DUBAI SOUTH

APARTMENTS • TOWNHOUSES

Developer & Vision

Dubai South (formerly known as Dubai World Central) is a master-planned city spanning 145 square kilometers. It was envisioned as “The City of You” — a people-centric, sustainable urban hub. The development is anchored by Al Maktoum International Airport (set to become the world’s largest) and the Expo 2020 site, which has since transformed into Expo City Dubai.

The community is designed to support Dubai’s long-term growth, with residential, commercial, logistics, aviation, and free-zone districts. It is one of the most promising areas for long-term investment and affordable housing in Dubai.
