Jumeirah Business Center Tower's are a collection of nine free-hold commercial towers being developed in plots G2, V1, Y1, N3, W1, L1, H1, G3, and H3 of the Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) Community in Dubai, UAE.[1] The towers were designed by National Engineering Bureau and are being developed by Al Fajer Properties (AFP). These consist of a leaseable area of 3,600,000 square feet (330,000 m2) and an additional 150,000 square feet (14,000 m2) dedicated to retail across all nine towers.

Phase 1 Completed by Al Fajer Properties

Phase one of the project was awarded to Dubai-based property developer-Al Fajer Properties. AFP is the premier developer in the Dubai World DMCC Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT) community and is the only developer to include a five-floor atrium within the lobbies of its towers. The first phase of the development consists of five towers and adds 2,000,000 sq ft (190,000 m2) of office space and an additional 83,000 sq ft (7,700 m2) of retail space within the Jumeirah Lake Towers Community. Al Ahamdiah Contracting (AFP’s main contractor), enabled the project to achieve a rate of a 4-day cycle per floor for phase 1, which has resulted in five towers being built in a span of twelve months [2]
