Place in Ad-Dawhah, Qatar
The Pearl Island, when completed
The Pearl Island (Arabic : جزيرة اللؤلؤة , romanized : jazirat alluwlua ) in Doha , Qatar , is an artificial island with an area of nearly four square kilometers. It is the first land in Qatar to be available for freehold ownership by foreign nationals.[4] As of 2018, there were 27,000 residents.
Once fully completed, The Pearl was expected to create over 32 kilometers of new coastline, for use as a residential estate with an expected 18,831 dwellings and 45,000 residents by 2018.[5]
In 2004, when the project was first revealed, the initial cost of constructing the island stood at $2.5 billion.[6] It is now believed the project will cost $15 billion upon completion.[7] [8]
Residential development
[ edit ]
Residential development on the island is intended to incorporate various national and international themes, including aspects of Arabic, Mediterranean, and European culture. The Pearl Island is divided into 12 districts (also referred to as precincts), each of which has a distinct architectural style.[9]
Porto Arabia Towers
[ edit ]
Total number of towers will be 31 with a total of 4,700 apartments.[10] The address format is Unit 1234, 1 Porto Arabia. Some references use PA-1 for convenience.
