Mumbai-based developer Shapoorji Pallonji Real Estate has begun piling work on their $350 million USD Imperial Avenue project in Dubai. It's the first project outside of India for the company, which is planning to partner with other major developers to build on other key sites across Dubai. The company is hoping to develop approximately five million square feet of property in the United Arab Emirates' most populous city.
The 45-storey residential development is strategically sited within Dubai's Business Bay district, which is home to the world's tallest hotel and a number of other impressive skyscrapers. The project was unveiled in September with sales of the 424 apartment units launching the following month. A one-bedroom apartment will set buyers back 1.47 million AED, while an expansive five-bedroom penthouse can be yours for 11.5 million AED.
Serviced by five floors of parking, Imperial Avenue will contain six "podium-villas" at the top, with a dramatic infinity pool splayed out on level 26. Carefully arranged over floor plates that are 20 percent larger than average residential developments, additional amenities include a private cinema, community pool, and children's play areas. Imperial Avenue boasts a number of sustainability advancements as well — grey water reuse and solar water heating will become integral to the building's environmental performance while lowering service charges for tenants.
The luxury tower's girth decreases as it rises, with three levels of landscaped decks marking those transition points. The building owes its curvy form to the sweeping balconies that define the facade, offering residents views of Business Bay Canal and the Arabian Sea. Like most Dubai highrises, Imperial Avenue's design comes to a close with an avant-garde crown that will be illuminated at night.
