The Green Line will offer a very attractive alternative to cars, buses, microbuses and taxis, but will also be complementary to other means of transportation.

Majid Al Futtaim Group announces $1bn investment in 'New Damascus'
Majid Al Futtaim Group, the region's premier developer of shopping malls, has announced plans to invest an initial $1bn to build Syria's largest ever mixed-use development.

Strategically located in a residential part of Damascus, known as 'New Damascus', the company plans to build a landmark master-planned development, which will serve as a new 'town centre' for local residents.

The project's site, located in the Sabboura Yafour district, is strategically positioned on the Beirut to Damascus Highway and identified as a key growth corridor by the Syrian government.

Once complete, the development will cover a floor area of one and half million square metres including a two-level shopping centre (200,000 sqm), hotels, serviced apartments, Souk, offices, mosques, alongside a range of villas and apartments.

The mall, anchored by a Carrefour Hypermarket, will include a 14-screen cinema, Magic Planet, leading retailers, an international food court and a restaurant precinct.

The project's design, unique in Damascus and Syria, is centered around a new 'Town Centre' concept, providing a focal point for local families. Majid Al Futtaim Group has also announced that 30% of the site will be kept for landscaped parks, gardens and pedestrian and cycle paths.

The group has already entered into discussions with leading international retailers to be a part of the first stage, which is due to complete in 2012.

Commenting on the announcement Anders Moberg, Majid Al Futtaim Group's CEO said, 'Our commitment to Syria is significant and we plan to offer the people of Damascus the same fantastic choice in shopping and entertainment as everywhere else in the region.

'Our centres are places people do more than shop, it's where they go to share time with family and friends. We have always cared to provide the highest standards in all our developments and Syria is no exception.

Maybe if the administrators create one, people will get involved and start posting. "If you build it, they will come!"

But it will be better if anyone post some photos from the sight.

[Icymaniac]

I'll be in Damascus later this month so I'll check out the project and see what, if anything, is going on. Also, I guess I'll keep whoever is interested in this project informed once I'm there and if I can I'll take pictures of the sight to post.
