DPG plans new city for skilled workers

01 June 2010

DUBAI Properties Group (DPG), a member of Dubai Holding, has announced the launch of Nuzul, a dedicated community for skilled labour focused on providing an enhanced lifestyle to the emirate’s labour workforce.

Nuzul comprises 2,236 residential units across 13 low-rise buildings with a built-up area of 92,000 sq ft in Jebel Ali Industrial Area One, DPG said.
The innovative new community features Mediterranean architecture with wide open spaces designed to provide a healthy living, working and leisure environment for skilled labour.
Nuzul features holistic amenities including recreation and entertainment areas, a food court, supermarket, clinic, pharmacy, emergency treatment room, mosque, game rooms, library, internet room, ATM machine, retail outlets and cricket and basketball fields.
A kitchen with LPG (central gas), a dining facility, laundry rooms, bathrooms and elevators can be found on each floor of all 13 buildings.
Located in close proximity to the Jebel Ali Free Zone with easy connectivity to Sheikh Zayed Road, Emirates Road and other arterial highways, Nuzul is a secure community that boasts on-site, dedicated centralised parking for heavy vehicles and staff buses.
Khalid Al Malik, Group CEO of DPG, said: “Nuzul is in line with our commitment to deliver a diverse and comprehensive real estate portfolio that features the next generation of labour accommodations.”
Nuzul is a “green” community with a MBBR (moving bed biofilm reactor) sewage treatment plant. The plant will be designed for approximately 10,000 residents with a capacity of 3,000 cu m. The treated water will be pumped for re-use in gardening.
