Plans on show at Cityscape Qatar in Doha included more than 600 apartments at Lusail Marina and a waterfront street designed for pedestrians. Developers and architects discussed how to keep building costs down and make it easier for residents to get around on foot in summer.
Cityscape Qatar brought together 70 exhibitors from more than 15 countries in Doha, with 400 projects on show. Homes ranged from studio flats to five- and six-bedroom villas. Visitors could ask developers where schools and hospitals would go and how they would get around once they moved in.
Among the projects were two towers planned for Lusail Marina with more than 600 apartments. The developer explained how working out construction costs early could help keep prices down. Elsewhere on the Lusail waterfront, architects explained how shade and cooling along a planned shopping street could help residents walk to the shops even in summer.
Discussions also covered what matters once people move in, from safe paths and nearby parks to a reliable landlord and a well-managed building. One example was an AI search tool that lets buyers and renters describe the kind of school they need and where they work, then suggests neighbourhoods that suit both journeys.
