The local/German Al-Rostamani Pegel (ARP) has been awarded two contracts for high-rise buildings on the Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) development in Dubai. The awards coincided with local real estate developer Al-Fajer Properties unveiling plans for two more towers and US-based Stellar Group being awarded the contract for JLT's district cooling system. JLT, which is being promoted by the local Nakheel, will have more than 70 high-rise towers, nearly all of which will be built by private developers.
ARP has been awarded the estimated AED 145 million ($40 million) contract to build the Indigo Icon tower.
