Aldar to showcase key projects at US expo
Aldar Properties will display two of its world-class sustainable integrated developments - Al Raha Beach and Yas Island - at the Cityscape USA.
Representing itself as a new gateway to the Middle East, Aldar will lead a high-level team to “Big Apple” New York City with aim to bridge ties between the US property investment market and the emerging market in Abu Dhabi, said a company official.
Visitors to Aldar stand will also catch a glimpse of other major developments that are part of the company’s diverse portfolio.
This conference and exhibition has the specific purpose of introducing the emerging markets to the western world, the United States in particular.
Investment opportunities in markets such as India, China, Asia, Russia, Latin America, and the Middle East are being brought to the forefront of Cityscape USA 2008 thus creating a platform for US real estate industry to network with some of the most significant real estate investors and developers from the emerging world.
The fact that Aldar owns over 35 million sq m of land in strategic locations throughout Abu Dhabi should make keeping a close watch on the company’s future developments a likely game-plan for many who attend this year’s exhibition.
With assignments worth more than $72 billion, and some of the most highly anticipated developments in the world over, Aldar Properties will be more than a quiet presence at this exhibition.
Aldar CEO Ronald Stephen Barrott said the company's participation in Cityscape New York had given it an access to a very important market.
'Yas Island and Al Raha Beach- have already made headlines for their originality. Both embrace award-winning developments, and both are living examples of the integrated development philosophy upheld by Aldar.'
'Through our physical presence and the projects we are showcasing, we hope to present Aldar as a world-class developer deeply bent on building sustainable long-term investment for its clients and shareholders,' he added.
A major attraction for sports, shopping and entertainment enthusiasts, the 6,000 acre Yas Island project encompasses outstanding leisure attractions including the world’s first Ferrari theme park, a Warner Bros. theme park, and the Royal Yas Marina Circuit which will host the Abu Dhabi Formula One Grand Prix in 2009. Yas Island will also be home to a water park, golf courses, major retail podiums, hotels, restaurants, and several other unique and exciting venues that are destined to redefine leisure and entertainment.
