I heard that people started to look through the building the other day, but you can't get past security unless you have the email from accommodation.

The reason you cannot find any information, is because the building is still under construction. It is brand new, with fit out of the 80+ residential apartments expected in the coming weeks. The commercial office spaces and 'the void' are still all bare concrete with no business leases signed.

On the eastern side there are 3 bed (with and without maid) apartments located on levels 2 through to 5 which overlook the large 10th Street carpark. On the western side is mainly office space on busy Umm Hurair Road. There are 2 bed apartments positioned to overlook the internal rectangular void but have no other view. The pool is located on the roof. The Googlemaps coords are 25.2447, 55.312.

It is a busy area that could be tough for shift workers, but would probably be suitable for management who work daylight hours only. Construction is still ongoing with cranes and concrete trucks still pouring foundations at the northern end of the building.

There seems plenty of info on this thread to form your own opinion....

Goodluck, welcome aboard!
