DMCC Unveils Two New Towers to Boost Uptown Dubai

DMCC Unveils Two New Towers to Boost Uptown Dubai

Post by : Badri Ariffin

In a significant announcement, DMCC has revealed the introduction of two state-of-the-art commercial towers, aptly named One Uptown Place and Two Uptown Place, located in the dynamic Uptown Dubai district. This development underscores DMCC's commitment to fortifying the area as a preeminent global business hub.

The initiative will expand the region with over 560,000 square feet of premium Grade A office space. Consequently, total commercial spaces in Uptown Dubai will surpass 1 million square feet. The leasing phase is anticipated to commence in the latter half of this year, with project completion targeted for the first quarter of 2028.

Designed to accommodate a diverse range of businesses, the two towers will rise to 21 and 15 storeys, respectively. Office areas will be available from 2,100 to 17,600 square feet, and selected floors will feature multi-level office configurations linked by private staircases, catering to larger enterprises.

Additionally, the project will integrate approximately 82,000 square feet of retail options, further establishing Uptown Dubai as a vibrant mixed-use destination encompassing office space, shopping, and lifestyle amenities in a singular locale.

This ambitious expansion is part of DMCC's ongoing efforts to cultivate new business ecosystems within finance and capital markets. Initiatives like FinX and the Wealth Hub are designed to draw in financial institutions, fintech innovators, and digital asset enterprises—all contributing to the rising demand for high-quality office spaces in well-placed areas.

Ahmed Bin Sulayem emphasizes that modern businesses are increasingly prioritizing flexible workspaces that offer robust connectivity and access to global markets. He noted that these new towers are a testament to the surging demand from sectors such as trade, finance, and technology, and will facilitate the evolution of contemporary enterprises.

Architecturally crafted by Brewer Smith Brewer Group, the towers will focus on enhancing user experience and operational effectiveness. Amenities will include a variety of dining options, retail outlets, and even a swimming pool. Moreover, the development is set to offer more than 1,600 parking spots complete with valet service, along with a shuttle link to the Dubai Metro.

Additional highlights consist of expansive floor-to-ceiling glass windows for breathtaking views, 13 high-speed elevators, and streamlined inter-floor connectivity designed for large corporate needs.

Aiming for LEED Gold certification, both buildings will feature eco-friendly systems, water conservation solutions, and superior indoor air quality.

DMCC is now inviting expressions of interest from prospective businesses ahead of the official leasing process. With these new towers, Uptown Dubai is poised to solidify its position as a premier hub for global trade, finance, and cutting-edge technologies.
