In 2019, J. Richard Hill & Co. was engaged by Erada to organize a development team to respond to a Request for Proposals from the General Aviation Authority for a 3,000,000 square foot site located adjacent to the Jeddah International Airport.
Seldom does such a large undeveloped and highly strategic parcel at the gateway of an international airport that serves a cosmopolitan city of over 4-million and a region of over 8 million, present itself for development.
J. Richard Hill & Co. on behalf of Erada recruited a world-class team of consultants consisting of Gensler, HKS, ECA, DG Jones, WET, Thinkwell, and Cirque du Soleil to create a conceptual master plan, vision plan, building plan, and financial plan. J. Richard Hill negotiated agreements, managed the design process, and conducted extensive market research to develop the economic projections.
