Diyar al Muharraq launches in Bahrain

by ArabianBusiness.com staff writer  on Tuesday, 01 July 2008

The US $3.2 billion Diyar al Muharraq city project has launched in Bahrain.

 The design of the reclaimed island city near Manama will take its cues from the traditional architecture of Muharraq, the former capital of Bahrain.

CEO Aaref Hejres said the project was currently seeking a lead architect, and indicated that he will consider international and regional firms for the project.
