TRANSCRIPT

Central Market holds a special place in Abu Dhabi’s history. For more than 40 years it was a thriving souq, the centre

of trade and a focal point for citizens and tourists to purchase supplies, explore the sights or simply pass time.

As Abu Dhabi grows into a modern metropolis, the heart of the city needs to keep pace with the progress surrounding it now.

ALDAR restores Central Market to its former glory.

POINTING THE WAY

Just as it was in the 60’s, Central

Market will again be the focal point

of business and social life in Abu Dhabi.

As the most stylish of landmarks, it will

redefine the image, modern capability

and attractiveness of Abu Dhabi.

Situated at the intersection of Khalifa

Street, Airport Road and Hamdan

Street, Central Market is in the heart

of the city and easily accessible with

5,250 parking spots. It is composed

of three ultra-modern towers, a retail

and leisure area, along with a mosque

and a plaza.

The three towers include a 52-storey

five-star luxury hotel with 250 rooms

and 200 serviced apartments,

a 58-storey office tower (WorkCentral)

and an 88-storey residential tower

(LiveCentral) with 525 apartments.

The spacious retail and leisure

area (ShopCentral) is composed

of high-end retail outlets, boutiques,

restaurants, bars, cafés, a wide range

of entertainment venues and a four-star

business hotel with approximately 120

rooms. Bridging the retail and leisure

area is a traditional Arabian souq.

The mosque can house 1,200 males

and 300 females, for a total capacity

of 1,500.
