Doha Sites

Stephen has been working on the Sidra Hospital and Research Center  since January 2013. His time here may be almost complete. The hospital is not done, but the time that Leo A. Daly committed to being here is up at the end of January, so unless a new arrangement is reached, Stephen will be departing.

The design is intended to evoke the image of the sails on the traditional dhow boats seen in the harbor of Doha.

The Gate Mall is one of the glitziest in Doha

The men's room

The women's room

We were fascinated by the bowl fixtures and the lighting in the restrooms. The far wall is also finished in glass tiles with an iridescent finish.

We liked the wooden benches too. The design is better viewed when the benches are free
standing  because they do not have a rear support.

This is a picture in an exhibit called "My Doha"  taken in 1982 - it is part of the Gate Mall today.

These are a few of the skyscrapers that are now standing where all the sandy area is in the previous picture.
