Emaar Properties has unveiled Dubai Square Business District, a new commercial development valued at AED12 billion ($3.27 billion) within Dubai Creek Harbour.
The project will deliver approximately 300,000 square metres of commercial and office space alongside Dubai Square, the wider development's retail and entertainment destination.
The proposed district will integrate office towers with transport infrastructure, hospitality facilities, residential communities and public spaces.
The business district will feature premium commercial buildings surrounding Dubai Square, with direct access to retail, dining, entertainment and hospitality facilities.
Emaar's plans position the development as an integrated commercial destination rather than a standalone office cluster.
The new Dubai Creek Tower is also envisioned as a landmark within the wider masterplan, contributing to the district's architectural identity.
Mohamed Alabbar, Founder of Emaar, described the development as a destination intended to attract businesses seeking connectivity and access to a wider urban community.
Transport integration is central to the proposed development.
Two metro stations will directly serve the business district, with office buildings connected to the stations through climate-controlled pedestrian links.
Across Dubai Creek Harbour, the wider transport network is planned to include three metro stations, 17 bus stops and a seven-kilometre Discovery Loop.
These connections are intended to improve movement between commercial buildings, residential areas, retail destinations and public spaces.
The development will also incorporate access to Dubai Creek Harbour's Iconic Metro Station.
Four hotels are planned around Dubai Square, with eight hotels across the wider masterplan.
The commercial district will feature three parks, forming part of a larger network of 15 parks and four ecological green corridors.
Open spaces will account for approximately 13% of the overall masterplan.
Dubai Creek Harbour is planned to accommodate around 200,000 residents across more than 200 residential towers and approximately 75,500 homes.
Supporting infrastructure will include seven schools, 14 nurseries, two hospitals, 25 clinics, 11 mosques and more than 70 community shops.
The waterfront development will also feature a 4.5-kilometre promenade and a 600-metre urban beach.
The AED12 billion investment represents a major addition to Emaar's commercial development pipeline.
By combining office space with public transport, residential communities, retail and leisure facilities, the developer aims to create a business district supporting both employment and everyday urban activity.
The announcement outlines the project's development vision and planned infrastructure but does not specify a confirmed completion date for the office district.
As Dubai Creek Harbour continues to expand, Dubai Square Business District is expected to contribute to the area's emergence as a major mixed-use commercial destination.
