Construction Snapshot
One River Point at a Glance
One River Point is a single Ellington Properties tower of 295 residences in Business Bay, placed by the developer's project brief on a plot overlooking the Dubai Canal, and registered with the Dubai Land Department as project 2929. The register shows construction starting on 24 October 2023, 93 days before the project's registration on 25 January 2024, and both dates appear below exactly as recorded. About 33 months after that start, the 21 July 2026 reading stood at 35.43%, with five podium levels and 37 residential floors in the design still being built out above completed foundations.

Inspection Record
One River Point Construction Update Timeline
The register holds two readings for One River Point, and only the later one carries a date: 35.43% on 21 July 2026. The earlier 28.79% is listed as the previous inspection with no date beside it, so it sits on the track as a dot without a month and has no table row of its own. The single dated row links the July 2026 update, which sets the reading next to that day's RERA notes.

Pace Analysis
How Fast One River Point Has Been Built
With a single dated reading on the register, One River Point has no inspection-to-inspection pace yet. What the record does support is one whole-build average, worked from the construction start:
- Oct 2023 to Jul 2026: construction start to 35.43%, over 1,001 daysAbout 1.06 points per month
- Previous reading to Jul 2026: 28.79% to 35.43%, earlier date not on the registerNo dated pace available
The 1.06 figure is arithmetic, not a forecast, and the record shows why it describes the build to date rather than the rate on site today. Much of the 1,001 days in that average went into work below ground: by 21 July 2026 RERA recorded enabling works, piling, and foundation works at One River Point as completed, with structure, internal works, external envelope, internal finishes, and MEP works all recorded as under way above them. A curve can only be read once a second dated reading joins the 21 July 2026 entry, so for an end user planning a move or an investor weighing exit timing against the Q2 2027 handover Ellington Properties anticipates, the practical step is to confirm the current construction timetable with the developer in writing and read each new register entry as it is published.

One River Point Build Stages, Mapped to the Inspections
Each stage below is pinned to what the DLD register and the 21 July 2026 RERA report actually show for One River Point: an opening window of start and registration, ground works recorded as finished, the tower structure under way at 35.43%, envelope and services packages started alongside it, and a Q2 2027 handover still ahead.
Start and DLD Registration
The register dates construction start to 24 October 2023 and registration of project 2929 to 25 January 2024, both shown as recorded, before any reading was published.
Enabling, Piling, and Foundations
RERA's 21 July 2026 report records enabling works, piling, and foundation works as completed beneath the 3B+G+5P+37F+R+1UR tower.
Tower Structure
Structure works were progressing when the register read 35.43% on 21 July 2026; the previous reading of 28.79% carries no date on the register.
Envelope, Internal Finishes, and MEP
The same inspection found the external envelope, internal works, internal finishes, and MEP packages under way, each at its own stage, beside the structure.
Completion and Handover
Ellington Properties anticipates handover in Q2 2027, and the register lists a registered completion date of 09 June 2027; no reading beyond 35.43% is on this record yet.
What each construction stage involves in general is covered once in the guides on the Dubai Construction Updates hub, so this page stays focused on One River Point's own record.

Between 35.43% and Handover: What One River Point Buyers Should Do Now
At 35.43% on 21 July 2026, One River Point had moved past its ground works into the stretch where the 70/30 plan ties money to the register: that reading had triggered the 30% construction instalment, while the 40%, 50%, and 60% instalments had not yet fallen due. Each of those instalments is set off by a register reading crossing its threshold rather than by a calendar date, so the three checks below belong before the next reading is published, not after it.
First, make sure every payment still ahead goes only to the Emirates NBD escrow account registered for project 2929; the One River Point escrow account page explains how construction-linked instalments are released.
Second, confirm the current construction timetable with the developer in writing and read it against the record in the One River Point July 2026 construction record, which pairs the 35.43% reading with that day's RERA notes.
Third, if residency is part of the plan, check eligibility while the tower is still under construction through the One River Point residency guide, since off-plan registration and title deed timing shape the application path.

FAQs
One River Point Construction Updates Frequently Asked Questions
One River Point, DLD project 2929, is an active project under construction, recorded at 35.43% on the Dubai Land Department register on 21 July 2026, when the RERA progress status for the main contract read as progressing. That reading was 98 days old when this record was compiled on 27 October 2026, so a newer figure may already be on the register; the dated entries are in the One River Point inspection timeline above.
The register's inspection report dated 21 July 2026 shows 35.43% construction progress, 6.64 points above the previous reading of 28.79%. The register gives no date for that earlier inspection, so the rise cannot be turned into a monthly rate. The notes of the 21 July 2026 inspection are set out in the One River Point July 2026 construction update.
The DLD register lists a registered completion date of 09 June 2027 for project 2929, which falls inside Q2 2027, the quarter Ellington Properties gives as the anticipated handover. The two are separate records, one from project registration and one from the developer, and either can be revised, so buyers should confirm the current construction timetable with the developer in writing.
One River Point holds 295 residences, from studios to a 4 bedroom penthouse, in a single tower that the 21 July 2026 RERA report describes as 3B+G+5P+37F+R+1UR with a concrete structure and block construction. The developer's documents describe the residential part as 37 floors above a ground floor and five podium levels.
Averaged over the whole build, from the 24 October 2023 construction start to the 35.43% reading of 21 July 2026, One River Point advanced about 1.06 percentage points per month across 1,001 days. That figure is arithmetic, not a forecast: it spreads the completed enabling, piling, and foundation works over the full period and does not measure the current rate on site. The pace analysis above sets out the calculation.
The DLD register dates the start of construction to 24 October 2023 and the registration of project 2929 to 25 January 2024, 93 days later; both dates are shown here as recorded. The first dated reading on this record is 35.43% on 21 July 2026, about 33 months after the start.
