His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai, recently visited the Sheikh Rashid Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Housing Project for Citizens in the Wadi Al Amardi area.
The project, which is currently under construction at a cost of AED 1.4 billion, includes 672 villas designed to provide modern, comfortable housing for Emirati families.
The development, named in memory of the late Sheikh Rashid bin Mohammed, also features endowment markets, a mosque, a public park, and various service facilities. The project is being personally overseen by H.H. Sheikha Hind bint Maktoum bin Juma Al Maktoum, in line with her initiative to enhance the well-being of Emirati families through the Sheikha Hind bint Maktoum Family Programme.
H.H. Sheikh Mohammed emphasized that the project exemplifies Dubai’s commitment to raising infrastructure standards and creating integrated, sustainable communities.
“Our goal is to provide citizens with a supportive environment that promotes family stability and quality of life,”
he said.
The development will be delivered in four phases, with the first 124 homes expected to be completed by 2026. The entire project will be completed by 2032. Designed with green spaces, recreational areas, and modern facilities, the project aligns with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan and the Dubai Social Agenda 33, which aims to make Dubai the best city for living.
H.H. Sheikh Mohammed praised the project as a model for future residential developments, reinforcing Dubai’s dedication to enhancing social stability and fostering innovation in urban living.
