With the first phase of the $1.5 billion BFH, declared open early last month, developers of the project – Gulf Finance House, said that work is continuing on a brisk pace on the development of Phase II of the project.

Phase I of the project ‘The Financial Centre’, which is also the main business district, includes the Harbour Towers – Bahrain’s tallest towers – and the Harbour Mall. The Harbour Towers will provide prime office and commercial space for the financial services industry while the Harbour Mall will house high quality retail outlets and cafes, other leisure facilities as well as brokerage and trading firms.
Phase II of the project includes the $450 million Villamar @ the Harbour, which forms a key residential component.
Conceived as an integrated financial city, coming up on the Manama Corniche, and spread over 380,000 sq m of prime seafront property, the BFH aims at re-enforcing Bahrain’s position as the financial capital of the Middle East and further enhancing the attractiveness of GCC as a whole for global financial sector players.
