City Walk Crestlane is a waterfront residential development by Meraas, part of Dubai Holding Real Estate, built across five phases of mid-rise towers in the City Walk district of Al Wasl, Dubai. The project launched in February 2025 with Phases 2 and 3, delivering 394 residences, followed by Phases 4 and 5 announced in December 2025, adding 360 more units. The full masterplan covers 1-bedroom apartments starting from AED 2.70 million, 2-bedroom units from AED 3.2 million, 3-bedroom from AED 6 million, 4-bedroom apartments and duplexes from AED 15 million, and 5-bedroom penthouses at the top of the range. Every building is oriented towards water, with cascading streams, lagoons, and reflective pools forming the backbone of the community design. Handover for Phases 2 and 3 is scheduled for Q4 2028, with Phases 4 and 5 targeted for 2030. City Walk recorded an average resale price of AED 2,705 per sq ft in Q1 2025 across 120 transactions totalling AED 447 million, confirming the district as one of Dubai's most actively traded residential corridors.
Meraas City Walk Crestlane is the first project in the City Walk masterplan to be built around water as the primary organising element. Every tower faces the water. Cascading streams run between buildings, pools and lagoons connect the outdoor spaces, and water features create visual continuity from one end of the community to the other. The architecture takes a human-centric approach, keeping building heights mid-rise to maintain a walkable scale that integrates naturally with the existing City Walk streetscape rather than sitting above it.
Units range from 787 sq ft one-bedroom apartments to 4,986 sq ft four-bedroom duplexes, with five-bedroom sky villa penthouses also available in the top configuration. All apartments are delivered with floor-to-ceiling windows, open-plan kitchen and living layouts, master bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, smart home integration, and large balconies or terraces with views of the water or the Dubai skyline. The interior palette uses light materials and clean contemporary finishes. Duplexes feature double-height living spaces with private terraces that extend the indoor footprint outdoors.
The payment structure is 75/25: 20% on booking, 55% across the construction phase in staged installments, and 25% on handover. There is no post-handover component. City Walk properties carry average annual rental yields of 6 to 7% based on Q1 2025 district data, with annual rent for a one-bedroom unit starting from AED 140,000. Price growth projections for City Walk run at 15 to 20% based on the same period. The average resale price in the district hit AED 2,705 per sq ft in Q1 2025, up from AED 1,700 per sq ft in 2020, a 59% increase over five years against a market that has broadly risen 75% since 2021.
Meraas is a member of Dubai Holding Real Estate, the government-linked development group responsible for Bluewaters Island, La Mer, City Walk, Jumeirah Bay Island, and Madinat Jumeirah Living.

For Crestlane specifically, Meraas awarded a construction contract worth approximately AED 441 million across the five phases, with construction actively underway as of 2025. DLD-recorded transactions at AED 3,451 to AED 3,794 per sq ft are already appearing in the project's pre-handover resale market.
Meraas City Walk Crestlane draws 3 clear buyer profiles. End-users who want a permanent city-centre address within walking distance of the Coca-Cola Arena, Green Planet, City Walk Mall, and Dubai's main dining and retail corridor. Long-term investors targeting the 6 to 7% annual rental yield from corporate and professional tenants who consistently prioritise City Walk for its central position between Downtown and Jumeirah Beach. And portfolio buyers at the upper end who want duplexes or penthouses in a Meraas-developed freehold address that qualifies for UAE Golden Visa from a AED 2 million entry point.
