The Old Town is a mixture of low-rise three-storey apartment buildings and mid-rise towers with penthouses, and offers a counterpoint to the sharply modern style of most of Burj Dubai, the heart of emerging Downtown district.
Each of the Old Town communities offer the ultimate in convenience and service retail facilities, with unique architectural interior design features. One has the ambience of an open traditional souq, with tight twisted lanes and shaded walkways, leading to a main double central court. The other has open public spaces, malls, courts, domes and arches, and a wide selection of restaurants and nightlife.
Each community has its own amenities building with fitness areas for aerobics, squash, and swimming; outdoor green areas for children's play and barbequing; a mini theatre, juice bar, lounge area and sun decks; and boutique and luxury hotels – all adding to the character of life of The Old Town.
This lifestyle choice will offer a variety of one, two, three and four bedroom suites, as well as penthouse suites, in three distinct building styles.
Amongst the distinctive low-rise buildings, some homes offer a generous private rooftop terrace and garden, with unique views across the neighbourhood.
Substantial apartments are clustered around a courtyard – or minsera. Their perimeter access walkways, as in Old Dubai residences, give the feel of a very private space. The landscaping, and sound of water, reflect this exclusivity and give it a very personal ambience.
This 'city within a city' combines residential, commercial, hotel, entertainment, shopping and leisure outlets with open green spaces, water features, pedestrian boulevards, an old town and the world's largest shopping mall, Dubai Mall.
The Dubai Mall in Downtown Burj Dubai is one of the largest malls in the world, will be the premier lifestyle destination for shopping and entertainment. It is a shopper’s paradise featuring 1,200 retail outlets, two anchor department stores, a 220-store Gold Souk and more than 150 food and beverage outlets – all masterfully spread over an astonishing area totalling 12.1 million square feet.
