The Churchgate group successfully negotiated the rights to the World
Trade Center licence for real estate initiatives in the capital city of
Nigeria; and now Abuja’s new landmark destination, that will be the
commercial and residential jewel of Africa, has already commenced
construction.
Churchgate has been a driving force of corporate
activity in Nigeria for over 40 years; “the group has always reflected
the spirit of the times” says Vinay Mahtani, Churchgate’s group Managing
director. he adds; “and we are proud that the WTC Abuja will represent a
true celebration of Nigeria’s economic progress”.
Churchgate
has already developed and currently operates Churchgate Towers l & 2
on Victoria Island as well as the Churchgate Plaza in Abuja. The
existing tenants that enjoy these luxury office spaces are amongst the
Fortune 500 companies of the world. A Churchgate Tower 3 is in the
planning stages for Victoria Island adjacent to its two sister towers.
Churchgate
has also acquired a historical landsite on Victoria Island on which it
intends on developing The Grand Hyatt Hotel and Residences. This 5 star
hotel will be poised as one of the most important landmarks in Lagos.
This former site of the Australian embassy is located adjacent to major
roadways and the hotel will accommodate 400 upscale suites and 149 ultra
luxurious residences; the residences will be grand in size and the
proud owners will benefit from many of the hotel amenities and services
that The Grand Hyatt will offer.
“The proposed building site for
the World Trade Center on Constitution Avenue will be the premier
address in Nigeria for retail, office space and residential” claims
David Belinko, who is Churchgate’s Chief Marketing Officer. “The master
plan provides for areas of public gathering, services and amenities
unlike anything Nigeria has ever experienced and will rank amongst the
most desirable locations to live and work on the continent”.
The
site boasts of a sense of arrival with magnificent landscaping; the
landscape architects on the project took full advantage of the
topography to create a 100% secure environment.
The first WTC
Residence by Churchgate will comprise of only 133 residential units
which should sell out very quickly due to their unique nature, the
present scarcity of upscale residences and of course their unbeatable
location.
The World Trade Center in Abuja will integrate
superbly with the city and the rest of the country. Both local and
national train stations are currently under construction are adjacent to
the WTC site.
With the proposed 40,000 Sq. Meters of shopping
in the new Capital Mall, a branded hotel, twin tower office space for
the corporations of the world, and a real-estate component, the World
Trade Center in Abuja has something for everyone and will surely satisfy
the commercial and lifestyle needs of its future occupants and
clientele. Located on Constitution Avenue across from the prestigious
Churchgate Plaza. Completion scheduled for 2013.
