Nakheel, a subsidiary of Dubai Holding, has awarded the AED 1.8 billion construction contract for the Como Residences tower on Palm Jumeirah to ALEC Engineering & Contracting. The luxury residential tower is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2028. It will have 75 floors, rising to a total height of over 300 metres, and will feature 81 residential units ranging from two to seven bedrooms, including a duplex penthouse. Each floor will have a maximum of two apartments, with private lifts leading to individual lobbies. Each apartment will have stunning 180-degree views of the sea and the city skyline, while apartments located from the 23rd floor onwards will enjoy stunning 360-degree panoramic views of Burj Al Arab to the east and Ain Dubai to the west.
