The project comes within the framework of Union Coop’s plan for a strategic expansion and increasing its outreach to serve members of society and contribute towards obtaining a unique shopping experience, a statement from the cooperative said.

Located in the Al Warqa 3 area of Dubai, the project overlooks Tripoli Street, which separates the area of Al Warqa from Mirdif and leads to Emirates Road. Furthermore, the strategic location enables the mall to serve a large segment of the population of the region, the statement added.

The retail destination consists of two basements, ground, first floor and an offices floor, with a total built-up area of 62,523sqm. The two floors of the basement and part of the ground floor are allocated to parking lots with a total of 671 spaces, divided into 224 spaces per basement floor, and an addition 223 parking spaces on the ground floor.

The mall will also contain 44 stores, with an area of 5,264sqm, distributed into 26 stores on the ground floor and 18 on the first floor.
