Dar Global, the London-listed luxury real estate developer, has awarded the enabling works contract for the Trump International Hotel & Tower, Dubai to Edra for Emirates, thus marking a key milestone in advancing construction of this landmark development on Sheikh Zayed Road at the entrance of Downtown Dubai.

Introduced in April this year, Trump International Hotel & Tower, Dubai is set to become a new global icon, bringing together world-class hospitality, luxury residential living, and The Trump – an exclusive members-only private club designed for a select community of discerning global residents.

The 80-floor tower will stand 350-m tall featuring Dubai’s highest outdoor pool, two ultra-rare penthouses inspired by New York’s Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue and sweeping panoramic views of Burj Khalifa.

As per the contract, Edra for Emirates will undertake the enabling and foundational works required to prepare the site for full construction.

The scope includes ground engineering, deep enabling systems and logistical mobilisation to ensure the premium standards required for the development of such scale and luxury, it stated.

Ziad El Chaar, CEO of Dar Global, said: “Dubai continues to attract global investors seeking exclusivity, architectural distinction and world-class hospitality, and Trump International Hotel & Tower embodies these qualities.”

“The transition into site execution is an important step, reinforcing our commitment to delivering a landmark development that will stand among the most prestigious addresses in the region,” he stated.

As Edra for Emirates begins full mobilisation on site, Dar Global will continue to advance construction activities and release project updates in line with key milestones.

The tower is designed to elevate Dubai’s luxury real estate and hospitality landscape, attracting global investors, international residents and members seeking an unparalleled level of exclusivity.
