Marina Diamond 1 is being built as one of the many residential towers located at the Dubai Marina, which is opposite to the Jumeirah Lake Towers and next to the Dubai Media City. The tower was designed by Al Ajmi and will be located next to Marina Diamond 4 and Abyaar Tower.
Marina Diamond 1 is a 15-storey freehold apartment building with two blocks that is a member of the Marina Diamond Family. It will contain studio, one and two bedroom apartment units from 351 to 1034 square feet (37 to 96 square meters). Amenities at Marina Diamond I will include a gymnasium, swimming pool, sauna, two-storey covered parking, state-of-the-art security, fire-fighting equipment and two separate fire escapes.
The vision of Dubai Marina is to create an awe-inspiring city-within-a city that delights residents with its cosmopolitan, free-spirited atmosphere and unique, invigorating lifestyle. It will be an urban centre on the water, comparable to the most exclusive waterfront developments in the world's leading cities. Ideally positioned along Dubai's new growth corridor, Dubai Marina will be the place where people meet, laugh, live and enjoy life to the full. Always alive, with the glittering Marina at its heart, Dubai Marina will be unlike any other place, in Dubai, the Middle East and even the world.
IBN Batutta Mall - This is the nearest mega-mall to Dubai Marina--not at the Marina itself but (across Sheikh Zayed Road) within sight of some of the towers. It is described as 6 malls in one, each having a different theme--China, India, Persia, Egypt, Tunisia, Andalusia.
