Sheikh Zayed Centre Tower 1 will have 3 residential apartment buildings of 20-25 floors each, professionally managed by Hyatt Residency; and one of the biggest and most exclusive shopping / entertainment complexes in the region.

The main 60-storeyed tower will also host a 5-star Grand Hyatt Hotel, the largest reception (marriage)/conference halls in the country, plus offices for Multi-National Companies and Large Local Private and Public Corporates.

There will also be exclusive, high-end residential suites in the main tower, again managed by Hyatt Residency. Also, parking space will be provided for over 4,000 cars and Zayed Centre will be connected to the Gaddafi Stadium Sports Complex by a covered, over-head bridge.

The 'Project' is being carried out as a Joint Venture between the Abu Dhabi Group and the Government of Punjab. The two investors have formed a holding company for Zayed Centre called TA`AVUN (Pvt.) Ltd. which will be responsible for managing the project. Turner International (one of the largest construction companies in the U.S.) have been hired as contractors/builders; whereas HOK—a firm that designs buildings for Donald Trump—has been retained as project consultants and architects.

The total cost of the project is not known as of yet. However, it is approximated at US$500 million.

Sheik Zayed tower will be the second tallest building in south asia after Enshaa tower in Karachi or third if the Port Tower complex in Karachi is completed. It will be visible from India across the border.
