Dubai Maritime City
Dubai Maritime City (DMC) is a business zone which is dedicated to the maritime, commerce and trade industry. The area is located between Port Rashid and Dubai Drydocks World on a man-made peninsula and consists of the Commercial District that comprises offices, residences and retail, as well as the Industrial Precinct, dedicated to marine services such as warehouses, workshops, ship lifts and repair docks.
The master developer of the neighbourhood is DP World, which is working with architectural consultants from Khatib & Alami to regenerate the area. The Dubai Maritime City district is expected to be completed by the end of 2021. It should also be noted that the uniqueness of the site is that upon completion of all construction works the development should receive a certificate of eco-building, which would allow the area to become the first maritime center that combines state-of-the-art maritime technology with an eco-friendly initiative.
The project was launched in 2004 but was suspended from 2009 to 2011 because of the financial crisis. In 2012, construction resumed again, and a year later DAMAC Properties announced that it planned to redevelop DMC and build high-rise buildings and luxury towers that would house premium hotels and serviced apartments. As a result, in 2015, developer Omniyat began construction on the 44-storey Anwa Tower, which costs more than AED 600M (USD 163.35M) to construct and design.
According to the master plan, DMC is being developed to create a cluster of like-minded companies within six large and diverse sectors, including maritime services, maritime management, product marketing, maritime research and education, leisure, ship design and manufacturing. In addition, the area should be an excellent venue for international trade seminars, exhibitions and conferences, as well as symposia on maritime topics. There are 4 key areas in the project:

Industrial zone will be a ship repair complex that will be able to simultaneously service 80 vessels and house more at 42 berths. There will be the largest ship lift in the entire Arabian Gulf region, which will allow the zone to provide repair and maintenance services of vessels to the highest level. Among other things, there will be 19 ship repair sites, 11 large and 31 small dry berths, a railway transport system, a 5,643 ft wet berth, retail units, restaurants and exhibition halls. After the completion of all construction work, the dry dock in Jadaf is scheduled to be moved to the DMC.

Dubai Maritime City covers 227 acres and boasts a convenient location that allows you to reach the emirate’s most important sites in the shortest possible time by car, as the area is easily connected to the mainland via Sheikh Rashid Road. Therefore, it is a good place for those who want to live close to the Arabian Gulf and be able to reach the central areas of Dubai, such as Downtown Dubai, Business Bay, DIFC or Dubai International Airport. But it’s worth noting that you should consider buying or renting a car when staying or working in DMC, as the nearest bus stops can be found on Jumeirah Beach Road and Al Mina Street, which is more than a half an hour walk.
The Dubai Maritime City area has a couple of nearby amenities and facilities that residents and visitors can take advantage of, including the Jm Masjid mosque, the food and meat supplier Royal Foodstuff L.L.C. and the emergency department of Mubarak Marine LLC. On the mainland, you can visit places like the RollDXB roller drome, Just Padel padel tennis court and the Theatre by the QE2 event and concert pavilion. In addition, one of the most fascinating sights of the emirate is located in the immediate vicinity; the Dubai Frame, which was opened back in 2018 and has a height of 492 ft. and offers a stunning bird’s-eye view of both the Old and New Dubai. The Dubai Frame frame is made of more than 160K sq.ft of gold cladding, and the design includes the Expo 2020 ring design. It is the largest frame in the world. The spectacle resembles a time machine as it is divided into several sections where you can learn about Dubai’s history and heritage. You can also go up to the Sky deck to see a 360° modern view of Dubai, and visit the tunnel where you can get in touch with Dubai as it is seen in the future. Another famous place is the Dubai Museum which is located in Al Fahidi Fort. Both attractions are about a 15-minute drive from DMC.
