The register files Meydan One and most of the apartment stock under Al Merkadh, the same area as Mohammed Bin Rashid City, so the medians on this page are the district’s rather than the racecourse’s alone; the racecourse villas register under Nad Al Sheba. The case is location at Dubailand prices: an apartment here is closer to Downtown than anything at the same price on the E311. The risk is the same as everywhere the price is right, a long list of small developers on the canal blocks, so check delivery record and the inspected percentage before the render. , Equity Edge analyst note
Where Meydan sits
Meydan is the district around Meydan Racecourse, home of the Dubai World Cup, sitting between Nad Al Sheba, Mohammed Bin Rashid City and the Dubai Water Canal, ten to fifteen minutes from Downtown by Al Khail Road. It is two markets in one: the racecourse side of large villas and low-rise plots, and Meydan One on the canal, where dense mid-market apartment blocks and the Meydan One mall site sit beside the Sobha Hartland towers across the water.
