I don’t care what the retail tenant mix is going to be like as long as I am able to brisk walk inside the mall my daily quota of 2.5 kms even on a hot summer’s day.
Space is the true USP of the Avenues.

Wait until The Lakes opens next year, you will be really amazed. It will be next to the avenues.

I just hope that the people that go won’t ruin the place just by hanging out there and causing a rukus!

My big concern is the kind of “people” who will be cruising specially when it’s located on the 5th Ring …. 3aqaaaaaaaad + 9alaaab all the way … Allah yaster! :(

just got back..and yes its big and my feet hurt. they do have all the same stores we’re use to seeing plus a couple new ones. i went to see if gap was open, but it wasn’t..they said maybe another 3 weeks..also i didn’t see any signs for banana republic..but i did see that forever 21 will be opening..so thats pretty cool. The new Zara store is pretty nice (was never really a fan before), i picked up a few things for my daughter.. Oh and the Vavavoom store carries georgio armani cosmetics which is cool..it will be nice when all the stores open..happy shopping..

It kinda looks like the bastard child of Wafi in Dubai and Marina Mall in Abu Dhabi…And that’s not a bad thing!
