More than 2,000 villas are at various stages of construction at the $6bn Akoya by Damac development in Dubai.
Work is also well underway on the Golf View Apartments, Golf Serviced Apartments and the Downtown at Akoya.
And all the holes at the Trump International Golf Course have been shaped, with holes 1, 5, 8, 10 and 11 grassed, cart paths installed around the course and shaping of the Academy course close to completion.
In addition, Emirates Trading Agency LLC has made good progress on the 132kv dedicated substation which will power the site.
“We are delighted with the progress made at Akoya by Damac over the past year and we look forward to welcoming the first residents of this exciting project early next year,” said Ziad El Chaar, managing director, Damac Properties.
“Akoya by Damac has certainly been challenging in size, scale and speed of delivery, but we have been delighted with the progress to date.”
The luxury golf community off Umm Suqeim Road in Dubai, which is almost 15% larger than Central Park in New York City, USA, is one of the largest master developments under comprehensive construction in the United Arab Emirates.
The 42mn ft2 community, includes an eclectic mix of luxury, limited edition, bespoke villas and mansions.
“Never before has there been such a varied mix of real estate, retail and lifestyle options all in one location,” added El Chaar.
Add the 94,500ft2 retail centre ‘The Catwalk’ including anchor tenant Waitrose, international schools, mosques, clinics and spas, plus the highly anticipated ‘Drive at Akoya’ – a 1.3km retail, dining and entertainment strip, and serviced hotel apartments from NAIA by Damac and Damac Maison: Akoya by Damac is set to become the focal point of the local community.
