Twin towers in the Opera District of Downtown Dubai
Forte is a pair of residential towers by Emaar in the Opera District of Downtown Dubai. Emaar's brochure names the Japanese practice Nikken Sekkei as the architect. The two towers, one of 70 floors and the other of 50, sit together on a shared podium within direct sight of Dubai Opera, Opera Plaza and The Dubai Fountain.
The brochure gives the complex as some 850 residential units, from one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom family homes. One-bedroom units start at 600 sq ft. It describes interiors in marble, ceramics, steel and wool, with fixtures and fittings chosen to suit whatever furnishings an owner adds.
Retail, dining and cafés are built into the podium. Emaar's brochure also set out plans for a museum of modern art on the podium levels, covering 12,000 sq m. Residents park on five basement levels, and guests use boulevard-level public parking.
The DLD project register records construction from 1 September 2016 and a 100% construction inspection on 12 September 2023.
