Walk
City Walk is built around pedestrian streets and Central Park, and Al Khazzan Park sits right at its edge. Al Wasl Road and Sheikh Zayed Road box it in, so walks beyond it mean crossing busy roads.
Central Park
0.6 km
The park at the heart of the newest part of City Walk. Two of the projects we list carry its name, but Central Park - Erin is 1.5 km from the centre, so check what each unit actually looks over.
Al Khazzan Park
0.1 km
A separate neighbourhood park just off City Walk, the nearest green space to the centre. Quieter than the shopping streets.
The Green Planet
In City Walk
An indoor tropical forest under glass, with birds and sloths, inside City Walk itself.
Dubai Water Canal
2.7 km
The nearest long walk or run by the water, 2.7 km in a straight line. Most people drive there.

Swim
There is no beach within walking distance. Mercato Beach and La Mer are 1.8 and 2.3 km away in a straight line, a short drive across Al Wasl Road.
Mercato Beach
1.8 km
The nearest public beach on our map, on the Jumeirah coast across Al Wasl Road.
La Mer
2.3 km
A beach with a seafront promenade, 2.3 km in a straight line. The better choice if you want somewhere to eat after a swim.
Your building's pool
Most projects
Most of the projects we list mention a pool. If one matters to you, ask Meraas what each building has.

Eat
Eating out is much of the point of City Walk. The restaurants and cafés are on the pedestrian streets around the flats, so you rarely need the car for dinner.
City Walk streets
On foot
Restaurants and cafés along the pedestrian streets, some right below the flats. If you want quiet evenings, ask which side your unit faces.

Restaurants by the Dubai Fountain lake in Downtown, across Sheikh Zayed Road.

What will a 1-bed off-plan flat cost in City Walk?
In the projects we list, every one starts at one bedroom, priced from about AED 1.6 million to AED 2.7 million. DLD figures for the wider Al Wasl area put the median off-plan 1-bed sale at about AED 2.64 million in the year to September 2026, and the gross rental yield on 1-beds at about 5.8%. Prices were checked in November 2026 and change as units sell.
What kinds of homes are there?
Mostly flats, from 1 to 5 bedrooms and from about 690 to 9,450 sq ft. Three of the projects we list also have penthouses. Central Park - Plaza has townhouses, City Walk Crestlane has duplexes, and Central Park - Erin lists villas.
Is there a metro in City Walk?
Not inside City Walk. Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall on the Red Line is 0.9 km in a straight line from the centre, and Financial Centre is 1.2 km. Most residents drive, and Al Wasl Road and Sheikh Zayed Road are slow at rush hour.
Is City Walk good for families?
It can be. Al Khazzan Park and Central Park are close, GEMS Wellington Primary School and Jumeirah Baccalaureate School (IB) are 0.8 and 1.3 km away in a straight line, and Mediclinic is 1.7 km. The trade-off is that most homes are flats in a busy shopping district, not houses with gardens.
When will the new City Walk towers be finished?
City Walk itself is open and lived in. Most of the Meraas projects we list are due in 2027 and 2028. Central Park - Erin had a June 2026 date, which may be out of date, so ask Meraas. The DLD register for the wider Al Wasl area shows more than a dozen projects under way and more not yet started, so expect building work nearby for some years.
