15 Dec 2025 CW Team

The development comprises four elegantly designed towers that reflect Union Properties’ vision for modern, connected and sustainable communities that foster a strong sense of belonging. The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by Chairman Mohamed Fardan Ali Al Fardan, Vice Chairman Abdul Wahab Al Halabi, CEO and Board Member Eng. Amer Khansaheb, along with other board members, underscoring the company’s collective commitment to creating harmonious residential spaces that enhance everyday living.

Spanning 356,931 square feet, Mirdad will feature 1,087 residential units, including a limited number of luxury lofts and well-appointed apartments designed to maximise natural light, panoramic views and smart spatial planning. Residents will have access to more than 26 curated indoor and outdoor amenities, supporting a holistic lifestyle offering. The project will incorporate smart building technologies, landscaped green spaces and EV charging infrastructure, with 647 of the 1,294 parking spaces equipped with chargers, alongside energy-efficient façades and sustainable construction materials.

Enabling works for the project include the excavation of 446,000 cubic metres of soil and the construction of a 716-metre-long shoring boundary, setting the foundation for the next phase of development. Strategically located in the heart of Motor City, Mirdad is surrounded by established retail and leisure destinations and two upcoming public parks, while also benefiting from connectivity between Al Maktoum International Airport and Dubai International Airport. This positioning enhances its appeal for both residents and investors seeking urban convenience, lifestyle value and long-term returns.

Scheduled for completion in Q4 2028, Mirdad is guided by principles of architectural distinction and sustainable design, reinforcing Union Properties’ long-term commitment to supporting Dubai’s vision of future-ready, liveable communities.
