“Midtown will continue Deyaar's tradition of quality projects taking design-led luxury living to a new level in the region. This project will create a distinctive 'cultural' ambience that enriches the lifestyle of its occupants,” said Deyaar CEO Saeed Al Qatami.
“Deyaar's strategy to continue diversifying its portfolio of developments and services has helped the company establish itself as a pioneer in the local real estate market. And through its collaboration with global real estate experts, Deyaar has proven its commitment to innovation and creativity.
“Designed by OMA, which enjoys an impeccable reputation in architectural design, Midtown is a sterling example of Deyaar's ongoing priority to bring to market best in class real estate offerings."
The mixed-use development has been designed by Dutch architect, architectural theorist and urbanist Rem Koolhaas, who is also Professor in Practice of Architecture and Urban Design at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University.
Deyaar said it was following the example of cities such as Atlanta, Toronto and New York by developing a midtown project.
