One Za'abeel

Developed by Ithra Dubai and creating an impressive gateway to the Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC) area, One Za’abeel will add a new dimension to Dubai’s skyline once completed. Featuring the world’s largest cantilevered structure which spans an elevated highway, at a height of over 100m, the development is connected to the Trade Centre and Za’abeel Park. It will offer luxury 5* One&Only Hotel accommodation, leisure facilities, serviced residences and residential apartments, as well as high-specification commercial spaces within its two towers, podium and cantilever structure. Designed  to achieve Gold LEED specification, One Za’abeel represents Ithra Dubai’s vision for sustainable development.

We are delighted to have been appointed to work alongside Ithra Dubai. This client is of great importance to Omnium, and we are proud to be involved in One Za’abeel, a development of exceptional quality and vision.
