Go Back UAE Property Investment Forum Other Emirates Property Abu Dhabi Property Rotating City
Abu Dhabi Property The Abu Dhabi property market came into the limelight when the Abu Dhabi government issued a law allowing foreigners 99 years leasehold ownership of select projects in the Emirate. Prior to this law, property ownership was restricted to locals and that too, within a select few. Abu Dhabi has announced a number of large scale projects, some even grander than those in Dubai. Al Dar Properties was the first company in Abu Dhabi to announce projects that allowed foreign ownership. Do you think Abu Dhabi will be as successful as Dubai? What kind of returns can investors expect in this market? Have you invested yourself in Abu Dhabi? Open up your suggestions and views here.

Default Rotating City - 19-04-2007, 02:47 PM
Dubai's High Rise Real Estate has revealed plans to build a $1.6bn Rotating City on an island off of Abu Dhabi, reported Emirates Today. The development would cover 10m sqft and include a row of 20 rotating buildings and 300 revolving villas, as well as two hotels. Each apartment would occupy an entire floor and be able to rotate 360 degrees; the revolving villas would be built on floating decks.

im glad someone finally got this project

It could be the perfect solution for people who cannot stand the sight of their neighbours. High Rise Real Estate, a Dubai-based property developer, has announced plans to construct a Dh6 billion Rotating City.
Covering an area of 10 million square feet, the city, which looks like a spaceport from Star Wars, will consist of more than 20 rotating buildings and 300 revolving, floating and flying villas

I hope it never gets built anywhere in the world and I highly doubt that it would go ahead in Abu Dhabi. What makes me believe that it will never ever be in AD is that they want a whole island. DREAM HARDER Mr Mousa.

Forget ugly...how wasteful is this? in a day and age where we talk about conserving energy and increased fuel efficiency and alternative energy sources....why would you want to waste so much energy rotating such massive structures? Sheesh.Does anyone really need this or is this being built just for the sake of it?
