The towers look nice. Can anyone (read: Riyadhi) point out the exact location on a Google Earth map?

I plotted the location according to the directions. I think that they'll demolish the current buildings on the same location.


Thanks Google Earth

Perfect Location!!!!

I always wanted that ugly building to get torn down. I mean, Centira and the surounding buildings look soo nice, and then the existing building on that plot just looks terrible!

GREAT NEWS>

You know, I could be wrong. According to the directions, the location is on the intersection of Olaya and Tahliya but I think they meant 'near' the intersection. I'm not sure if they would demolish the ugly existing building, but they would build it on the lot north of it.
