It has been designed by architects and engineers Arab Engineering Bureau and is being built by Unique Contracting Company.  Design International has been appointed as leasing agent.&#8221;We strongly believe that spending quality time with family and friends is one of life&#8217;s great pleasures, and with this philosophy in mind we have created Al Araimi Boulevard as an exceptional lifestyle destination created to bring people together,&#8221; said Sheikh Fahad.Oman-based U Capital last month issued an upbeat report on the sultanate&#8217;s economic prospects, despite being hurt by falling hydrocarbon revenues, leading to cuts in government spending.mfahy@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\/omani-developer-plans-westfield-inspired-mall-near-muscat\" target=\"_blank\">Omani developer plans Westfield-inspired mall near Muscat<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; Oman is set to get its own version of London&#8217;s Shepherd&#8217;s Bush.An Omani development company&#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-51576","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-dpS","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":9278,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/first-of-alef-groups-zero6-malls-to-open-in-sharjah\/","url_meta":{"origin":51576,"position":0},"title":"First of Alef Group&#039;s Zero6 malls to open in Sharjah","date":"March 28, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r \r The first project to be undertaken by Sheikh Khalid bin Sultan's Alef Group - a community shopping centre branded as Zero6 - is set to open in April next year, according to the company's managing director Issa Ataya.Speaking at a ceremony to mark the start of construction at\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":1506,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/eagle-hills-project-expected-to-boost-bahrain-gdp-by-4\/","url_meta":{"origin":51576,"position":1},"title":"Eagle Hills project expected to boost Bahrain GDP by 4%","date":"January 15, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r \r The Abu Dhabi-based developer Eagle Hills has said its Marassi Al Bahrain project will involve an investment of $3 billion \u2013 and could provide a boost of as much as 4 per cent to Bahrain\u2019s GDP.The company also said that it intends by March to appoint contractors to\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":1514,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/eagle-hills-project-could-boost-bahrain-gdp-by-4\/","url_meta":{"origin":51576,"position":2},"title":"Eagle Hills project could boost Bahrain GDP by 4%","date":"January 15, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r \r The Abu Dhabi-based developer Eagle Hills has said its Marassi Al Bahrain project will involve an investment of $3 billion \u2013 and could provide a boost of as much as 4 per cent to Bahrain\u2019s GDP.The company also said that it intends by March to appoint contractors to\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":48854,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/abu-dhabi-developer-aldar-sets-sights-on-yas-and-reem-projects\/","url_meta":{"origin":51576,"position":3},"title":"Abu Dhabi developer Aldar sets sights on Yas and Reem projects","date":"March 21, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Aldar Properties expects to invest Dh1.9 billion in developing four new projects on Reem Island and Yas Island in Abu Dhabi as part of the company's plans to boost its recurring revenue.
