Overview
Meydan Horizon Community Overview
Master Developer
Dubai Holding is the master developer through its subsidiary Meydan Group, which master-plans the land; private developers build each tower on its own plot.
Location
Bu Kadra, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, between Ras Al Khor Road and Dubai-Al Ain Road, facing Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary.
Average Price
AED 2,276 ≈ USD 620 per sq ft for apartments across the community, September 2026 index.
Delivery Status
Early-stage: one completed tower, about a dozen under construction, first developer-stated handovers from the fourth quarter of 2027.
Meydan Horizon is the lagoon district of Meydan, laid out on the former Bukadra land inside Mohammed Bin Rashid City. The master plan covers 21.5 million square feet and is built around four crystal lagoons, a central waterway of about 2 km, a 4 km waterfront promenade and a central park, with mid- to high-rise residential towers, branded residences, office towers and promenade retail on individual plots. The community is planned for more than 72,000 residents at full build-out.
For buyers, this is an entry-phase master community: Ellington, Imtiaz, Dubai Investments, DHG, Prescott, Prestige One and Rove Hotels are all building here, prices sit below neighbouring Dubai Creek Harbour and Sobha Hartland 2 on a per square foot basis, and the Blue Line and Gold Line metro stations announced for the wider district arrive in 2029 and 2032. Infrastructure is still being laid, so unit selection and developer selection matter more here than in a delivered community.

Explore the Dubai Holding developer portfolioHistory
From Bukadra to Meydan's Lagoon District
Bu Kadra was a small locality south of Dubai Creek that housed community and sports clubs rather than homes. In 2007 the Dubai government assigned the land to the Meydan City project, and from 2010 the newly formed Meydan Group carried it inside its wider master plan. API Horizon Point, completed in 2020, stood alone on the site for years.
The turning point came in 2024. Claydon House by Ellington launched in March under the new Meydan Horizon name, and days later Meydan and Nakheel were incorporated into Dubai Holding. Launches followed from Imtiaz, DHG, Prescott, Prestige One, Dubai Investments, Centurion and Rove Hotels, and by 2026 the site had moved from open desert to a dozen towers under construction with its substation and water mains underway.
Zones
Zones of Meydan Horizon
Meydan has not published named districts for Meydan Horizon. What the plan shows is a set of zones defined by frontage and use: lagoon-front plots, the sanctuary edge, the office core, and clusters where a single developer holds several neighbouring plots. Here is how the community reads on the ground today.
Lagoon Front
Plots on the crystal lagoons and the central waterway: The Caden, Al Vista, Meraki Lagoons and the Symphony's lagoon-side frontage.
Sanctuary Edge
The north-east boundary facing Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, a protected zone that keeps the open flamingo-reserve views permanent.
Promenade & Central Park
The 4 km waterfront walk with its dining and retail, lagoon beaches, cycle paths and the central park at the heart of the plan.
Ellington Cluster
Claydon House, Highgrove, Belmore, Riverton House, Belgrove, Everly Place and the Eaton Square office building, the largest single-developer holding here.
Meydan Vista
Dubai Investments' two-tower plot: a 39-storey residential tower of 312 homes and a 19-storey office tower, bordered by open space on two sides.
Branded Residences Quarter
Rove Home Meydan Horizon with Rove Hotels and Dubai's first Mouawad-branded residences by Centurion Properties, both hotel- or jeweller-branded towers.
Imtiaz & Prestige One Plots
The Symphony by Zaha Hadid Architects, Wynwood Horizon and Chavelle by Imtiaz, with Parkway, The Waterway and Sanctuary by Prestige One alongside.
Office Core
Strata offices in the Al Vista commercial tower, Eaton Square and The Symphony, giving the district a working population alongside residents.

FAQ
Meydan Horizon Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Meydan Horizon is the brand name for the Bu Kadra (Bukadra) district of Meydan inside Mohammed Bin Rashid City. It sits between Ras Al Khor Road and Dubai-Al Ain Road, directly facing Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, with Dubai Creek Harbour across the road and Sobha Hartland 2 as its neighbour.
Dubai Holding is the master developer through its subsidiary Meydan Group, which joined Dubai Holding in March 2024. Meydan Group master-plans the land and infrastructure, while the towers are built by private developers on individual plots, including Ellington, Imtiaz, Dubai Investments, DHG Properties, Prescott, Prestige One, Centurion and Al Ain Asset Management with Rove Hotels.
Mostly 1 to 3 bedroom apartments in towers of 19 to 39 storeys, with a small number of four-bedroom layouts, duplexes and penthouses, ground-level garden residences, fully furnished hotel-branded residences under the Rove name, Mouawad-branded residences, and strata offices in the Al Vista commercial tower, Eaton Square and The Symphony.
By car it is about 14 minutes to Downtown Dubai and Dubai Mall, 23 minutes to Dubai International Airport, 26 minutes to Palm Jumeirah and 44 minutes to Al Maktoum International Airport, with direct access from Ras Al Khor Road, Dubai-Al Ain Road and Al Khail Road. There is no metro station yet. The Blue Line's Ras Al Khor and Dubai Creek Harbour stations are scheduled to open in September 2029, and the Gold Line's Meydan station, planned as an Etihad Rail interchange, in September 2032.
Apartments across the community averaged AED 2,276 per square foot, approximately USD 620, in the September 2026 index, with registered off-plan sales in early October 2026 ranging from about AED 2,250 to 2,850 per square foot, approximately USD 613 to 776. Launch entry prices for a one-bedroom start from about AED 1.6 million, approximately USD 436,000. Pricing varies by tower, view line, floor and payment plan.
The master plan covers 21.5 million square feet, about 2 square kilometres, and is planned for more than 72,000 residents at full build-out. As of October 2026 only one tower, API Horizon Point from 2020, is complete; about a dozen towers are under construction and developer-stated handovers run from the fourth quarter of 2027 to the second quarter of 2029, with Claydon House, Highgrove and Al Vista among the earliest.
The case rests on entry pricing and location: apartments trade below neighbouring Dubai Creek Harbour at AED 2,621, approximately USD 714, and Sobha Hartland 2 at AED 2,480, approximately USD 675, per square foot, the sanctuary frontage cannot be built out, and two metro lines are announced for the wider district. The risks are real too: community roads and utilities are still being laid, there are no handovers or rental records yet, and many towers complete in the same 2027 to 2029 window. Developer selection and plot position matter more here than in a delivered community.
The main cost is the 4 percent Dubai Land Department registration fee, plus minor administrative and registration trustee charges. Off-plan purchases are registered through the DLD's interim registry and payments go into the project's DLD-registered escrow account. There is no annual property tax in Dubai. Service charges are set per building by the DLD's Mollak system at handover; as of October 2026 no Meydan Horizon building has a published rate, so budget on the developer's estimate in the sales agreement.
A property or portfolio with a DLD-certified value of AED 2 million, approximately USD 545,000, or more qualifies the owner for the 10-year renewable property-investor Golden Visa, and off-plan and mortgaged purchases count on their registered value. Most two-bedroom units and many one-bedroom units in Meydan Horizon clear that threshold. The application runs through the Dubai Land Department.
Payments are accepted by cash, bank transfer, manager's cheque and crypto, and every payment goes into the project's DLD-registered escrow account, never to an individual. Off-plan units are routinely reserved and purchased from abroad: the reservation, sales and purchase agreement and payments can all be completed remotely, with signing handled electronically or through a power of attorney.
