Marina Mall Abu Dhabi, owned by the National Investment Company (NIC), has announced that it will be breaking ground in early 2017 on major mall improvements worth AED300 million, in addition to a new AED3 billion extension.
Marina Mall Abu Dhabi will be undergoing a renovation and growing in size with a 120,000 sq m extension designed by DP Architects, the company behind the design of Dubai Mall.
The new extension plan will be divided into two parts, the north and south side of the mall, which will include the latest retail and F&B brands and new market entry brands exclusive to the mall.
Marina Mall Abu Dhabi will also expand its car parking facilities, a statement said.
Jihad Dirani, head of leasing at Marina Mall Abu Dhabi, said: “We are entering an exciting phase of Marina Mall’s development, as we continue our journey to deliver an excellent visitor experience. We are currently in the process of selecting the right suppliers and contractors; whilst looking to evolve our leasing portfolio.”
In 2006, the mall went through major expansion plans, which included the addition of a revolving restaurant tower, as well as an increase in mall facilities and retail outlets.
Marina Mall is also home to Marina Eye – Abu Dhabi’s first and only observatory wheel.
