I think I've done my homework. Across the road, i.e. in the Marina, sqft prices are well above 2000 dhs, even for unfinished projects. If though it's prime location, most of the buildings are standing tight and many without any view.

In JLT on the other hand, sqft prices are around 1300-1400 for 2BRs for projects being finished right now, and 1500-1600 for 1 BRs. I think that's reasonable? Finished are going around 2000 as well, so my opinion is that there is space to grow. If Marina prices are still going up, JLT should follow right behind.

Well, we'll see...
