Mohammed Bin Rashid City

Mohammed Bin Rashid City, popularly known as MBR City, is one of the biggest mixed-use developments and freehold areas in Dubai. Announced in the latter half of 2012 by the ruler of the emirate His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the estimated cost of the project is AED 30 billion. The development is home to state-of-the-art tourist attractions, a hub of leisure activities, the biggest shopping Centre in the world, a large-scale park, the world’s largest man-made lagoon and 45 million sq. ft. of freehold property. This project was inaugurated by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid himself in May 2015.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> MBR City was expected to reach its full completion by 2020. While handovers have begun and most parts of the area are already through, many new projects have been added over time. Today, the community offers high-rise and mid-rise apartment buildings, luxurious villas and townhouses for rent and sale, alike. Located amidst Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) and Al Khail Road (E44), the community is well-connected. Those with school-going children will find that the area features two international educational institutions; Hartland International School and North London Collegiate School.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> Made famous thanks to the presence of the Meydan Hotel in the vicinity, MBR City will also be an interesting community for animal lovers, with both an equestrian and falcon center in the area. With various eateries, entertainment centers, retail shops and many more futuristic developments coming up, MBR City creates a community with a bustling environment in an ultra-modern setting.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> While Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum City is a sprawling community, some of the popular projects within the area include Sobha Hartland, District One, Mag Eye at Meydan (formerly known as District 7), District 11 and Dubai Hills Estate.
