Nakheel awards Dh700m contract for Warsan Village

Nakheel, a Dubai major developer, has awarded a contract worth Dh700 million for the construction project of its Warsan Village Community to Ginco General Contracting.

The developer, in a press release, said the contract covers the construction of 936 townhouses at Warsan Village, its new, gated community located south-west of International City.

Spanning 47.5 hectares, Warsan Village will also feature a recreation centre, mosque and 250 apartments set above a retail plaza with 365 outlets. Construction contracts for these will be awarded at a later date.

A Nakheel spokesman said, "Warsan Village will bring a new style of living to this already hugely-popular community."
