Yas Island Marina-Hotel - Pole Position in Abu Dhabi

Yas Island Marina Hotel - Pole position in Abu Dhabi.

Many of the projects conceived for Dubai and Abu Dhabi as part of the development and design goldrush of the past years are not only impressive by their enormous scale, but also their demanding delivery dates. This is especially the case when building for the Formula 1 with a race date delivery. In the outer skirts of Abu Dhabi, next to the international airport on Yas Island, a previously empty island, construction for a new Formula 1 racecourse master planned by Tilke GmbH & Co. KG is underway. On and around the racecourse massive developments are being delivered for the first race in November 2009 including vast infrastructure projects. One day Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi's much talked about new cultural district equally built from scratch, will be accessed from here. Not the existing urban fabric or context is the theme, everything is newly developed and everything claims individuality.
