His Highness Sheikh Humaid Bin Rashid Al Nuami, Member Supreme Council of UAE and Ruler of Ajman, visited on Friday (April 02, 2010) the construction site of the AED2.2 billion (US$599 million) ‘Ajman Uptown’ master community development and reviewed the construction progress on the project. The project recently marked a key construction milestone with the completion of all sub-structures for the 1,504 villas being built within it.

During his visit, His Highness Sheikh Humaid was given a complete briefing on the project’s current status by Engineer Abdul Sattar Dero, Chairman, Sweet Homes Group, and other senior management officials, and has expressed his satisfaction over the architecture and the overall plan for the project. His Highness Sheikh Humaid also commended the rapid progress being made in the superstructure work across all two, three and four-bedroom townhouses and exclusively designed five-bedroom VIP villas within the project.

In addition, he spoke with the senior technical team members of Sweet Homes, and discussed the recently awarded MEP contract for the project, as well as the construction schedule for 2010. At present, construction continues on a 24/7 basis, with a total of 2,000 laborers working in different shifts in an effort to meet the project’s scheduled delivery date.

“The visit of His Highness Sheikh Humaid Bin Rashid Al Nuami to check on the progress of ‘Ajman Uptown’ underlines the importance of this project for the emirate and its prominence as a key development with all the components of a thriving residential and business community.

His commendation and words of encouragement inspires us to push through with our vision of creating a model community in Ajman, which stands for its stability and economic potential,” said Fahad Sattar Dero, CEO, Sweet Homes Holdings.

Strategically located in the heart of emirate, the ‘Ajman Uptown’ project spans across an area measuring approximately 4 million square feet and offers two, three and four-bedroom townhouses and exclusively designed five-bedroom VIP villas.

The project’s outstanding design is taken from classic French architecture and carries the overall ‘L’ Art De Vivre’ theme.

As a full-fledged community, ‘Ajman Uptown’ will house a school, a healthcare centre, a fire fighting station, two mosques, a health and recreation club, a swimming pool, markets, shopping mall, hotel and hotel apartments, and convenient and spacious parks apart from the luxury apartments and boutique offices.

"We have recently awarded the MEP and civil contracts with a view towards delivery of the first phase within this year. The approval and support expressed by His Highness is a welcome sign of confidence in our project, and we remain steadfast in our commitment to complete this world-class development on time while ensuring that it surpasses the high expectations of our investors," concluded Fawad Sattar Dero, CEO, Sweet Homes General Contracting.
