About Dubai
Living in Dubai
Developed by Emaar Properties across roughly two square kilometres between Sheikh Zayed Road and Financial Centre Road, Downtown Dubai is the city's central landmark district. It wraps around Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Fountain lake, Dubai Mall, and the 3.5-kilometre Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard.
Residential buildings here are predominantly high-rise apartment towers and hotel-serviced residences under the Address, Vida, and St. Regis brands, alongside low-rise Arabic-style apartments in Old Town and Old Town Island.
Investment outlook
Downtown Dubai acts as the blue-chip benchmark for Dubai residential real estate. Because land inside the original Emaar master plan is nearly built out, new off-plan launches are limited and attract strong resale liquidity from both end-users and international investors.
Units with direct, unobstructed views of Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain command a clear price and rental premium, and perform well on both annual corporate leases and DTCM-licensed holiday homes.
Amenities & surroundings
Residents can walk to Dubai Mall, Souk Al Bahar, Dubai Opera, and dozens of restaurants lining the boulevard. Burj Park provides open lawn space on the lake island, while the air-conditioned Metro Link bridge connects the district directly to the Red Line.
