Meydan Horizon

Dubai, UAE

Meydan Horizon is a proposed mixed-use master-development, located on a 180 hectare space opposite the Meydan race course, and only minutes away from Meydan One, along with all the attractions it has to offer. Access to Horizon is facilitated by the Dubai-Al Ain highway, as well as the Ras Al Khor highway, which will help provide seamless access to residents, additional visitors and workers within. The future projected metro green line will pass through Horizon, to grant easier access into the area and to add a public transport option to residents and commuters.

Horizon is a world-class development that will eventually be home to over 72,000 people. A 2km long canal will flow through the center of the development, providing the residents with a 4km of boardwalk right at their doorstep. Residents will also be able to enjoy exceptional views of the Ras al Khor sanctuary. Horizon is guaranteed to be a very safe, friendly community due to a start of the art all round security, as well as an intricate street grid pattern with walkways that keep the pedestrians in mind making access areas within the development easily reachable on foot. Horizon’s overall environment will be one that is relaxed and friendly, with various open spaces of refreshing greenery, a wide scale variety of amenities, retail space and community areas.

District 7

Dubai, UAE

District 7 (D-7) is a mixed-use Transit Oriented Development and is planned for a population of approximately 66,000 residents. This project is especially unique as it has brought large national stakeholders such as Etihad Rail, and the Dubai local transportation authority (RTA) together to achieve HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s vision of placing Dubai in a strategic position for the 2020 Expo.

D-7 will be a lifestyle development where residents can live, shop, and work all within walking distance to various amenities. A pedestrian friendly retail-shopping area based on the concept of the old souq will be incorporated into the design and will feature high class retailers, all within a 5 minute walk. D-7 will provide residents and rail commuter’s convenient access to Meydan’s unique hospitality and cultural destinations as well being only a 10 minute drive away from downtown Dubai. D-7 features the very conveniently located Etihad passenger rail which will eventually link Dubai with Abu Dhabi one way, and Ras al Khaimah the other. Most GCC countries will eventually be linked to the Etihad rail, which will provide a unique alternative mode of domestic and international transport, as well as greater connectivity throughout the region.
