Oh forgot to post it, the pic I took didnt catch my attention when I was preparing all the others for upload. You'll find it in the BC thread in a minute

Jodel · February 17th, 2009, 05:15 AM

Any news on what is happening?

After 2 months of frenzied activity the foundations have been covered in orange tarps. and there is no-one on site. Also work seems to have stopped at Abyaar site next to it (Pier 8)

Strange?? Just noticed post by Desert Diver on Feb 4th

Imre · February 17th, 2009, 02:30 PM

U/C, many workers there, PIER 8 as well.

Shahla Tower

Hi
Workers are for Park Island not Shahla Tower. I am looking over the site from my bedroom window (20th floor) and all is deserted, with exposed works have been secured by tarps. Will take a pic. and see if I can get it on here.

See also Pier 8 thread no workers since last week Jan.

(I thought they took the cranes, but they are obviously just about to be assembled - some day)

Today, seemed even sleepier than the other day

Desert Diver · April 2nd, 2009, 02:20 PM

^Well, its seems to go along with the rate of activities in this thread

Beppe786 · April 2nd, 2009, 02:21 PM

all covered up does that means its on hold?

Desert Diver · April 8th, 2009, 12:39 PM

Yesterday I went there again and took a picture. Its not worth posting, since nothing has changed - for almost a month now

jeetha · April 8th, 2009, 12:48 PM

No change for 1 month = On hold.

Josau · April 10th, 2009, 08:00 AM

The water pumps are running and you can see the occasional person or car there, but no work.

Josau · April 15th, 2009, 07:57 AM

When looking closely at the site, you can see that there is a leak to the Marina, they had to stop foundation and waterproofing. You can clearly see sand bags protecting the rest of the site from flooding. I suppose this is the reason for the halt. The pumps are working very intensely.

AppleMac · September 24th, 2009, 02:10 PM

Loads of workers pouring concrete today, so dont know if construction is back on or they are just stabilizing the site.

Dubai Skyscraper · September 24th, 2009, 04:19 PM

worg going on here now, it seems to be U/C again!

True Blue · September 25th, 2009, 10:28 AM

Yes that is the main pile cap raft being poured. Signs are good but they may just be protecting the reinforcement before the winter rains arrive.

We will have to monitor, but good signs.

Cheers Imre,

Looks like a change of contractor. Those are not Arabtec uniforms and the site offices have been changed. Could have renegotiated the contract with someone else.
