Mubadala begins development of Al Maryah Waterfront enhancement project
This initiative includes innovative features such as AI-powered water shows, a spherical seawater installation, and expanded public spaces designed to boost engagement in the area.
One of the key highlights of the development is a 30m-high luminous sphere surrounded by more than 1,000 AI-driven water jets, which will perform choreographed displays. These features are designed by WET, a US-based company credited for creating the Dubai Fountain.
The Al Maryah Waterfront enhancement project also plans to extend the sea boardwalk, providing enhanced access to the waterfront. It will also have shaded cooling systems for comfort during hotter seasons.
New food and beverage zones and event-ready public spaces are expected to further elevate guest experiences.
According to Mubadala, these enhancements are envisioned to provide a range of amenities catering to diverse lifestyle and entertainment needs.
Once completed, the Al Maryah Waterfront enhancement project is expected to support Abu Dhabi's tourism ambitions by offering premium opportunities for leisure, culture, and commerce.
It aligns with Mubadala's broader objectives of promoting a sustainable and competitive urban landscape in Abu Dhabi.
Mubadala UAE Investments CEO Bakheet Al Katheeri said: 'The Al Maryah Waterfront enhancement project is a strategic investment in the future of Al Maryah Island.
"This project will deliver iconic elements that elevate the quality of life and offer a diverse experience for visitors while reinforcing the island's position as a premier lifestyle destination.'
Al Maryah Island serves as a key business and lifestyle hub in Abu Dhabi. It hosts the Abu Dhabi Global Market, an international financial centre, along with retail outlets, dining options, hospitality services, and Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.
The island is surrounded by a waterfront promenade that frequently hosts significant events in the city.
In late 2024, Mubadala, in partnership with Aldar Properties, launched construction on the One Maryah Place development on Al Maryah Island.
This project includes two interconnected towers offering office space, a rooftop dining venue, ground-floor retail units, and additional amenities.
"Mubadala begins development of Al Maryah Waterfront enhancement project" was originally created and published by World Construction Network, a GlobalData owned brand.

Genesis G90s With Brush Guards And Lights Are The Coolest Way To Transport VIPs
From the indomitable tank of a Cadillac limo that our top government official rides in to the fleet of blacked-out American SUVs that swarm around it, the U.S. has an intimidating fleet of vehicles to ferry VIPs around in. I think, though, that Kuwait's new fleet of 47 Genesis G90s might be even cooler. Genesis' flagship sedan is already one of the most distinctive vehicles on sale today, but adding the chic-for-a-government-vehicle electric blue and yellow livery, brush guards and light bars makes them look downright rad. According to Korea JoongAng Daily, this new fleet of G90s will include 40 cars that will be used for official ceremonies and protocol operations and seven that will be used to transport high-ranking officials. Genesis says that all 47 of these G90s were custom-built to meet official specifications and design standards as approved by the ministry's General Traffic Department.

The new G90s (maybe the G stands for Government in this case) will have the sedan's standard powertrain, a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 that produces 375 horsepower and 391 pound-feet of torque paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Genesis Middle East and Africa CEO Omar Alszubaidi said, "We are honored by the Ministry of Interior's selection of the Genesis G90 for official ceremonial and protocol use in Kuwait.... We look forward to continuing to support Kuwait's leadership with premium experiences that embody the true essence of modern luxury." These G90s won't be transporting any baddies in the back seat, but whomever gets the privilege of parking their pampered posterior in the rear seat of one of these limo-lite luxury sedans will be treated to the utmost in comfort. And consider this an official petition to bring brush guards to more full-sized luxury sedans. They make the G90 look so mean, and I love it. Want more like this?
