Damac and MBCC officials at the signing ceremony.

Damac Properties has announced that it had awarded the main works package for the development of its 52-storey tower – Damac Harbour Lights – as well as a five-storey parking block located in Dubai to Modern Building Contracting Company (MBCC), a leading construction group in UAE. 

Strategically positioned between Port Rashid and Dubai’s Drydocks World, Damac Harbour Lights offers spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments designed to reflect the emirate’s maritime history while providing modern seafront living, along with a range of modern amenities, said the developer.

Inspired by the Greek word ‘Chrysogonos,’ meaning ‘begotten of gold,’ the design incorporates elements of opulence and grandeur associated with maritime history.

Known for its expertise in executing large-scale projects across Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, and Lebanon, MBCC brings a wealth of experience and a strong reputation for quality and reliability to this ambitious project, it stated.

As per the deal, MBCC’s scope of work comprises the main works package, which includes the comprehensive construction of the tower and the parking block.

The construction on the 52-storey tower is well under way, with shoring and piling work already completed.  The focus has now shifted to the basement substructure, setting the stage for the next phases of development. It is expected to be completed by Q2 2027, Damac stated.
