New & Off-Plan Projects in Central Park
Central Park continues to expand with new off-plan releases from master developer Meraas. Recent and upcoming launches include Northline Phase 1 and Phase 2, both handed over in the third quarter of 2027, and Erin, scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2026. Earlier phases such as Viridian, Celadon, Myrtle and Crestlane introduced one to four-bedroom apartments and penthouses overlooking the park, with construction-linked payment plans typical of new launches in Central Park. Buyers benefit from staged instalments through the build period, with the balance due on handover, and each new phase has tended to launch at a premium to the one before it, reflecting rising demand across City Walk.

Central Park Real Estate: Prices, Payment Plans & Property Types
Prices & Payment Plans in Central Park
Central Park property prices sit at the upper end of the City Walk average, reflecting park frontage and the development's newer stock. Price per sq ft here typically runs 10-15% above the wider City Walk median, itself among the highest in central Dubai. Payment plans on new launches generally follow a 20% down payment, staged construction-linked instalments of up to 50% and a post-handover balance of 20-30%, plus the standard 4% DLD registration fee. Resale units, by comparison, are transacted on a straightforward full-payment or mortgage basis, giving buyers a choice between off-plan flexibility and ready-property certainty.
New Launches in Central Park 2026
The 2026 launch calendar in Central Park is led by Erin, due for handover in the second quarter of the year, alongside the ongoing rollout of Northline's two phases. Each new release has introduced larger layouts and additional amenities compared with the original Central Park towers, and early buyers in prior phases such as Viridian and Myrtle have already seen resale premiums build ahead of handover.
Apartments, Duplexes & Penthouses in Central Park
Central Park's residential mix runs from one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom penthouses and duplexes, with unit sizes typically ranging from around 670 sq ft for a one-bedroom to well over 2,000 sq ft for larger penthouse layouts. Interiors favour light-toned, contemporary finishes with floor-to-ceiling glazing onto the park, and most towers include built-in wardrobes, covered parking and shared access to pools, gyms and landscaped gardens. Two-bedroom apartments are the most actively traded configuration, priced slightly below the wider Dubai average for the category despite the premium location.
About Central Park
Central Park is a residential district within City Walk, the mixed-use masterplan developed by Meraas, now part of Dubai Holding. Positioned at the junction of Al Wasl Road and Al Safa Street in Jumeirah, it comprises around 12 residential towers, including Laurel, Erin, Northline and Central Park Plaza, arranged around a car-free, landscaped park. City Walk itself extends across more than 10 million sq ft, combining these towers with the retail boulevard and dining district a short walk away.
Life in Central Park runs at an outdoor, community-driven pace. Mornings often start with a jog through the pedestrianised park, while evenings draw residents to the C2 Licensed District's courtyard restaurants or City Walk's European-inspired plazas. The towers favour contemporary architecture and generous balconies, and this active, design-led character is what sets Central Park apart from more conventional Dubai communities.
Central Park's price per sq ft sits somewhat above the Downtown Dubai average and below Palm Jumeirah, reflecting its status as a premium, centrally located community rather than a waterfront trophy address. Connectivity is a core strength, with direct Sheikh Zayed Road access and a metro station within walking distance in cooler months. The community appeals to young professionals, couples and international investors, with analysts expecting continued price growth through 2026 as remaining inventory tightens.

Residents step straight out into City Walk’s car-free plazas, home to Roxy Cinemas, the indoor rainforest experience at The Green Planet and the Brass Monkey bowling and arcade venue. The 17,000-capacity Coca-Cola Arena hosts concerts and major events just minutes from the towers, while landscaped running tracks and sports courts within Central Park itself support an active, outdoor daily routine.

Families have several nearby options, including GEMS Wellington Primary School and Jumeirah International Nursery for younger children, both within a short drive of the towers. Canadian University Dubai, offering undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, sits inside City Walk itself, giving the community a rare on-site higher-education presence alongside its residential and retail offering.

Where to Dine Out
The C2 Licensed District brings 11 restaurants across three landscaped courtyards, spanning cuisines from Italian and Greek to Azerbaijani and New Orleans-style fusion.
