As developers, we had to see market sentiment,&#8221; Jack Hu, the managing director of Farglory Middle East said.&#8221;We looked at the market carefully and have now repositioned the product mix.&#8221;The project will now comprise four towers with a mix of residential and commercial space. The first project will be a 29-storey residential complex. The UAE-based Al Fara&#8217;a is the main contractor for the project.About 10 per cent of the 220 apartments have been sold, with nearly half the buyers coming from Gulf countries, Mr Hu said.The remaining phases are scheduled for completion in 2022, depending on market conditions.&#8221;We are taking a long-term view of Al Maryah island, it is the future of Abu Dhabi, the economic generator as Abu Dhabi diversifies into a non-oil economy,&#8221; Mr Hu said.business@thenational.aeFollow The National&#8217;s Business section on Twitter&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : thenational.ae&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenational.ae\/business\/property\/farglory-resumes-1bn-al-maryah-project-in-abu-dhabi\" target=\"_blank\">Farglory resumes bn Al Maryah project in Abu Dhabi<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; Farglory Land has resumed work on a delayed US$1 billion real estate project in Abu&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24627","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-6pd","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":10342,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/mubadala-ramps-up-leasing-of-office-space-at-al-maryah\/","url_meta":{"origin":24627,"position":0},"title":"Mubadala ramps up leasing of office space at Al Maryah","date":"April 10, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r \r Mubadala Real Estate is to restart a search for tenants at Abu Dhabi's largest new office development, two years after leasing activity was put on hold.
