Abu Dhabi – Burj Mohammed Bin Rashid, located in the World Trade Center of Abu Dhabi, was awarded the Council on Tall Building and Urban Habitat, (CTBUH), 2015 best Tall Building Award for the Middle East and Africa Region.

The grand tower, named after the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, will also be judged in November at the Awards Symposium in Chicago, as one of four regional winners for the 2015 Best Tall Building Worldwide.

The project, which was launched in November 2014, has not only become one of the iconic buildings in the nation’s capital, but it has also become a sought after residential location for those seeking luxury living. The staggering tower, which sits at 92 floors up, provides splendid views of the city and even gives its residents a direct access to the World Trade Center Mall.

Mohammed AL Mubarak, CEO of Aldar takes pride in how successful the project has turned out. “We are extremely pleased to have been commended with such a prestigious award.”

Mubarak also stands by the vision on the growth and development of the capital. “Burj Bin Rashid is testament to Aldar’s commitment to building flourishing communities and enhancing the lives of those who live in, work in and visit Abu Dhabi,” he said.
