Sindbad Hotel Complex and Conference Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sindbad Hotel Complex and Conference Center was a private investment development project for downtown Baghdad, Iraq, designed in 2004 by architect Hisham N. Ashkouri as a kind of personal contribution towards the reconstruction of Iraq. Though granted political risk insurance for the project by OPIC in 2004, private investors at that time were hesitant to commit to the initial phases of development.
Total project cost was estimated in 2005 to be approximately $113 M USD.[1]
