Central Park Plaza at City Walk, by Meraas Holding
Central Park Plaza is a residential development by Meraas Holding in City Walk, Dubai. The project sits within Central Park at City Walk, a landscaped precinct inside one of Dubai's most walkable urban districts. City Walk is a pedestrian-friendly neighbourhood built around open-air retail, dining, and public parks. It occupies a central position in Dubai, flanked by Business Bay to the east and Al Safa to the west, with Downtown Dubai less than five minutes away by car.
For residents, this location delivers genuine daily convenience. Supermarkets, restaurants, and green space are on the doorstep. Commuters heading to Business Bay or DIFC can expect a 10 to 15-minute drive in normal traffic. Dubai International Airport is roughly 25 minutes. For investors, City Walk's density of F&B, retail, and leisure at ground level supports tenant demand from professionals and families who want urban convenience without moving to a high-rise corridor.
What the Price Range Actually Tells You
At AED 2,727,000 at the entry end and AED 31,750,000 at the top, the gap here is substantial. This is not a case of marginal variation across floor levels. The spread reflects a genuine mix of unit formats under one roof, from one-bedroom apartments to five-bedroom penthouses and townhouses.
The AED 2.7 million entry point lands in a one-bedroom apartment. This is suited to a single professional or an investor seeking a rental unit in a walkable urban address. The AED 4.5 million to AED 7 million band covers two and three-bedroom apartments, attracting families and upgraders from nearby mid-market buildings. Above that, four-bedroom apartments start at AED 19.5 million, and the five-bedroom penthouses and townhouses top out at AED 31.75 million across approximately 7,212 sq ft. Those are distinct products for buyers seeking large-format urban homes, not standard apartment buyers.
Four Formats Across Two Towers
The project spans two towers, Tower A and Tower B, and offers apartments, duplexes, penthouses, and townhouses. Apartments run from one to four bedrooms. Duplexes suit buyers who want split-level living within a managed building. The penthouses and townhouses, at 7,212 sq ft, are for families who want house-scale floor plans in an urban location without the maintenance of a standalone villa.
The one and two-bedroom apartments are the natural pick for investors. The three and four-bedroom apartments serve owner-occupier families who want proximity to City Walk's amenities and the business districts without sacrificing indoor space.
What the Building Offers
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Fitness & Wellness | Health Club |
| Water & Leisure | Beach Access, Shared Pool |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Safety | Security |
Beach access is the item that stands out. City Walk is an inland address, so residents gain a coastal amenity they would otherwise need to drive to. This is meaningful for families and adds practical lifestyle value that the shared pool alone would not deliver. The health club, pool, on-site restaurants, and children's play area together point to a project built primarily around families and residents who want amenities close to home rather than the exercise-only facilities typical of investor-led towers.
October 2026: What the Timeline Means Now
Construction started in December 2023 and the expected completion date is October 2026. That puts a buyer entering today approximately 16 months from handover.
The project is through its construction start milestone with a fixed delivery date on record. For an off-plan buyer entering at this stage, the window to handover is shorter than typical for a project of this scale. The construction phase is underway, and the timeline is visible.
Paying in Three Stages: 20% to Enter
| Payment Stage | Share of Price |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 50% |
| At handover | 30% |
A 20% down payment is the entry cost here. The construction phase carries the heaviest load at 50%, spread across installments through to October 2026. The final 30% falls at handover. There is no post-handover phase, so the full purchase price closes out at the point of key collection. On a AED 31.75 million penthouse, the 30% handover payment alone reaches AED 9.5 million, which is the figure that matters most for buyers at the upper end of the range.
