Today I asked the developer, that price is if you buy a whole floor...

Studio price starts apr. 560.000 AED.

Location: near Sky View, TGR plot.. they have a map but I was busy to visite their office. Maybe tomorrow...

If a studio starts at 560K what do you get for the advertised 420K, a garage space?

I did Googled the name and Katherine Price seams to be the American ex-wife of the Italian magnate Leonardo Mondadori of MONDADORI, the biggest Italian publishing house.

She still keeps the Mondadori name. I couldn't find anything else about her though.

9D is fenced as part of the Trident. they have their office cabins on that plot now.
