The project is a sideline to Emaar’s massive Dubai Mall expansion

‘The project has become vital to accommodate Emaar’s massive expansion of the Dubai Mall’ according to Wam.ae. The Dubai real estate company are planning a massive expansion to the mall, including a large new fashion avenue and a huge extension to the parking facilities. The new additions will mean the mall will have the capability to hold 100 million visitors per annum.
