The mixed-use Jumeira Gardens development will be 'an integrated city within a city', to be built over 12 years, Meraas Development announced at Cityscape.
Jumeira Gardens will be built out over 12 years, across an area north of Sheikh Zayed Road between Diyafa Street and Safa Park.
There will be several major parks and a large canal will run through the heart of the development and will flow, at one end, into the Business Bay Canal and at the other end, out to the sea.
The development will also have a number of high rise towers, including 1 Dubai, set to be one of the tallest and largest buildings in the world.
This mega-structure will consist of three towers that are linked by bridges that contain suspended apartments within them. Each tower will be at least 600 metres tall, with mosaic-like glass and aluminium-mesh cladding.
