Madinat Al Soor
Madinat Al SoorMadinat Al Soor is both a popular destination and a unique place to live in. Designed to provide for a traditional Arabic setting, the masterplan attempts to revitalize the valuable qualities of historical settlements without forgetting the immediate presence of one of Dubai’s most prestigious urban centres. The character of a vibrant community is as sought after as the creation of a stimulating environment. In its intricate composition of built form, deriving directly from the Arabic vernacular, privacy is embraced while public interaction is encouraged. The name Al Soor, The Wall, originates from the development’s most prominent structure: a large inhabited wall element on the western tip of the site. The rich urban fabric of building clusters and irregular street and pedestrian path patterns integrates the wall with the other significant moments in this small town. It is only a short walk away from the beachfront resorts, the intrinsic town souks, the serene canal sides and the spectacular waterfront walks with the most privileged views of the two nearby iconic buildings, The Spiral and The Sphere. It is the concentration of all these particular places so close to each other that distinguishes Madinat Al Soor as one of the most attractive places to visit in this region of Dubai. |
