Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, toured the tourist and commercial Box Star Project, located along Dubai's Al Wasl Road in Jumeirah, sprawled across 1,200 metre long stretch.
H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai, accompanied Sheikh Mohammed.
H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Foundation, Khalifa Saeed Suleiman, Director- General of the Department of Protocol and Hospitality in Dubai and Abdullah Ahmed Al Habbai, Group Chairman of Meraas Holding also accompanied Sheikh Mohammed during the tour.
Sheikh Mohammed and his accompanying officials toured the commercial and tourist project which has a unique architecture as it uses unconventional building materials such as industrial containers, concrete and steel materials, to add a touch of modernity.
Sheikh Mohammed was briefed by Al Habbai on the design of the project's shops and yards and familiarised himself about the new building materials used in the project, which will, when opened at the end of this month, be a rare building of unique architectural importance.
Sheikh Mohammed congratulated them on this promising project, underscoring the importance of such international malls that entice families inside and outside the country by encouraging family tourism. Such initiatives need to be promoted to reflect the UAE's authentic heritage.
Box Park will be a revolutionary lifestyle destination where urban chic meets contemporary sophistication. Providing a refreshing alternative to sprawling, insular malls, the concept will feature an eclectic mix of restaurants, cafes and high-end fashion outlets, intermingled with open spaces and amenities.
Following the example set in other cities such as New York, London, Paris and Christchurch, where similar temporary ‘pop-up' structures have been erected, 8x8 will be a permanent destination where all kinds of people including residents and tourists can spend a memorable and fun-filled day out. A spatial experience that is inviting, comfortable, engaging and memorable, this self-contained destination will be a place to shop, dine, relax and soak up the outdoor ambiance.
Nestled in the heart of Jumeirah, Box Park will serve as a seamless addition to the surrounding community and is set to become the new social hub of Dubai
