DUBAI — In a massive expansion of Dubai's luxury urban landscape, Emaar Properties announced Thursday its plans for a Dh200 billion mega-development. Designed to accommodate nearly 150,000 residents, the visionary masterplan promises to be a fully integrated, future-ready community.
Spanning more than 4.5 million square meters, the ambitious project will bring together premium residential towers, luxury mansions, Grade-A office spaces, and extensive civic and cultural venues.
While the developer behind the iconic Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Mall has kept the project’s exact location and launch date under wraps, they confirmed that the high-rise towers will feature unobstructed views of the Burj Khalifa, the Burj Al Arab, and the Palm Jumeirah.
Mohamed Alabbar, founder of Emaar Properties, described the upcoming development as the company's "most extraordinary dream yet," combining the finest architecture with immersive landscapes.
“This development reflects our deep confidence in the future of the UAE,” Alabbar said. “This is Emaar at its most ambitious, and Dubai at its most inspiring.”
Pioneering the 20-Minute City
Built around the modern concept of a "20-minute city," the community will prioritize pedestrian accessibility, EV-friendly pathways, and advanced smart mobility. Essential amenities — including schools, healthcare facilities, high-end retail, and mosques — will all be located within a short walk.
Furthermore, app-integrated community management and robust digital infrastructure are set to make daily living highly efficient and effortless.

Nature Meets Urban Living
A major highlight of the new masterplan is its sweeping integration of nature. The community will feature swimmable lagoons, winding water streams, and tranquil lakes, all connected by shaded promenades and dedicated cycling paths.
A massive district park will act as the social core of the development, offering sports courts, splash parks, beach areas, and outdoor wellness zones.
Five Tailored Lifestyle Zones
To cater to diverse demographics and needs, the project will be divided into five specialized character zones:
The Business Hub: A world-class commercial environment designed for professionals and global enterprises.
The Urban District: A vibrant, high-energy center celebrating the diversity of modern city life.
The Young Families Cluster: An innovative, active setting specifically tailored for new parents and children.
The Family Living Zone: A peaceful, stable enclave focused on long-term community connection.
The Exclusive Villa Enclave: The crown jewel of the development, offering ultra-luxury five- and six-bedroom mansions complete with private gardens, cascading water features, and resort-style amenities.
