RAW District 2 by Imtiaz — A Second Address on Sheikh Zayed Road

RAW District 2 stands a short walk from the original Raw District tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, sharing its 80,000 sq ft Flame Tree Park and Downtown Jebel Ali address. The development pairs fully furnished residential apartments with modular offices, a managed co-working ecosystem and ground-floor retail. Architecture is composed of offset rectilinear volumes in raw concrete and bronze glass, with deeply recessed balconies and cantilevered upper floors that read differently from every approach on the highway.

The Design Lab, Studio, Forum, Stage and Shuffle as a Connected Creative Floor

RAW District 2 dedicates an entire floor to production spaces built to function as one system rather than a checklist. The Design Lab covers print and prototyping, the Studio houses podcast, media and photography rooms, the Forum is a stepped amphitheatre for talks and screenings, the Stage is a bookable event space for 50 to 70 guests, and the Shuffle is a games room for table tennis, pool and chess. Each space feeds the next.

A 2023 Ferrari F8 Tributo and a Suspended Aircraft as Permanent Lobby Features

A 2023 Ferrari F8 Tributo in Giallo Modena is installed as a permanent feature in the residential lobby, alongside a vintage aircraft suspended overhead as an art installation. Both function as fixed design elements rather than decoration, setting the arrival sequence apart from a standard mixed-use lobby. The pairing signals the project’s design register to residents, tenants and visitors from the first step inside.

Fully Furnished Residences in Raw Concrete, Timber and Distressed Leather

Every residential unit at RAW District 2 is delivered fully furnished, with open kitchens, integrated appliances, smart storage and layered lighting installed before handover. Interiors carry the same raw material language as the building’s public spaces: exposed concrete, fractured stone, timber, distressed leather and meshed metal surfaces. Acoustic detailing keeps daily living quiet. Furnished delivery removes the fit-out gap between handover and tenancy for buyers planning to rent.

80,000 sq ft Flame Tree Park Shared with the Original Raw District Tower

RAW District 2 shares an 80,000 sq ft Flame Tree Park with the first Raw District tower, positioned between the two buildings and the adjacent metro station. The park functions as an extended amenity rather than a landscaped buffer, connecting both addresses into a single pedestrian ecosystem. Reaching the metro from either tower is a walk through the park rather than a drive.

RAW District 2 Location — Downtown Jebel Ali, Dubai

Downtown Jebel Ali sits on Sheikh Zayed Road between Dubai Marina and Expo City, adjacent to Jebel Ali Port and its free trade zone. Expo City, operational since 2022, is the district's nearest major urban development, and Palm Jebel Ali's resort and residential district is under construction nearby. The corridor carries direct metro and highway access while residential supply remains limited relative to its transport connectivity.

RAW District 2 — One Ecosystem Across Two Buildings

A Shared Park and a Single Creative Community on Sheikh Zayed Road

RAW District 2 is built to function as one half of a two-building ecosystem rather than a standalone tower. Residents, office tenants and retail operators share the Flame Tree Park, the Distrikt Table dining concept and the creative floor’s production spaces with occupants of the original Raw District. Imtiaz has stated its intention to extend the Raw District concept to London, Miami and Madrid, positioning Downtown Jebel Ali as the brand’s founding address.

Property Types at RAW District 2 by Imtiaz

RAW District 2 offers three-bedroom apartments from 1,400 sq ft and two-bedroom apartments from 1,054 sq ft for buyers seeking larger layouts. Both configurations are delivered fully furnished, with open kitchens, integrated appliances and the raw concrete, timber and distressed leather palette used throughout the building. One-bedroom apartments from 620 sq ft follow the same specification in a smaller layout.

Studio apartments from 380 sq ft are compact, fully furnished units with open-plan kitchen and living areas. Office units from 700 sq ft occupy the modular commercial floors built to flex as tenants grow, part of the same managed co-working ecosystem as the creative floor. Retail units from 1,000 sq ft sit at ground level, fronting Sheikh Zayed Road and the Flame Tree Park entrance.

Early Entry on a Growing Sheikh Zayed Road Corridor

Downtown Jebel Ali sits between Dubai Marina and Expo City on Sheikh Zayed Road, a corridor shaped by three active infrastructure projects: the Palm Jebel Ali resort and residential build-out, the operational Expo City district and the Al Maktoum International Airport expansion. Pricing along this stretch remains early-stage relative to comparable Dubai addresses with equivalent metro access. Entry ahead of these infrastructure completions has historically preceded capital growth in similar Dubai corridors.

Furnished Delivery and Mixed-Use Rental Demand

All residential units at RAW District 2 are delivered fully furnished, removing the cost and delay of fitting out a unit before it can be listed. Mixed-use buildings on Sheikh Zayed Road with metro access, active retail and co-working floors have recorded gross rental yields in the 6–8% range in comparable Dubai districts. The office and retail component adds daytime footfall that supports occupancy for residential tenants seeking a live-work address.

UAE Golden Visa Eligibility

The UAE Golden Visa requires a minimum real estate investment of AED 2,000,000. Retail units at RAW District 2, starting from AED 2,900,000, qualify at entry level, and larger two- and three-bedroom apartments priced above the threshold also qualify. The Golden Visa provides 10-year renewable residency with no sponsor required, covers spouse and dependants, and carries no minimum annual stay requirement.

Infrastructure Advantages of Downtown Jebel Ali

Transport and Road Connectivity

The Jebel Ali metro station sits directly across the Flame Tree Park from RAW District 2, reachable on foot rather than by car. Sheikh Zayed Road runs alongside the development, connecting the site to Dubai Marina in 15 minutes and Expo City in 10 minutes, with Palm Jebel Ali also 10 minutes and Palm Jumeirah 20 minutes by road. Al Maktoum International Airport is 25 minutes by road, Dubai International Airport is 30 minutes and Abu Dhabi is reachable in 50 minutes via the E11.

Lifestyle and Leisure Infrastructure

Expo City Dubai, operational since 2022, is 10 minutes from the site and includes museums, hotels, restaurants, parks and event venues functioning as a permanent lifestyle district. Dubai Marina and JBR Beach are 15 minutes away, offering established waterfront retail and dining. Palm Jebel Ali's resort and villa development is under construction 10 minutes south, with hotel, beach club and marina infrastructure expected to expand the area's lifestyle offer over the coming years.

Social and Urban Infrastructure

Jebel Ali is one of Dubai's most established employment zones, home to the world's ninth-largest port and a major free trade zone with a large working population. Schools and healthcare facilities in the Al Furjan and Jumeirah Village areas to the north are within 10 to 15 minutes. The Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan designates the wider Jebel Ali corridor as a priority zone for urban expansion, supporting long-term residential density across the district.
