(BWD). The development is conceived as an urban beach, as it extends the existing seafront boulevard and promenade by a series of overlapping platforms, MINA EL HOSN / CORNICHE ROAD reminiscent of sea waves, to provide outdoor spaces and public areas for artwork. The facilities under construction include an apartment and yacht club building, a series of waterside restaurants, specialty stores and public facilities. The project is accessed from the Corniche promenade to the north, the waterside city park to the east and a pedestrian bridge over the boulevard to the south. Situated on the northeast side of the site, the yacht club is the project’s main building with a total of 14,000 sq m of floor space. It consists of four stories and three basements, accommodating commercial space at ground level, 53 serviced and furnished apartments and a yacht club on upper levels. Nine apartments are to be retained and operated by BWD with managerial support from a third-party operator. The other apartments will be sold. The design-and-build tender for underground structural work and construction of the basement floors was won by a Hourié – Profond joint venture, based on the design by the Solétanche Bachy Group (France). The works were completed in March 2009. Hourié are currently building the superstructure with interior design entrusted to Dada Associ - ates. The building’s inauguration is expected to take place in February 2012. The quayside restaurant strip on the southern side of the development comprises 16 restaurants and five retail outlets totaling approximately 6,000 sq m of floor space. Stretched along the Beirut Marina, the one-story construction remains below street level, with its roof being a continuation of the Corniche. DMR (US) with Geopier (Turkey) won the tender for enabling and ground stabilization works, which were completed in April 2009. Construction works on the restaurants and retail outlets started in October 2009 and are being executed by Société Mouawad-Eddé. MINA EL HOSN / WATERFRONT DISTRICT The target delivery date is set for September 2011. OFFICE BUILDING Mina El Hosn / Lot 1493 Offices / BUA 24,000 sq m Competition in 2010 between 3XN (Denmark), Fumihiko Maki and Associates (Japan), Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners (UK) and Wilkinson Eyre (UK) Fumihiko Maki and Associates selected with Fouad Menem Consultants and Partners Under Study The competition brief called for a distinctive office building looking towards Beirut’s future. The winning scheme proposes a 20-story triple A office tower that meets the highest inter - national standards in terms of space, structural efficiency, comfort and technical resolution, corresponding to its unique location within the city center. The concept incorporates a large podium, as a contemporary interpretation of the porous urbanism that creates the unique character of a Middle Eastern souk with its sheltered passageways. The podium introduces filtered natural light and a lower scale storefront in a modern design vocabulary. In response to the global trend for multi-use, loosely defined working environments, a series of linked green spaces run throughout the tower. Referred to as vertical urbanism, they con - nect the work spaces to the surrounding city and sea. The building’s design benefits from a shifted core, which allows for greater office depth and flexibility. A single corridor offers access to all offices, thus maximizing the total rental area. All offices benefit from views on the mountains or sea. The concept has been optimized for Beirut’s mild winters and hot summers using a double- skin façade. The outer skin is a mix of translucent and transparent glazing of a ceramic frit to protect against wind and solar radiation, allowing diffused light to fall in. The inner skin is fully glazed and includes slits, allowing for fresh air to reach the interior. MINA EL HOSN / HOTEL DISTRICT / GEORGE SHEHADE STREET SERVICED FURNISHED APARTMENTS, SPA AND WELLNESS CENTER Mina El Hosn / Lot 1338 / Block 46-08 Mixed-use / BUA 15,986 sq m Competition in 2010 between Peter Marino Architects (US), David Chipperfield Architects (UK) and SANAA (Japan) Peter Marino Architects selected with Idepconsult Under Study Conceived as the fifth magnet within the regeneration of Beirut city center, this site is intrinsically linked to Beirut Souks. Located on Patriarch Hoyek Street, the principal vehic - ular approach to the Waterfront District, it is the last segment within the pedestrian network that connects the Hotel District to the commercial city center. The project includes retail, restaurants and cafés, high-end serviced furnished apartments and the future Beirut Bodyna Spa and Wellness Center. The winning scheme presented by Peter Marino achieves a successful massing response to the local context by means of a well-planned arrangement and the introduction of a central courtyard, which creates a public destination within the development. The resi - dential wing is entered from the southwest corner, the calmest part of the site, and enjoys easy access to the courtyard with its many public elements. A connection on the rooftop offers access to the spa, roof garden and sun terrace with its spectacular views. The retail component facing Beirut Souks is highly visible and easily accessible creating a vibrant new commercial area. The stores, restaurants and cafés will benefit from the addi - tional pedestrian traffic that is to cross the courtyard. The wellness center features top design, equipment and professionals to cater for a demanding clientele.
