DAMAC Properties awards $74.3mn contract for main works of Nice cluster at DAMAC Lagoons
The master community covers a total area of 43m sqft and is the developer’s latest luxury project
A $74.3mn contract has been awarded by DAMAC Properties to the China Nuclear Industry 22nd Construction Company for main works of the Nice cluster, at its DAMAC Lagoons master community development in Dubailand.
According to the developer, the scope of the work will cover close to 510 villas in the cluster, which will include features such as waterways and fitness arenas.
“After our recent contracts awarded for the Costa Brava construction commencement, we are thrilled to be announcing the start of works for the Nice cluster. We are most pleased to be keeping pace with what is one of our most exclusive community projects, given the scale of space and offerings we have in store,” stated Mohammed Tahaineh, General Manager of DAMAC.
In October 2022, DAMAC Properties awarded a contract for electrical substations to Danway EME and, later in the month, it said that the main works package will soon be awarded for its Cavalli Tower project.
DAMAC Properties said that the master community is its latest luxury project, and noted that it covers a total area of 43m sqft. The development is said to comprise a Mediterranean-inspired habitat featuring white sandy beaches, a tropical island vibe and other enchanting experiences, alongside aesthetically designed villas and townhouses built around one million sqft of lagoons.
The community is divided into clusters from the Mediterranean neighbourhood including Malta, Venice, Costa Brava, Portofino and Santorini. The Nice cluster is slated to offer a refreshing escape for those seeking the classic French Riviera vibes in Dubai. The residential development aims to be the adventure capital at DAMAC Lagoons, the developer noted.
The Nice cluster will also feature a Youth Hub, which will delight fitness enthusiasts with bicycle trails and a skate park, while those yearning for a quiet escape will find solace in the splash pools and beach area reminiscent of the idyllic French city, the statement concluded.
In November 2022, the developer launched a new luxury tower in collaboration with Zuhair Murad.
