UAE-based Azizi Developments has announced that its mixed-use community development – Azizi Venice – last week set a new record for the largest continuous concrete pour ever completed in the UAE. A 22,000cu/m raft was poured for 56 hours – starting from 26th July until 28th July, on the Azizi Venice lot in Dubai South.
Founder and Chairman Mirwais Azizi commented on this unique achievement: “The quality and speed at which our developments manifest from vision into reality fills us with immense pride. This extensive, record-breaking two-day concrete pour, which is the largest of its kind in the UAE, exemplifies – and serves as a testament to – the fast pace at which our latest master planned community project, Venice in Dubai South, is being constructed.”
On completion, Azizi Venice will feature more than 36,000 residential units across more than 100 apartment complexes, and over 109 ultra-luxury mansions. For the project, Azizi is taking on the role of master developer, in charge of constructing the buildings, roads, and all the infrastructure.
The Azizi Venice community is distinguished by its extensive crystal-blue water lagoon, with multiple beaches. The lagoon surrounds the complete range of condominium buildings, villas, and mansions, as well as the adjacent leisure, retail, and commercial spaces.
At the heart of the development is a luxurious, ‘greened’ pedestrian-friendly boulevard, which will be open-air in the winter and glass-covered in the summer, to ensure a temperature-controlled space, with year-round activities for residents and visitors alike.
