Azizi Developments, a leading private real estate developer in the UAE, said it is advancing in the construction of its long delayed master-planned residential project Riviera, which once complete, will host 16,000 accommodation. The project was originally scheduled for delivery in phases from 2018.
Riviera is a French Mediterranean-inspired waterfront community strategically located on Al Khail Road in the Mohammed Bin Rashid City, amidst Dubai’s business, leisure, and retail hubs.
The delay in construction and delivery forced many buyers to seek compensation from the developers, who formed group on social media to air their frustration.
“Phase 1 is now 99 percent complete with the majority of the buildings already having been handed over, while phases 2, 3 and 4 are now at 98 percent, 92 percent and 27 percent, respectively. With 30 buildings already having been completed, totalling approximately 6,000 units, the rest of all of phases 1, 2, and 3 are to be finished within the coming months,” the developer said in a statement.
Riviera is part of Azizi Developments’ award-winning portfolio. It is a stylish waterfront-lifestyle destination that comprises 75 mid- and high-rise buildings with approximately 16,000 residences.
Designed to introduce the French-Mediterranean lifestyle to Dubai, which is not merely about architectural art but also about a certain ‘joie de vivre’ — a celebration of life, an exultation of spirit, Riviera represents a new landmark destination that is both residential and commercial, with an abundance of retail space. Riviera features three districts: an extensive retail boulevard, a lagoon walk on the shores of its 2.7 km-long swimmable crystal lagoon with artisan eateries and boutiques, and Les Jardins — a vast, lush-green social space.
Farhad Azizi, CEO of Azizi Developments, said: “To see our efforts pay off continuously in terms of build quality, construction speed, and local and international demand, feels incredibly gratifying to all of us at Azizi Developments. Riviera is such a vast and well-though-through community, one that will be home to approximately 16,000 families who will see their lifestyles being elevated into a realm of unparalleled comfort, convenience, health, and well-being. Many have already received their keys, with many more receiving them in the coming weeks and months. It fills us with immense pride to be building this world-class community, a city of its own, and to see it truly come to life with residents beginning to move in.”
Azizi Developments is now gearing up for the remainder of its 2023 deliveries.
