Donald Trump and Nakheel unveil a new design of a key skyscraper on the island of Palm Jumeirah
Nakheel, a developer with a working capital of more than $ 30 billion, and The Trump Organization recently told the public about the new hotel tower design that American billionaire Donald Trump plans to erect in the heart of Palm Jumeirah. Back in October of last year, he announced that the architects and designers of his firm would heed the fruitful ideas of Nakheel experts. The results of this collaboration now appeared before the eyes of an amazed public.
The new building of Donald Trump - Trump International Hotel & Tower, The Palm Jumeirah - will crown the "trunk" of a 5-kilometer palm-shaped island lying off the coast of Dubai. Palm Jumeirah, the first of the three reclaimed islands, is destined to become one of the world's leading resorts, offering a number of coastal hotels, residential buildings, shopping centers and entertainment complexes. Trump's skyscraper worth $ 600 million will become a 48-story multi-functional facility. The uniqueness of the design is in the minimum of shadows that was achieved thanks to new approaches to the use of stainless steel, glass and stone in the structure. “Connecting under the clouds,” said Donald Trump, “the two towers will have a brilliant completion, sparkling in the sun like a diamond.”
Donald Trump’s son, his father’s full namesake, executive vice president of development and acquisitions of The Trump Organization, arrived in Dubai to unveil the details of the new design of this unique tower and discuss their company's growing involvement in projects in the UAE. Speaking at the Arabian Hotel at an investment conference, he shared his experience in managing multifunctional facilities and condominium hotels, and also participated in a round table on the legal services industry in the Middle East. Donald Trump Jr. also visited the Nakheel booth during the Arabian Travel Market exhibition, where he answered journalists' questions.
“The future Trump International Hotel & Tower, The Palm Jumeirah,” said Donald Trump Jr., “will include 360 freehold residential apartments and a 300-room condominium. The facility will introduce the Emirates to a new hotel practice that has long proved all over the world their performance. "
This project, which is the first collaboration between Nakheel and Donald Trump in the Middle East, gives extended investment participation rights to 19 Arab countries. This is the first in the UAE territory of the hotel-resort chain Nakheel, the opening of which was announced in February this year.
“The new design inspires confidence,” said Sultan Ahmed bin Suleim, Nakheel’s executive chairman, “that the future facility will be a stunning architectural masterpiece. The taut appearance of the tower will not only not distort the overall impression of the island’s buildings, but will also complement it successfully. In addition , from the top of the building a bewitching view of the island and the Persian Gulf will open, onto which the windows of all, without exception, rooms will go.
As the fastest growing city in the world, Dubai is open for cooperation with well-known international companies. Our alliance with Donald Trump's company is a fantastic example of how such businesses can successfully grow. "
