#PREP: NAKHEEL MALL, 4F Mall + 42F Hotel, ?m (Palm Jumeirah)

Second Trump project for The Palm

Nakheel CEO James Wilson told the City Expansion conference in Abu Dhabi today about a second joint venture project with Donald Trump: the 1,000-apartment Village Centre at the end of the trunk which will also have three floors of retail. This development will be completed in December 2008 and have a dedicated monorail station like the Trump Tower (see News Feature).

we did not have a thread though.
but this is cheap branding, because these are Res apts and sold ages ago, maybe the best apts on palm jum.

now that i look at this render i can say plans have changed again

there now is a huge building with 4 wings, surrounded by 6 buildings which are the marina apartments

previously there was a dome with canals and berths for yachts, small shopping mall and promenades


all replaced by...... a massive residential building

i am sure the marina apartmens will remain, just the centrepiece has been (slightly) redesigned.

so i suggest renaming the thread and do we have a thread for the 6 marina apt buildings?

u can see it here.

this is taken of the most recent masterplan, however, they have indeed increased the floor count and redesigned it slightly.
