Downtown Dubai is Emaar's signature development and the district most people picture when they think of the company — revealed in 2003 and built around Burj Khalifa, which opened in 2010 and remains the world's tallest building, and The Dubai Mall, one of the world's busiest shopping and leisure destinations (reportedly over 80 million visitors in 2014, the most recent figure we could independently source). It's a largely built-out, mature district today rather than an active off-plan launch, so the figures below are secondary-market snapshots rather than Emaar's own primary pricing.
What we know so far (secondary-market data via fäm Properties, trailing 3 months, and independent press coverage)
| Metric | Reported figure |
|---|---|
| Burj Khalifa opened | 2010 — world's tallest building |
| The Dubai Mall | Soft-opened Nov 2008, inaugurated May 2009; 1,200+ stores |
| Secondary-market transactions (trailing 3 months) | ~720, at an average of ~AED 2,600 per sq ft |
This is a mature, largely delivered district, so we're showing secondary-market activity rather than an off-plan price list — we haven't been sent current primary pricing, floor plans or availability for any live Downtown Dubai launch directly from Emaar or a channel partner. Ask us and we'll check current availability with Emaar directly.
