The two local contractors were part of a consortium with South Africa's Murray & Roberts Contractors (Middle East) for the project, but Tameer cancelled its contract with the original consortium in March (MEED 30:4:09).
The project is on Reem island and involves building six towers between the sea and the Central Park area of the Shams Abu Dhabi development.
The main buildings are a 74-floor, 300 metre-high office tower in the commercial area, a 21-floor hotel and apartment tower, two 50-floor residential towers and two 30-floor residential towers.
The total built-up area is 915,000 square metres. The first units are scheduled for delivery in 2011.
The US' Hill International is the project manager and France's Bureau Veritas is construction manager.
