Emaar Properties PJSC, the global developer of iconic projects, is presenting the much-awaited showcase of The Opera District in Downtown Dubai, in addition to other sought-after lifestyle developments in Dubai and key international markets, at Cityscape Global 2014 to be held at the Dubai International Convention Centre.

In addition to a spectacular display of Downtown Dubai, Emaar’s flagship development, The Opera District, billed to be the UAE’s cultural hub, will take centre-stage at Emaar’s pavilion. Recently, Emaar has added several new lifestyle projects to the 500-acre community, which has recorded strong interest from regional and international investors.

Located within Downtown Dubai, The Opera District will captivate visitors with its Dubai Opera, a 2000-seat multipurpose performing arts centre, inspired by the city’s maritime history. The new development will feature luxury hotels, elegantly designed residential and serviced apartments, a retail plaza, restaurants, waterfront promenades, recreational spaces and parks.

Among the newest additions to Downtown Dubai include: The Address Residence The BLVD, The Address Residence Sky View and The Address Residence Fountain Views, which offer the convenient lifestyle choice of serviced residences in the heart of the city. Another new addition to the premium neighbourhood is Burj Vista. Apartments in all of these buildings are now offered for sale on the secondary market and you may contact us here to inquire about the current availability.

A key component of Emaar’s project repertoire, The Address Residence Sky View appeals so much to property investors that it is hard to find units even on the secondary market. The luxurious twin-tower complex consists of a 58 and 54-storey hotel, residences and serviced apartments. Located within Downtown, The Address Residence Sky View offers panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf, Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Fountain. A two bedroom apartment of approximately 1500 sq.ft. now costs from 4.5 million to 4.9 million, while a three bedroom unit is offered for approximately 6 million Dirhams.

Downtown Dubai, described as ‘The Centre of Now,’ will be featured centrally at Cityscape Global as Emaar’s striking example of how architecture and modern planning contribute to creating urban masterpieces.

Demonstrating the company’s focus on project execution, Emaar will display models of Burj Khalifa, as well as organise a public seminar on the unique features that make the world’s tallest building a compelling global icon. The architects and engineering team of Burj Khalifa, Chicago-based Skidmore, Owings and Merrill (SOM), will deliver the detailed presentation that provides insightful views on the making of architectural history.

Other attractions in Downtown Dubai that will take centre-stage at Cityscape Global are The Dubai Mall and the ongoing 1 million sq. ft. expansion of its Fashion Avenue, and The Dubai Fountain, the world’s tallest performing fountain.

Emaar’s portfolio of projects in Dubai at Cityscape will also include The Hills, a four-tower complex with two dedicated residential buildings in addition to a Vida Hotel and Vida serviced apartments, which is part of the popular Emirates Living development, Emaar’s pioneering integrated communities in Dubai. A one bedroom apartment at Vida Residence Downtown is priced at around 2 million on the secondary market, while 2 bedroom units can be found with price tags of around 4 million and 3 bedrooms could cost investors around 6 million. These prices are now very competitive with the prices of already completed and functional properties in The Downtown Dubai, but despite that fact, the off plan apartments by Emaar are in a high demand among investors.

With over 36,600 residences and 4.3 million sq ft of commercial space handed over in Dubai and its key international markets, Emaar has a proven track-record in the delivery of world-class homes and offices. Visitors to Cityscape Global can be part of a dynamic customer journey that will take them through the impressive portfolio of established and upcoming projects by the company. Having established its competencies in shopping malls & retail and hospitality & leisure, the projects on display are also strong examples of the diversified growth approach of Emaar.
