Hydra plans Twin Towers in Jumeirah Village

Hydra Properties, a UAE-based property developer, yesterday launched Hydra Twin Towers in Jumeirah Village in Dubai.

The project will feature two towers with 32 levels each. One of the tower will be an exclusive residential tower and the other will be a hotel apartment tower.

The towers will overlook Meadows on side, Emirates Hills on one side and Jumeirah Golf Estates on the other.

"This is a moment of immense pride and joy for us at Hydra Properties. Today we are launching Hydra Twin Towers in the heart of Dubai, at the Jumeirah Village, which will soon transport you to the laps of luxury and serenity of nature's bounty," Dr Sulaiman Al Fahim, Chief Executive of Hydra Properties said.

He said: "All hallmarks of the Hydra Properties will be again evident at the Twin Towers, underlining our commitment to quality and sustainable development in the region that calls for a careful handling of the environment."

According to Mahmoud Saad, construction manager at Hydra Properties: "Hydra Properties has initiated work on excavation and piling for the two basement floors of the project. We have a trained workforce, who is keen to deliver the goods on time. The initial phase of the project will be completed in the next six months. The piling work for overall structure will commence soon after that."

Hydra Twin Towers will be completed by early 2010. Al Hatem Contracting Corporation will look after the construction of the project, while the Architects and Planning Group will look after the engineering.

The company has expanded rapidly in the UAE with several mega projects in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

It has also grown globally into Mexico, where it has developed Hydra Waves. Hydra has recently unveiled two new projects, Hydra Avenue Towers and Hydra 55 Towers, on Al Reem Island in Abu Dhabi.
