"Investors, developers and potential partners clearly share our vision for Russia, where we are planning a series of distinctive developments that will bring a new dimension to the way people live there."
Limitless' first project for Russia is a 50-50 joint venture with RDI, one of Russia's leading investment and development companies. Located near Ivakino and Starbeevo in the Khimki Region, 3km from Sheremetyevo International Airport and 24km north-west of central Moscow, it will be a distinctive, balanced community providing homes for 12,000 people. The 113 hectare master plan includes 4,500 homes including low-rise apartments buildings, townhouse and villas, as well as schools, retail and commercial elements.
The site is in natural countryside surroundings, alongside the Moscow Canal and in extensive pine forest, which will be retained and incorporated into the master plan: almost 30% of the development will be 'green'.
Limitless, exhibiting at the four-day MIPIM event for the first time, is also showcasing developments in Malaysia, Jordan, India, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
Saeed Ahmed Saeed continued:
