Demolition of Oasis

By westside

I recall seeing some previous posts of when Oasis Hotel was announced for demolition. Now i drive to work and see it being taking down in pieces, along with other older buildings in the area.

 

What i'd really like to know is whether anyone has info on what the plans are for that area? I heard that it maybe used as an extension for the Airport but i'm not sure about this because the new Airport is further back towards the Wakra road.

 

Checkout these shots from my Nokia on the way to work this morning.

Any ideas on the plans for this area?

No roaches will be homeless. The Doha Urban Planning Ministry has promised to relocate them to Al Sharq and the Mariott.

Hey Westside,

your pictures attached with the post reminds me my early days in Qatar when i used to stay there because of not having an accommodation, all their staff was sooo friendly and generous, they helped me in finding an accommodation and specially their chef he sometime made some dishes for me on demand, its really painful to see it in pieces...

 

Pure Love...

Hai guys,

 

For ur kind info, only the Oasis Beach Hotel is being demolished but its club( behind the hotel ) is still in function. I am afraid tht I am not wrong cause i am regular to Gym n swimming .. When I enquired abt the working of club, the manager said that it will function as usual n only that the hotel will be demolished !!!

The only plans for this area are access roads to the New Doha International Airport.
