Client: United Development Company
Scope of Service: Masterplan and Design Services
Status: In Progress

The Abraj Quartier is a major component of an ambitious mixed-use development that will house over 30,000 people on an artificial island, “The Pearl”, constructed in the waters of the Gulf. A blend of traditional and contemporary design motifs and prominently located at the entrance of the causeway linking island and mainland, the Abraj Quartier consists of seven residential towers—five of 36 storeys and two of 40 storeys; the latter straddling the access road to the mainland and forming the “gateway” to the Pearl. In addition to the towers’ 2,000 residential units, the project includes 200 waterfront townhouses. Over 350,000 m˛ of building area and 160,000 m˛ of decked parking for 5,000 cars occupy this 13 hectare site.

no but in this case they have started the piling. I can see the machinery work every day and night. This is fast track. already overdue and it seems finance is there for this once unlike most of other projects in doha.
