Jumeirah Lake Towers, Dubai

Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) is one of my favorite Dubai Mega Projects. Being developed by Nakheel, JLT will be an entire "city within a city" made up of 87 magnificent towers situated around a variety of man-made lakes....and located directly across from the equally magnificent Dubai Marina! Fifty percent of the towers will be residential, twenty seven percent will be for business and the remaining twenty three percent will be mixed-use. The centerpiece of JLT will be the Dubai Metals And Commodities Exchange. There will be retail areas at JLT offering everything from restaurants to shops of all kinds.

The overall concept of JLT is to combine business and residential living in one harmonious Mega Community. All of the towers, being totally new, are ultra modern and offer the latest amenities and services. Businesses locating at JLT will have some of the finest office space available anywhere in Dubai! Residents will be living in some of the highest quality towers in Dubai with facilities that include swimming pools, health clubs & gymnasiums, saunas, conference areas, 24/7 security. The towers are surrounded by a beautiful waterfront promenade to be enjoyed by residents of JLT and those who work there.

One feature I especially like about JLT is a special air conditioning weather buffering system that will be used during the hot summer weather. From JLT:

'In view of the uncomfortable climate in the summer months in the region an air conditioned buffer zone is being provided between the landscaped areas and the actual shop front of the retail areas. All the architectural options have been designed to allow an open air approach with a colonnade for the retail frontages in the winter months and optional air conditioned walkways in the summer months.'

Wow! No more steaming hot days when you go outside at JLT! The Dubai engineers have gotten so advanced they can even change the weather from hot to cool....outdoors!! I think you will see this type of technology used more and more in The Gulf. I think it will be used extensively throughout Dubailand during the hot summer months to keep visitors comfortable and cool....and coming back year after year!

The following is a complete list of the towers being built at JLT.
