About Motor City
Developed by Union Properties, Motor City Dubai was inspired by the UAE’s love of speed. But behind the name lies one of the city’s greenest, most liveable neighbourhoods. The area includes six main sub-communities – Uptown Motor City, Green Community Motor City, Business Park, Avenue District, Dubai Autodrome and OIA Residence.
Each sub-community offers a range of properties surrounded by landscaped paths, playgrounds and parkland. The entire Motor City location encourages an active, family friendly lifestyle with walkable streets, peaceful surroundings and a strong sense of community.
What to consider before moving to Motor City
Motor City appeals to those who prefer calm, residential living over the city centre’s buzz. The Motor City location is particularly handy for professionals working in areas like Dubai Studio City or Al Barsha. While there's no direct metro access, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road offers a fast route to most business and lifestyle hubs. Car ownership is essential, but for those who drive, it’s a smooth and stress-free experience.
