BurJuman set for year-end finish
01 June 2003
Dubai shopping mall BurJuman has entered its final construction phase with the retail section set to open by mid-December this year.
The mall is displaying artist impressions and a model of its proposed Dh1.4 billion ($341.5 million) expansion project to the public.
The BurJuman expansion will almost treble the size of the existing shopping area and also include a luxury residential complex and a 22-storey office tower. The office tower will include modern offices, a business centre, a 20,000-sq-ft exclusive conference hall, Internet facilities, cafes, a fully-equipped gymnasium and other sports facilities while the residential complex will comprise 163 luxury furnished and semi-furnished apartments in addition to a block of serviced luxury apartments
Currently, the mall is home to many local and international brands, and the number of stores and cafes will increase from 190 to 300 after the expansion, including the famous Saks Fifth Avenue that will anchor the redeveloped mall.
When completed the entire BurJuman project will have an area of 4.4 million sq ft.
