It will feature residential units, shops, retail outlets and hospitality facilities. No further details were disclosed. Saeed Al Qatami, CEO of Deyaar, said the development will help the developer meet increasing demand for residential and commercial units as well as hospitality facilities. Billed as a ‘city centred around the happiness’ of its people, the massive 145 sqkm Dubai South development is located five minutes from the Expo 2020 site, close to the Al Maktoum International Airport, Jebel Ali and Dubai Parks and Resorts. Projected to have a population of approximately one million people when ready, the development is also expected to create 500,000 jobs. Launched as a Dubai government project in 2006, Dubai South falls under the Dubai Aviation City Corporation. The development has seen the launch of several new projects in the last year, including a huge golf course community called Emaar South. To be developed by Emaar and Dubai South, the project will feature more than 15,000 residences across six districts anchored by an 18-hole championship golf course and clubhouse, community parks, retail precincts and three and four star hotels.
