star hotels, commercial centers, and prayer facilities for 200,000 worshippers. The project will have 4,500 shops and 3,000 showrooms, a central transport station and parking facility for 12,000 vehicles.
A joint stock company will be established to implement the residential project. "It will create a model residential and commercial center with new roads, pathways, tunnels, electric stairs, and other facilities," said Abdul Rahman Faqeeh, chairman of Makkah Construction Company.
The Makkah Development Authority recently completed a survey for the project and set the market value of the real estate at SR4.2 billion. Owners of Jabal Omar plots have the option either to join the new joint stock company or sell their property to it for development.
The project site is bordered by Umm Al-Qura Street to the north, Duhlat Al-Rushd to the south, Ibrahim Al-Khalil Street to the east, and Al-Hafaer and Al-Tendbawi to the west.
