PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE OF WORKS

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 The Crest

The Owner’s vision is to develop The Crest as a High Rise Luxury Residential Complex with aim to
achieve higher standards for delivery to upscale Customers. The Project is being launched after
successful completion of Park Place and Belaire projects. The Development is also in continual
progressive development of the land parcels of Phase V. The Project is located in Zone 11 & 12 of
the Phase V, DLF City.

This Residential Development is primarily directed towards upper middle to upper class with higher
standards and deliverables adopted than current Developments. The overall Quality standards
adopted will match International standards. DLF has appointed Architect Hafeez Contractor as the
Principal Architect along with WSP as Integrated MEPF and Structural Peer Review Consultant while
Manish Consultants are the Structural Consultants for the Project. GCH, USA are appointed as
Landscaping Consultants.

There are a number of developments springing in vicinity and it is therefore essential that the stock
provided is unique, specifically aligned with the end user requirements and aspirations in the present
day context to secure reasonable market share.

The Development will provide recreational areas, with a pool and gymnasium and some sports
facilities. The rest of the areas within the plot will be tastefully landscaped by GCH, USA.
