Awali City is a Dh20 billion development in Ajman on Emirates Road and is being developed on 33 million square feet of land.
Of the Dh20 billion, Awali Real Estate investments represent around 30 per cent, or Dh8 to 8.5 billion.
It will include 136 plots of land designated for residential and commercial use. There will also be a range of towers, varying from 17 to 50 storeys, thought to eventually accommodate 120,000 people.
The Dh65 million design and engineering contract for 15 residential and commercial towers in Awali City had been given to Adnan Saffarini Engineering consultants.
The 15 towers include 11 towers of 32 storeys each, which form the northern and southern gates of the city and four 50-storey buildings, which form the entrance to Awali City from Emirates Road.
Around 60 per cent of Awali City will be open space with only 40 per cent representing the built-up area.
