MAG City Residences is a residential enclave within MAG City in the Meydan area of Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City). The masterplan evolved from an initial concept of 28 mid-rise apartment blocks to a smaller cluster of built blocks, with much of the originally planned land reallocated to Ketura, a neighbourhood with luxury villas and larger apartment buildings.
MAG City Residences sits within the broader MAG City district in Meydan, part of Mohammed Bin Rashid City. The development began as a mid-rise apartment scheme, with an original plan for 28 mid-rise buildings. During planning and construction, the scheme was scaled back. Several originally numbered blocks were not constructed, and the land was repurposed as Ketura, which now contains villas and larger apartment buildings. The neighbourhood therefore combines different housing types.
Early plans included building numbers MAG 700, 710, 720, 730, 740, 750, 760 and 770, which were not part of the realised development.
MAG City Residences is connected to Dubai’s wider road network and is within driving range of major city destinations. Typical drive times from the neighbourhood include:
The nearest metro connection is on the Red Line, at approximately 5,893 metres away. Residents generally rely on private cars, taxis or ride-hailing services for regular commutes and connections to public transport.
MAG City Residences went through multiple design iterations. The change from the originally proposed 28 mid-rise blocks to a smaller number of built blocks, alongside the establishment of Ketura on repurposed land, reflects the evolution of the masterplan during delivery.
