View Full Version : #NEVER BUILD: BEACHFRONT TOWER HOTEL, 65F Hotel, 302m (Dubai Marina)
Krazy October 16th, 2007, 09:04 PM Here is a thread for the proposed tower across the street from Infinity since we know that there's definitely a plot here ... and we now have a proposed design from Cityscape
Picture taken by Imre:

Imre October 16th, 2007, 09:10 PM Beachfront Tower Hotel
AltinD October 16th, 2007, 09:12 PM ^^ It doesn't neccessarily means it will end up there though. What if it is nmext to Al Bateen Tower on the other (arse) side of the Marina?
Krazy October 16th, 2007, 09:20 PM ^^ it's possible, but somehow I find it hard to believe a 60+ storey tower would go here:

dubaiflo October 16th, 2007, 09:53 PM I would not definetly say it is there. but likely.. however it might not happen at all..
we will see about it. could indeed on the other side as well.
thedubailife October 16th, 2007, 11:06 PM In render, you sort of see plam in background which means Next to Infinity is a possiblity either way it's an interesting design, i suppose we have no more info.
NAZUK what you upto i thought you'd know more about this. Maybe you too busy admiring the DAMAC stand
malec October 17th, 2007, 03:03 AM Maybe someone could ask where this is located?
dubaiflo October 17th, 2007, 06:36 AM I'll do that today. but my priorities are on teasing the Nakheel people :D
thedubailife October 17th, 2007, 10:22 AM Well have a change of priorities plenty of things to tease Nakheel about i'd prefer you teased DAMAC
dubaiflo October 17th, 2007, 07:57 PM I've given up on those guys.. but i was saying at the nakheel stand, shortly before the lady gave me her Business card.. that Damac is worse than Nakheel :D
The only good thing about Damac is the.. MAC.
Imre October 18th, 2007, 04:28 PM asked today, opposite to Infinity , 250 m high, hotel,offices, commercial , will post more pics later
malec October 18th, 2007, 04:35 PM This has to be taller, it looks pretty huge to me. If it was only 250m it'd be ridiculously thin.
So by opposite infinity you mean right in front of infinity?
Imre October 18th, 2007, 04:48 PM next to the new bridge , they will have nice view of the Dubai Promenade.
250m was in the Atkins brochure.
thedubailife October 18th, 2007, 04:50 PM It does seam taller from the render, Whys it called Beachfront, there is no beach there it's the Yacht / Sailing Club.
Proposals come and proposals go we will see what happens
dubaiquote October 18th, 2007, 06:03 PM well im just lucky that i didnt buy an Infinity apartment with a Prime sea view because this would block that..
Krazy October 18th, 2007, 07:49 PM asked today, opposite to Infinity , 250 m high, hotel,offices, commercial , will post more pics later
so is it approved or just a proposal?
Imre October 18th, 2007, 08:23 PM approved, more info "soon"

confused... they said close to Dubai Promenade but if you see the Atkins brochure , next to Al Bateen Tower:)
so??

Krazy October 18th, 2007, 10:23 PM looks like it is indeed next to Bateen Tower... and as usual the 'experts' don't know shit about their own projects
AltinD October 18th, 2007, 10:25 PM ...What if it is mext to Al Bateen Tower on the other (arse) side of the Marina?

So? :D
Krazy October 18th, 2007, 10:30 PM So? :D
so..... somewhere right this very moment... True Blue is sobbing (about his beloved Jewels' and Dorrabay's lost sea views)
:tiasd:
Imre October 18th, 2007, 10:35 PM I think True Blue has a marina view apt.
maybe here:)

AltinD October 18th, 2007, 10:38 PM ^^ I don't think True Blue has ever claimed having a sea view. ;)
What actually made me think about an arse marina location, was the particular shape of the tower, offering absolutely no views over the Marina canal as if they intentionally didn't wanted any on that direction. This shape and positioning would have been pointless and very bizarre, if the tower had to be located in front of Infinity ... and Damac Heights (as well).
thedubailife October 18th, 2007, 10:41 PM One of the people in the conversation is actually stupid or been drinking and it's not IMRE.
It's got to be the 2nd loaction next to al bateen.....why well 1st like i siad before why would you call it Beachfront hotel and put near Infinity there is not beach there.
Also as demonstrated by Altin's comments about it's shape and the brochure this just confirms it really
Krazy October 18th, 2007, 11:28 PM ^^ I don't think True Blue has ever claimed having a sea view. ;)
Read my post again... not HIS sea view, rather his TOWERS' sea views that he did claim
True Blue October 19th, 2007, 12:05 AM My sea view is still intact! The sea view is from the bay window in the master bedroom and looks towards Palm JA, so this tower will not affect it. The sea view from the lift lobby will be affected but probably not for a good few years.
:) No sobbing then :okay:
True Blue October 19th, 2007, 12:06 AM BTW, Great pics Imre!!!
SA BOY October 19th, 2007, 09:04 AM Great views on DUBAL, terrible location for such a tower
AltinD October 19th, 2007, 10:59 AM ^^ They have absolutely no views over DUBAL. ;)
dubaiquote October 19th, 2007, 11:53 AM IMRE where did you take these pics from ?
Nice pics.. they will be really sort after in 50 years time when Dubai is a concentre jungle and no one can remember wot it looked like before all the buildings went expect a few oldies on some forum , in an outdated technology ...
Imre October 19th, 2007, 02:17 PM from helicopter.
dubaiquote October 19th, 2007, 04:21 PM wow Imre u have ur own helicopter or did u pay for the ride or was it from a mate or something
AltinD October 19th, 2007, 04:55 PM ^^ He said it was courtesy of NAKHEEL
dubaiquote October 19th, 2007, 06:12 PM cool sorry missed that ... anyway whatever they are great pics ... some of the best on this whole site..
malec October 20th, 2007, 04:06 PM http://i23.tinypic.com/x2lxxi.jpg
This is definitely more than 250m, you sure they didn't say 350m?
They also say 65 floors but including that top windowless section it has the height equivalent of about 80 floors.

what would the windowless section be used for anyway?
Imre October 20th, 2007, 05:32 PM they showed their brochure , there was 250m.
AltinD October 20th, 2007, 10:12 PM This is definitely more than 250m, you sure they didn't say 350m?

80 x 3.1 = 248 meters :D
bizzybonita March 19th, 2008, 08:58 PM who is the developer ???
dubaiflo March 21st, 2008, 02:39 PM And what will be the final location now?
AltinD March 21st, 2008, 02:47 PM ^^ The one shown on post 34 by malec: between Al Batten Towers and the Marina's arse end connecting to the sea canal.
charlie big potatoes March 21st, 2008, 08:19 PM ^^ The one shown on post 34 by malec: between Al Batten Towers and the Marina's arse end connecting to the sea canal.
Take it you dont own anything in THE ARSE END then!
AltinD March 21st, 2008, 09:39 PM ^^ I don't own anything. This is a architecture forum you know, not a real estate one so chances are the older members are just enthusiasts.
Stephan23 March 22nd, 2008, 12:32 PM ^^That's true Altin!!! :okay:
True Blue March 22nd, 2008, 12:47 PM ^^That's true Altin!!! :okay:
^^That's subjective.
Chances are most of "the older members" are owners.
If this is an architectural forum, how does the phrase "THE ARSE END" fit into object description?
If we want to keep going down this road will we have a "TWAT END" also?
Caesar7 March 22nd, 2008, 05:34 PM That design looks quiet horrible IMO - they couldnt think of anything else more attractive ? Also what is supposed to be on that top without windows ??? :ohno::ohno::ohno:
Stephan23 March 22nd, 2008, 05:43 PM ^^I like it very much!! :eek:
dubaiflo March 23rd, 2008, 05:13 PM Amazing I am here since more than 3 years..
and i would also call it the arse end.
charlie big potatoes March 23rd, 2008, 08:19 PM Amazing I am here since more than 3 years..
and i would also call it the arse end.
And who do you think is interested in what ou call it!
bizzybonita March 23rd, 2008, 11:34 PM Area of a theorists opposite directions ...
dubaiflo March 24th, 2008, 05:53 PM And who do you think is interested in what ou call it!
it seems you do :D
Imre December 13th, 2008, 06:01 PM any news here?
malec December 19th, 2008, 01:16 AM They say 302m here. I think it's much more likely.

bizzybonita March 14th, 2009, 05:00 AM Al Bateen Towers use in it as a plot storage as well as new bridge ! so it gonna be on hold for so long ...
TMZ March 1st, 2010, 06:03 AM its been almost a year since the last post here, is the any updates from anyone regarding this plot, if this is really going to be a hotel than its probebly going to be on hold for the next 2 years until the market somewhat starts recovering, IMO 5 years full recovery in Dubai
