About
THE PROJECT
Highlighting the values of holistic sustainability by creating a space for living, working, shopping and entertainment, The Qasba Master Plan is part of Al-Mamzar Island development project, which is an Island with a distinctive traditional feel combining contemporary urban and architectural designs.
With a Lifestyle Centre at its nucleus and the whole development following H.H Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammad Al-Qasimi’s vision, which connects the civic spine with the Grand Mosque area, the Qasba Master Plan project celebrates Arab culture while making use of the sites’ unique natural and urban assets.
