Dubai conglomerate Meraas has announced that it is developing the Central Park at City West, an expansive and wellness-oriented "leafy community" in the heart of Dubai.

The residential complex, which will be located a stone's throw from the Dubai Arena, will surround a 40,000 sq m green space – dubbed "Central Park" – and comprise 187 condos housed inside 12 terraced mid-rise buildings.

The property’s on-site leisure and wellbeing amenities and facilities will include sports courts, pools, fitness and spa areas, as well as a skatepark and a playground.

According to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Media Office, the site's apartment units will be shaped to facilitate "nature-inspired living", boasting a "sleek contemporary design, with light colours and carefully selected high-end materials that seamlessly blend with the natural environment, including plants and flowers suspended in hanging baskets from balcony edges".

Details for the project's completion date have not yet been announced.
