Union Properties launched its mixed-use urban lifestyle destination, Avenue District, at the Cityscape Global 2018 expo in Dubai last month.

Being developed as part of Dubai Motor City Phase Two, the Dh2.8-billion ($680 million) Avenue District will feature an eclectic mix of elegantly designed residential units, and the flagship One Avenue Mall.

The project, spanning over two million sq ft, is another significant milestone in Union Properties’ commitment to delivering best-in-class community living experiences.

Union Properties says the first residential community within the Avenue District, 313 Avenue, will comprise 67 studios, 156 one- and 166 two-bedroom apartments. The contemporary low-rise community offers the finest in leisure, dining, entertainment and sport facilities to residents in the area.

In addition, residents can also benefit from a 52,000-sq-ft retail centre situated conveniently at the ground level of the building, ensuring that provisions and retail needs are easily met.  

The eye-catching Rubik, another residential development in Avenue District, promises to be a uniquely designed structure, offering studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Inspired by a minimalistic style, the building will offer residents access to a large fitness centre overlooking the swimming pools below.

Avenue District will also be home to the ultra-modern 100,000-sq-ft BMW and Mini showroom. The first automotive dealership to open in the area will boast a minimalist and modern design with glass panels allowing a full view of the workshop area.

The facility will use special materials to reduce energy consumption and emissions, as well as incorporate recycling methods for water, oil and batteries to achieve full compliance with Dubai Municipality sustainability regulations.

Located within the Phase Two expansion of Dubai Motor City, Avenue District will be bisected by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and Al Qudra Road that feeds onto Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) via Umm Suqeim Street, allowing ease of access to Dubai International Airport and Dubai Expo 2020.

Motor City is the ultimate entertainment destination, spanning over 38 million sq ft and is located on Mohammed bin Zayed Road within 15 minutes from key landmarks in the city.
