All building from arab bank roundabout till old Qtel signal are supposedly targeted for the next round of demolition. Also the buildings which has the Modern Home showroom and its vicinity. Anyone can confirm ??? I also heard that they have given the souq shopkeepers notice to vacate ??? (Souq Faleh, Nasser Bin Saif, Souq Doha etc.)

BTW Rydges Plaza is also slated to come down after Doha Asian Games !!!

I have known about this for some months. It is not coming down right after the games though. It will be pulled down sometime in the Spring. I think your reservation is safe.

The rumour i heard that Emir don't like the people on the top floor can see direct into his garden, so he ordered the hotel to be demolish.

Can anyone confirm that pls?
