Dubai Mall set to open by late 2008
United Arab Emirates: Wednesday, April 02 - 2008 at 11:47
The Dubai Mall, slated to be one of the world's largest shopping malls, is set to be open by the end of this year. The mall is being developed by Emaar as part of the Dhs73bn ($20bn) Downtown Burj Dubai project. The structural steel used in mall, which will be bigger than the Mall of Emirates, is double that deployed for the Eiffel Tower (7,300 tonnes), and the stone and tile works of 1.2 million sq ft already laid are approximately 18 times the size of a football field measuring 69,000 sq ft. The net leasable floor area will be equivalent to the size of 50 football fields put together, developers said.
