Dubai Studio City
Who Dubai Studio City suits: and who it doesn't
A quieter, cheaper neighbour to Motor City with the same road links, which is the whole appeal. Tenant demand comes from the studios and the Motor City overflow, and yields hold up because entry prices are low. The district still lacks a retail heart of its own, so daily life leans on Motor City next door. , Equity Edge analyst note
