Solidere plans to develop a 220 billion dirham ($59.8 billion) coastal city in the UAE sheikhdom of Ajman that will offer freehold status to investors.

The vast ‘Al Zorah’ project will be jointly developed by the government of Ajman and Solidere International, a unit of the company also known as The Lebanese Company for the Development and Reconstruction of Beirut Central District.

The project will include 5-star hotels and golf courses, according to a statement issued to reporters ahead of a press conference in Ajman on Thursday.
