Building DNA in Dubai Marina
Select Group · 2012
Marina 23, decoded
Marina 23 trades at a small discount to the central Marina cluster on paper, but operating burden has crept up over five years — the negotiation room is wider than the asking price suggests.
Open Building DNA →Cayan Group · 2013
Cayan Tower, decoded
Cayan Tower is the Marina's architectural-premium reference — SOM-designed 90° spiral, structurally non-replicable in the cluster. The premium over Marina 23 is real and durable; it's a trophy-status play, not a yield play.
