As a Community
Downtown is the face of Dubai. Everything that Dubai is known for including Burj Khalifa – the world’s tallest building, Dubai Mall – the world’s largest shopping mall and Dubai Fountain – the world’s tallest fountain setup is located in this community. Naturally, it is home to some of the most expensive properties in the city. But, the price paid for these properties seem completely justified when you look at the amenities and convenience that Downtown offers. You get restaurants serving every cuisine in the world at your doorstep. You get off the elevator and you have access to all the brands in the world. So, if one can afford, Downtown is one of the best areas to live in Dubai.
Transportation
- Private Transport: Driving to other communities is convenient from Downtown as it is directly connected to the Sheikh Zayed Road. However, traffic within Downtown can be an issue during peak hours in the evening. You can enjoy carefree walks on sidewalks that run throughout the community.
- Public Transport: Metro is the biggest convenience in Downtown. The footbridge from Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall metro station to Dubai Mall makes it even more convenient. Cabs are always available here. Downtown also enjoys frequent bus service.
Properties to Offer
As mentioned earlier, Downtown offers some of the most luxurious properties in the city. With the right amount in your account, you can purchase apartments ranging from studios to 5Brs, penthouses and terraced apartments. Downtown is also an ideal destination for commercial and retail spaces. Shops in building on the sides of the well-lit streets make a good prospect for the F&B industry.
