hi there, thanks for the reponse, will be interesting to se what percentage of the souk is open if it opens on the tiemscale you quote.
I believe the fitouts have been on going with many issues arising and he car park issues still have not been resolved. i would not be surprised if the opening is delayed further..... |

the ground floor of the souk opened yesterday and there are about 20 shops open. only gf open. the other shops are going through fit out or stocking shelves but it looks pretty good. there is also about 5 floors of underground parking with mawaqif outside. will see if i can get some photos tonight.

You are very lucky to have a view of these towers. I can't believe they will scrap the 3rd tower. I thought the core was like 10 stories already.

I went to the Souq recently and it's DEAD!!! There were barely any people there, the shops that are there are not very popular... It's sad to see billions of dollars wasted like that...

True, there is not a lot of foot traffic, but new stores and restaurants are opening every month. Check out Shakespeare & Co. - always a lot of people. The cupcake place as well, does pretty good. At least some real thought when into this and they didn't just build another mall. Wait until the towers are finished, and you have a decent potential customer base always around - it'll take off pretty well.
