Al Qandeel Contracting Company and Zahrat Al Safa Construction Company, has together won the combined contract, worth Dh.250million. The work on the residential property development is likely to commence in March this year.


Comprising seven residential buildings, with each being eight storeys high, the La Vista Residence Project, offers a total 832 residential units. The work on the first five buildings will be undertaken by Zahrat Al Safa Construction Company, while the work on the remaining two will be undertaken by Al Qandeel Contracting Company.

The project spreads over a built-up area of 943,000 square feet, covering 290,000 square feet of land. The project, which is likely to be complete by August 2009, offers a studio, single and double bedroom apartments, and is a pure family-oriented community with good schools and shopping malls in the neighbourhood. Other amenities include swimming pool, party hall, gymnasium, sauna and Jacuzzi kids pool, apart from 24 hours security and covered car parking for 860 vehicles.

Located in Dubai Silicon Oasis, in close proximity to the New Ring Road, Emirates Road and Dubailand and Academic City, more than 75 percent of the units have already been sold, ever-since the launch of the project, which happened in May 2007. The prices per square feet have surged by 15 percent, following the launch.
