Nakheel's Forbidden City to feature 4,000 low-rise apartments
Dubai's master developer Nakheel yesterday unveiled a residential neighbourhood Forbidden City in International City inspired from the legendary Royal Court Palace of Imperial China. Forbidden City will offer its own extensive community facilities, enhanced by the range of retail and leisure offerings at International City and Dragon Mart according to a report in Emirates Business 24|7.
The new city will be home to 4,000 low-rise studio, one-bed and two-bed apartments. At the heart of the development will be a landscaped vista leading to an ornate Grand Mosque, the spiritual centrepiece of the community.
Work on the development started in April 2008 with the completion estimated to be in April 2011. In addition to 4,000 homes, Forbidden City will feature 50 retail stores including food outlets, restaurants, internet cafés and boutiques. Residents will also benefit from the close proximity to Dragon Mart, which offers the widest range of Chinese merchandise available outside mainland China.
International City provides a diverse range of affordable accommodation options in an accessible living environment. Truly international in its design, the project's Residential District is divided into 10 internationally themed communities representing, China, England, France, Greece, Italy, Morocco, Persia, Russia and Spain.
Also located nearby is Lake District, thoughtfully designed residential community that shares enthralling views to Al Warsan Lake, one of the very few freshwater wetlands in the UAE. The lake is home to more than 190 species of birds, including some of the rarest birds known to the Arabian Peninsula and neighbouring regions.
Nakheel has undertaken a series of measures to ensure that this habitat is protected and in the long term, there are plans to provide suitable facilities that will enable the public to enjoy the wildlife there.
