The project is located at the entrance to the Damascus Gate Plaza. The area has historic importance and is located at the point where the western and eastern parts of the city intersect.
The city master plan (TABA) proposes to develop the area which has both historic and national significance and includes a public plaza with hotels, commercial and entertainment premises, while taking care to preserve its lively urban ambience.
The urban design and landscaping of the area is planned to integrate the existing national park and façade of Damascus Gate with underground parking for private and public vehicles and a public transportation terminal, an incoming logistics terminal for unloading and distribution of supplies for the Old City and Damascus Gate markets, and an area for municipal and emergency services.
