About MBR City
MBR City is being developed by Meydan Group, the masterminds behind iconic developments like the Meydan Racecourse. The development has been planned to blend high-end living with modern urban infrastructure, with a focus on sustainability and connectivity. Located in the heart of Dubai, MBR City offers villas and high-rise apartments, each offering different lifestyle needs.
The development was initiated in 2012 and includes sub-developments like District One and Sobha Hartland, which are in various stages of development. The residential apartments have contemporary design, green spaces, and spacious floor plans, attracting investors and families.
One of the distinguishing aspects of MBR City is its incorporation of parklands and water bodies, such as artificial lagoons and expansive parks. These add to the appeal of the community, especially for its residents looking for a calm but connected lifestyle.
With its future-proof design, planned metro links, and upscale facilities, MBR City can become a leading urban node in Dubai. Its strategically linked location to main highways and top landmarks ensures sustained demand and good investment attraction.
