Tameer Towers steal limelight at CNBC Arabian Property Awards

In addition to this outstanding achievement, Tameer Towers has been short-listed for the Best International Property Award in four categories, broadening its exposure to the world market and opening avenues to new investors and clients. The final results of the International Property Awards will be announced in November at an extravagant event in Orlando, Florida.

The colossal, mixed-use mega-project has surpassed all expectations since its launch in October 2007, establishing itself as the pinnacle of luxury and innovation in the UAE capital, and becoming a household name with its unique design and functional aesthetics.

CEO of Tameer, Ghassan Sakhnini, said the six awards bestowed on the masterpiece development including: "Best Property", "Best Development" and "Best High Rise- Abu Dhabi", are indicative of the vast admiration and esteem of the project in the regional and international circuit.

Located in the Shams Abu Dhabi district of Al Reem Island, between the Arabian Gulf on one end and Sorouh Central Park on the other, Tameer Towers features a masterpiece commercial tower, four innovative residential towers, luxurious stepped villas and townhouses, serviced apartments building, abundant canal and promenade-lined retail and dining districts, in addition to a VIP marina.

Tameer Towers won all six CNBC Arabian Property Award 2008 categories it entered into, including: "Best Development - Abu Dhabi", "Best Property - Abu Dhabi", "Best Architecture (Multiple Units) - Abu Dhabi", "Best High-Rise Architecture - Abu Dhabi", "Best High-Rise Developments - Abu Dhabi", and "Best Developer Website - Abu Dhabi".

Entries were judged by a panel of well-respected experts from diverse backgrounds including representatives of entrenched professional bodies from different countries.

As "Best Property" and "Best Development" in Abu Dhabi, Tameer Towers will be the ultimate mixed-use destination in the UAE's capital, offering a unique opportunity to invest and acquire property in one of Abu Dhabi's most desirable locations. The overall development is a consummate study of building design and positioning, façades, views, sun ray paths, wind effects, environmental soundness, sustainability and human lifestyle.

Tameer Towers further solidify their status through their architectural excellence, both at the high-rise level and in terms of overall architecture. With one of the tallest towers on Al Reem Island designed by Gensler, Tameer Towers' main landmark will be its state-of-the-art diamond-cut tower, embracing the sea with its uniquely shaped atrium cradling the main building.
