 23rd office floor is 17 percent larger than the second floor.

“The unusual cantilevered design is visually appealing and has also maximised the floor space in the building,” cites Inany.

Constructed on a relatively tight ground footprint of 3,479 square metres, the building will provide 16,000 square metres of floor space and parking space for 259 cars.

The facades are dressed with high-performance double glazed curtain walls with large louvres on the side elevations to reduce glare and heat load.

The design of this building is nearly complete. GHD is providing the client, Ali Abdullah Al Mashhadi, with architectural and engineering design services, documentation, tender process management and contract administration through to final certification.

I saw bargeel tower picture tow days ago, it is located behind dolphin tower which is opposite city centre.

few more locations have been fenced there but no information posted.

also I saw the location of Qatar cool project for cooling the towers, it is located behind old AL-salam tower or behind AL-Hudaifi tower.

Does anyone have any pictures of the progress on the Sports Tower in Doha? The last I saw it was about 30 meters tall. I would love to see them if there are any about.

Cheers.

I also think Doha is doing the right thing not building extra tall towers that dwarf the city and I think places that do sometimes regret it!

very nice projects

We are also building only 30-40 floors maximum, its the right way to go!

What's wrong with building tall towers?

The latest I heared that the second qatar tower (60 stories high) is cancelled because the owner did not like the design, I think the design is nice, but it is not economical, there is very little space in the top floors.
:no:

Thank god !!

No more buildings. But this one is kinda nice.

Don't you love the first one!!

The last two towers will be a great addition to the area. It will blend well with the fourseason towers in the backgroud.

WONDERFUL

I LOVE QATAR AND YOUR RULER IS VERY INTELLIGENT

I found some more nicer tower pics in the sight but I cant post them, maybe you can guys, but you have to search in the other pics.

Some towers look nice, others seem a bit ridiculous. It would be nice for Qatar to develop into a classy and elegant city like Paris, instead of taking Dubai's lead and becoming a Gulf Vegas. Anyways, I hope the Gulf States someday become one of the worlds economic powerhouses to rival Western Europe and the Eastern US seaboard.

The first building on the left is Commericalbank Plaza, followed by the Al-Nasr Twin Towers. You can see the Dafna towers almost reaching final height without the glass cladding. Also, the olympic tower is beautifully designed with the Asian Olympic Scheme 2006, and you can see massive construction near the Sheraton Hotel in the Far Left..

Dont you just love Doha!!

Mashalla. Bus i hate the dubai tower and barwa. I think they would ruin the skyline.

Mashalla, how cool. It must look 10 times better in real life

This is the closeup of the 30 story Qatar National Olympic Commitee Tower covered in special Asian Games colors which apparently costs millions of dollars. It looks even more wonderful in real life! Burj Barzan, all the Doha watertowers, Dana Tower, and some minor towers are already painted in the Asian 2006 scheme.

No problem ;)

Wow, thanks Omar for the pics! Nice work man!

thanx for the picx omar too bad i`m in doha but i can`t take any, stuck at home >>broke my leg

WOOOOOOOOOOW. Are you kidding me. All this construction going on and nobody takes any pics. Mashalla, this is way much better than I thought it was like

Glad you like them guys...
Actually, I did nothing since I am not in Doha now. I found these photos on a blog and they were really worth posting here...

Anyway, I think that people currently in Doha should really start doing something! :D
Come on guys, go get some photos and let's make this forum alive and full of updated construction photos. Just like Bahrain or UAE's forum.

^^la 7ayata liman tunadi

doha become more wonderfull good luck guys your city is the futer of the gulf ;)

lol! I guess so...

Well, too bad... :(

The pics are a big surprise for me.
The entire skyline is under construction. Never excpected that Doha is this far.
Great pics from a great city. :okay:

What an awesomw bunch of pics.... there is so much going on all at once its hard to believe its sustainable let alone required in what is comparibly a small city. Having said that the work that is being done looks sensational, and will certainly enhance the cities skyline, and image.

Look forward to more updates as they become available.

Cheers.

This is the only way to get 10,000 extra hotel rooms for the asian games, build build build, the question is who will occupy them after the asian games?

Well, I think you got it all wrong. These are mainly offices and some are residential towers. These aren't hotels...

Well, I think you got it all wrong. These are mainly offices and some are residential towers. These aren't hotels...

I think that I'm half right, not all wrong

Geez, just about 1 and half years ago, I refused a job offer in Doha, because the place was dead and drab. Now its booming! I cant believe it. Almost want me to eat my hat!

I think that I'm half right, not all wrong
Well, please share the half right with us then... :)

Eh, Omar? Or has nobody ever told you that using someone else's material without a proper reference is plagiarism? ;-)

Well, I mentioned I took it from a blog, but didn't mention that it was from yours...
I am really sorry, I didn't think you would mind.
However, I will edit my first post just for you now...

I only have one question... How did you know?

EDIT: Edited the first post and uploaded photos elsewhere...

Omar,

No of course I didn't mind you using my stuff. I was actually quite flattered. I did mind you forgetting to reference me and linking to the pics directly though.
How did I know? Let's just say a little bird told me. That has taught me a lesson.. I guess I should put watermark logos on my pics! :p

:^)

Well, please share the half right with us then... :)

Well; Al-Asmakh tower near the 4 seasond hotel is a hotel, there is also, Beverly hills hotel, shingri La hotel in AL-Sadd, AL-Dafna towers is all appartments, the twin towers between AL-Asmakh tower and Biverly hills hotel is apparments, QIPCO twin towers which are nearly finished is appatments, and many others you & I don't know about, 44 west bay tower which is the tallest building in Qatar now is appartments, all these hotels and appartments will be used for the asian games other than Hamad Medical City which will be for the players.

ZX, Shangri-La hotel is part of the City Center Doha concept. However, most of the buildings in the Dafna area are apartments. The offices include the buildings near the Sheraton roundabout (From Barzan tower all the way to the sheraton roundabout). They include the Palm Towers, Salam Towers, Q-tel building, Bidaa Tower, the long cylinder tower, and ect..

Qatar Cat, do u have some other photos?--and thanks for the photos!

@zx
OK...
Thanks for sharing it with us zx. Now I got it...
Thanks for clearing it up.

@Halawala

Sure, no probs. Any preferences? :)

Ha, a little glitch.. I am not sure whether I can post images! And if I can - I don't know how. Anybody willing to help? :^)

That's some of the West Bay complex, including Four Seasons hotel tower.

My God! Amazing picx Qatar Cat.
Very clear and nice...

Please give us more photos of the west bay...

West Bay? OK. Will drive around on Friday, take some pix, post them here. The towers grow so fast - photos I took 2 weeks ago are already old!

Here are the two my hubby took from the roof of the tower they're buidling. Not as clear as mine, hehe, but then again, he's an engineer, not a photographer :p

Well, that would be AWESOME!!
10x!

And thanks for the "stolen" pics too ;)

Hey thank you sooooooo much Qatar Cat

Great pics there qatar cat.. on your drive about would it be possible to get one of the sports tower progress for me....? It would be eternally appreciated, and when I get there I'll shout you and your hubby a beer.. (or something else if you guys dont drink).

Cheers.

^^The sports tower isn't in the same area as the corniche. It's a little far from it. Ihave already asked a friend for this favor so I hope he listens to me

Cheers for that Dave... looking at Doha on google earth it didnt look that far away, but then I am used to travelling vast distances.

Anything would be good though.

Blaaaaaaaaaah I don't even know anything about the Sports Tower, let alone where it is. Directions? :p

Oh so I searched around for it, and apparently Doha Sports City Tower is that ugly stick structure coming up nest to my house, hehe. Photos? No prob. Going out now to get them.

=^..^=

Ugly?! Come on... It is going to look really good. And don't forget it will be 300m tall!

Anyway, we are all waiting "anxiously" for your photos... :)

Nice pics Q-Cat! But I think the pic is at least a month old. I hope you go get some nice pics and post them... Thanks

Its going to be awesome when its done.... dont let the ugly look now put you off.. I cant wait to get my bit going on it later in the year......

The beers offer is still on if you want!

Everybody keeps saying that it is going to be ugly. It looks very thin, but only for now I guess. Lets wait and see till after few months. I bet u it's gonna rock

Infrno,

Make it wine, and I might hold you to your word :p

Here are today's pix of Doha Sports tower... if the building on the pix is NOT Doha Sports tower - then I apologise, lol. The last pic was also taken today, when we were on our way home from photographing towers in West Bay (should I post these also, you think?). It was really dusty, so you can see the difference the weather change can make to the pix. Enjoy!

Woow, those are great. Thank you so much Qatar Cat, you are the best.

Did you also take any pics from the west bay area, as well??

Aye, that I did :p But unless I geroff the net right about now my husband will strangle me... and you won't get any more pix until I get back from the dead, at the earliest. So as we say patience is a virtue and the rest of the pix will be posted after dinner.

:D

Enjoy your dinner. I too have to go get something to eat b4 I go to the Friday prayer

Thanks alot Qatar Cat. These are some really good pics...

Please post the west bay photos as soon as you can.

yeah babyyyyyyyyy... amazing... a55 i really wanna go back to doha..

gotta run.. friday night gotta shave.. ;)

Thanks for the pics. amazing. the tower looks a lot taller than the last pictures I took which were almost 3 weeks old (I think). Fast improvement. the structures might look ugly now, but they will cover the concrete structure with a steel fascade and illuminate it like the Eiffel Tower. It will look absolutely superb. How many meters do you guys think it is so far? I would give it 90-100 meters now.

The West Bay pics I clicked today are now posted on my page, so you are welcome to have a look at them at Qatarcat's Blog (http://qatarcat.blogspot.com/2006/04/doha-construction-photos-part-ii.html).

Wine it is.......

Great Photos... and thank you so much for posting them for me. Its grown a little since the last lot. Its looking a little stark at the moment, but it will get better.... trust me.

Cheers.

Thanks alot for the pictures Qatar Cat... They really look great!

that thing is coming up prity fast "thats a first for doha" i guss its more than that its like 100-150

thanx qatar cat for the pics i wanna ask about the third picture in the blog is it hamad medical city ??

Yes, third and fourth pix are of Hamad Medical City - which is going to be the biggest in the Middle East, or maybe even the world, but don't quote me on this. I will get my hands on some fresh (insider) pix of the medical city structures sometime tomorrow, so stay tuned.

Oh and I really wanted to use this smiley, so my apologies whoever left a comment above - you are by no means a weirdo. Think of it as a smiley to myself :p

:weirdo:

If this is OK to ask...
Can you please take new photos of this tower too?
http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/7145/p210016813uh5rs.jpg
This is the tallest building in Qatar right now...

^^ its called 44 West Bay I think. Is it taller than Q-Tel's building?

Halawala, there are so many new towers coming up that I lost track of them. I am not sure which one this is! There is an insanely tall something being built close to the City Centre... Maybe it's the one you are talking about. I will drive around and search for the 44 West Bay :^)

And as for what is taller now - look below. This was taken 2 days ago, so it is pretty recent, lol.

http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/6278/p40400222ij.jpg

I love the way our skyline is maturing. I enjoy the clutter the beatiful buildings. Even though there isnt much of planning and zonning for these towers, but they just seem to fall in togther.

However Id still wish they'd be a certain style of design to all of them. Instead of just building anything which looks good in paper, developers should look at the potential buildings going to be constructed around thier towers and try to follow a design pattern.

Plus I would really hate to see dubai tower and palm tower and the likes being built. They will just dwarf the whole skyline and destroy our cornish by attracting attention away from it.

^^ its called 44 West Bay I think. Is it taller than Q-Tel's building?
Yes... It is, I think.

Does anyone know if construction has started on the 4-tower hotels around city center?

They are suppose to be 50-story high each.

Of course it has started. Ages ago. And as far as I know, there will be 5 towers around City Centre.

Check the last post on my page, Construction Part II (http://qatarcat.blogspot.com/2006/04/doha-construction-photos-part-ii.html) , you can see the side of a structure on the 7th image (with some workers posing for me). And you can also see the billboard sign of the 2 hotels on the same pic.

This is the one
http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/6665/p40400222ij6wz.jpg

QatarCat, thank-you for the pictures. It's nice to see some up-to-date photos. :)

OK Omar, will see what I can click of that.

In the meantime, anyone volunteer to do my laundry? lol

Hehe you should thank Omar first. It's because of him I am here at all :p

Thanks alot Q-Cat...
You are a blessing to this community... You really saved us! :)

Yeah that's me, hehe. A blessing.
But now I really have to run! Have a great weekend, ya'll. :runaway:

Qatar4Ever,

Here is a few days old pic I have, apparently, of the hotels around City Centre:

http://img123.imageshack.us/img123/5614/p21001750pd.jpg

weirdo!! :bash:
anyway

can u c the towers in doha is getting thinner and taller like hong kong hehe :cheers:

Plus I would really hate to see dubai tower and palm tower and the likes being built. They will just dwarf the whole skyline and destroy our cornish by attracting attention away from it.


I understand what your saying-- but many new buildings are the same size as the palm towers so they will fit in a new skyline. Cheer up, the more the merrier!

I really appreciate this Qatar Cat. Thank you for the great pics.
Qatar4ever I also think that Dubai Tower is a big mistake. Not because of the design or the length or anything like that It is just too embarrassing for us to admit that the tallest scraper in Qatar is Dubai Tower. Why don't they call it something else like Doha Tower for example, it would have been a lot better, and by that we also prove to neighboring countries that we are booming as well and that it is not just that Dubai has been expanding and extending their influence to reach out other cities in neighboring countries.

Hmmm I tend to agree with Dave on the above. But then again, there is Doha Tower already, and it's gonna be HUGE. Besides, I bet Dubai tower won't stay the tallest forever. There are bound to be bigger and taller towers in the future. If you ask me - it's insane. It is also insane that all these towers are in one area. No parking, and if past experiences mean anything - what about the possibility of electricity going down in the summer every now and then?

Doha tower? Is this a newly approved tower? Please share its info with us if this is something new...
Or... Do you mean the "confidential" Barwa tower?

Qatarcat.. welcome to the world of Qatar and our poor planning.

Lets not get too overheated by the Dubai Towers debate. A dubai company is building it, so it as the right to name it as it wishes. Besides there is already a 90-floor Doha Tower being built in Dubai Marina. So, guess were even...

Im starting a pressure group. The anti-dubai tower mujahdin. We will kidnap the construction foreman and hold him for ransom for 1 riyal. If no one pays we will shave the hair on his head and send it to his family.. moooahahhaha !!

^^^^Woow, what have you been smoking?

what about lagoon plaza tower ?? is there any improvement ?

what about lagoon plaza tower ?? is there any improvement ?
Well, when I was in Doha in February, I only saw the signs. I didn't see anything coming off the ground. I think they still have a long way to go...

well, untill 2008 they have long time to build 34 floors

ROTFLMAO.... that was a great way to start the morning with a good laugh....

Cheers.

Looking at the drawings I have here I put the sports tower at about the 180 - 190 meter mark.

Its getting there!!

so this is now the tallest structure in doha?? The Qtel building is 156 m. tall.. Cool

Doha tower? Isn't it that weird black Eiffel-shaped thing next to City Centre? Or did I get something wrong again (as usual)?

Sorry no pics for the time being, swamped with work and all...

Umm.. Qatar Cat, sorry but Im not sure your aware of how this acctually works.

No that you've taken a couple of pics for some skyscraper addicts and thus supported our very bad habbit, you will continue to post on at least a weekly basis all and every possible construction sites in Doha. If we do not get our pics we will send PM, emails, attack your blog and continue to nag until you provide with our fix of updated pics.

Yalla get your camera and take more pics...

lol! If she doesn't post more photos, we'll have to do it the "hard way"! :D

i prefer not to see any pictures for one or two more weeks so at least we can see some changes

although if you qatar cat already have some we wont say no :)

Hahaha now THAT gave me a giggle! :p

Now that I got you addicted to my pics, you will wait patiently for the next installment. Blackmail doesn't work with me :p

All and every possible construction sites in Doha?? Haha yeah RIGHT. But hey, I've got some neat pics from the crane, at a height of some 40m. So if you are nice and polite and everything, I will post them here over the weekend.

=^..^=

good job, QC. wonder if you could take pix of some buildings in other areas of doha (e.g: Almana tower in suhaim ben hamad road).

Wakrah,

Umm yeah I could of course, only I have no clue which building this is. Come to that, I have to admit that I have absolutely no sense of direction, and I have no idea what street my office is at. Besides, I don't even know what my compound is called. Now you want me to go to some STREET and find some TOWER, lol. If you could post a map with an arrow pointing roughly at where it is - I could get there. I can read maps (contrary to the populat belief that women can't, hehe). Or maybe there is some landmark on that street that I definitely know?

:^)

We are not blackmailing you. We are telling you !

:p
Patience.
Will post something tomorrow, and thanks for waiting :^)

of course women can read & they can make money whil doing so ( just look at Barbara Walters)!

anyhow, i wish i can supply you with a map of the tower's location, but when it comes to computers, i'm a total dummy. but it's located near ramada junction, opposite applebee's & toys'r'us, you can't missed it. and if you happen to be there, would you be so kind to take some pix of hotel Le Cigal, just few meters away.

thats Le Cigal and in the right side of the picture i guss u can see Almana tower
http://img330.imageshack.us/img330/8455/p40700451rk.jpg

i like it, thnx man.
too bad almana tower isn't visible, hiding behind aloubaildy tower, coz i really wanted to see how the consteruction is going.

ah u mean the twins last time i saw it they were working on the 3rd floor but that was long time ago b4 at least 3 months

Glad you liked my Le Cigale pic. I will drive around there and try and find the towers you are talking about. Don't know when, though. Hubby is off diving, and he took my car!

Salman, thanks very much for the pics, ya36eek il 3afya. By the way the first picture was of Laffan tower and Amwal tower. Thanks again bro :)

lovely pix salman, thnx.
wish you stopped the driver of the black landcruiser in pic no. 6 and asked him if the number for sale :)

lol i was thinking the same thing about the car number


give us ur dr number and ill have a chat with him.

mine is:11366x

by the way, salman, wish next time, when you take pix, try to roll down the car window, so the reflection on the window glass won't effect the pic quality. just a suggestion. meanwhile, keep them coming ya azizi!....more..more!!

man this pic looks like a different country from the last time i visited qatar. Doha is looking great keep the pics coming!

Oh and by the way whats the tallest building in doha current under construction
(aprat from the sports tower)?

anytime, happy to help
I didnt noticed the number till now and wakrah-wi-bas if there is next time i`ll roll the window down for sure :)

Skyline-BRN
the tallest would be dubai tower "450m" but for now "west bay44" is the tallest

thats weird qatar cat didnt show up for a long time dont u think !

by the way i heard that alfardan center "pic4 in the right side" will be demolished in the near future and eljame3 in the same road will be removed to did any one heard that ?

you mean Alfardan Ocean? didn't hear anything as yet, but if they will, hope not to expand souq waqif. this has gone too far, no need for such big traditional 'bra7ah".
