Damac set to award main works contract for 70-storey Cavalli Tower
DUBAI, October 18, 2022
Leading UAE developer Damac Properties is in the process of awarding the main works package for its Cavalli Tower, a 70-storey ultra-luxurious building in Dubai Marina overlooking Palm Jumeirah branded by Italian fashion powerhouse Roberto Cavalli.
Announcing this today (October 18), Damac said the enabling works were progressing as per schedule with the contractor National Piling Corporation (NPC) almost completing the shoring works as well as the piling and excavation works which stand 85% completed.
The contract for the main works package will be awarded as soon as the enabling works get completed, it added.
Launched in September last year, the beach-facing skyscraper located in Dubai Marina will offer residents 71 floors of luxury overlooking the beautiful Palm Jumeirah Island, with ultra-luxury interiors branded by Italian fashion powerhouse Roberto Cavalli.
Cavalli Tower, which has a development value of $545 million, is a unique project aimed at setting the highest levels when it comes to luxury property offerings in Dubai, said Damac in a statement.
The glamour that is associated with the iconic Italian fashion house is matched by Damac’s standards for delivering luxury homes and lifestyle experiences, it stated.
Designed by award-winning architect Shaun Killa - who also created the unique and stunning Dubai Museum of the Future - the Cavalli tower comprises 436 units and is divided into three sections.
The first floors are considered luxury, the middle section of the tower is upper luxury while the top floors offer super luxury features and finishes, said the developer.
Luxury and upper luxury sections will have access to their own sky pool and sky gardens, while the super luxury category boasts an infinity pool, a cigar lounge and a private pavilion where residents can host their own private dinner parties.
Every home in the super-luxury category will either have its own private pool or jacuzzi and all units — whether a 2-bedroom apartment or a 5-bedroom duplex — enjoy balconies and high ceilings promoting stunning sea vistas, it stated.
Other unique features of the tower include a four-storey-high Cavalli-branded lobby, a Malibu Bay-like beach pool in the gardens and top of the line services such as 24-hour butler service and a la carte housekeeping service, it added.
According to Damac, work on the site offices began much before the appointment of the main contractor with KEO being named as the supervision consultant.
"KEO has extensive experience of delivering projects of similar nature here in Dubai and in the wider region and Damac is excited to work with them again to bring the vision of this ultra-luxurious project into fruition," noted General Manager of Projects Mohammed Tahaineh.
Damac's penchant to deliver luxury property offerings has been successful in attracting High-Net Worth buyers. As such, Cavalli Tower has received enormous interest and has nearly sold out all units, he stated.
"Our customers are regularly updated on the progress of construction works and are very happy with the pace at which we are moving," noted Tahaineh.
"Cavalli Tower will be among the most iconic skyscrapers that Dubai has ever seen, and I can’t wait to see the final product," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
