Al Waha Residences is a distinguished residential project developed by Expo City Dubai that artfully repurposes legacy infrastructure from the historic Expo 2020 site into contemporary luxury homes. Named after the signature “Al Waha” shading canopies that define its architecture, the development is spread across two prime districts—Mobility plus Opportunity. This community provides a boutique collection of 284 units, including 1 to 3-bedroom apartments and expansive duplex lofts that showcase soaring ceilings up to 6 meters.

As of February 2026, the project has maintained significant momentum with construction reaching approximately 47% completion. Following the official appointment of key contractors like ARCO Group and Al Futtaim Contracting in early 2026, the development is firmly on track for its June 2027 handover. While initial developer stock is sold out, Al Waha remains a high-demand investment on the secondary market, valued for its unique “pavilion-style” living and its strategic position midway between the existing Dubai city center plus the Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) expansion.

Why Invest in Al Waha Residences

• Scarcity Factor: With only 284 units and a design that cannot be replicated elsewhere, Al Waha possesses a “collector’s item” status in Dubai real estate.
• Economic Gateway: Situated at the heart of the D33 economic agenda hub, the development is ideally located for professionals in the aviation and tech sectors.
• Proven ROI: Recent resale transactions show 2-bedroom units selling for over AED 3.5M, reflecting strong capital appreciation from the initial launch price.
• Walkable Lifestyle: The community promotes a car-free, “15-minute city” lifestyle, which is increasingly preferred by high-value tenants.
• Government-Backed: Developed by the group responsible for Expo 2020, ensuring the highest level of community maintenance and infrastructure reliability.
