Social, environmental and economic issues have all been painstakingly woven into the master plan and today, Diamond Developers’ flagship project is a globally recognized example of successful, sustainable real estate development. Its first phase covers five million square feet and comprises more than 500 villas, grouped into five residential clusters and connected to an urban farm and park that runs along the entire length of the development, forming the community’s ‘Green Spine’, within which there are 11 biodome greenhouses.
Awarded ‘Happiest Community’ for the third year running, the community also comprehensively responds to the environmental aspirations of the Paris Agreement (2050), the United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030), the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy (2050), and the UAE Vision (2021).
The development has proven to be so successful on the many goals upon which it staked its reputation – low emissions, a socially rounded community, sustainable living, no service fees, all topped with a bottom line that most developers would envy – that it has become a flagship for similar projects around the world.
