Jumeirah Garden City
Jumeirah Garden City occupies the land from Al Satwa across to Sheikh Zayed Road and forms part of Meraas' redevelopment of the Al Satwa area. Its plan is a grid of streets at medium density, where residential blocks share the district with retail, hotels and green space.
The district's current shape is the product of a long revision. The first scheme, drawn in 2008, imagined a canal flanked by very tall towers; the financial crisis that year led to the canal being dropped and the plan being cut back. Three other parts of that original vision were completed between 2013 and 2020: City Walk, the Pearl Jumeirah island and Jumeirah Bay.
A revised Jumeirah Garden City masterplan was issued in 2016, and residential plots were offered freehold to private developers. Construction started to show in 2017, the first buildings were complete by 2019, and by the summer of 2021 about 50 buildings stood finished and roughly 25 more were at various stages. Almost everything that stood in the area before was cleared; what was kept is the Obai Bin Kaab Masjid together with some utility installations.
