The Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) has officially signaled the next phase of its ambitious urban expansion with the launch of One Uptown Place and Two Uptown Place. These twin commercial towers will inject over 560,000 square feet of luxury office space into the market, bringing the district's total commercial footprint to over 1 million square feet.
The development comes as Dubai experiences a surge in demand from global finance and technology firms seeking high-end, integrated business ecosystems. This mirrors the rapid delivery seen in other sectors, such as early residential completions in the city.
Redefining the Corporate Workspace
Designed by Brewer Smith Brewer Group, the towers—rising 21 and 15 storeys respectively—are engineered to cater to the modern occupier’s needs.
- Flexible Layouts: Office units ranging from 2,100 to 17,600 square feet.
- Inter-floor Connectivity: Select floors will feature multi-level layouts connected by private internal staircases.
- High-Tech Infrastructure: Floor-to-ceiling glazing for natural light and destination-controlled elevators.
- Seamless Transit: A dedicated shuttle service will connect tenants directly to the Dubai Metro.
A Mixed-Use Ecosystem
DMCC is positioning Uptown Dubai as more than a business district; it is a lifestyle destination. The new towers will incorporate 82,000 square feet of retail space, along with in-building dining, lifestyle outlets, and a swimming pool. Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman and CEO of DMCC, emphasized that the move is a direct response to evolving corporate requirements for connectivity and flexibility.
Sustainability and Strategic Growth
As part of DMCC’s commitment to environmental stewardship, both towers are targeting LEED Gold certification. The buildings will integrate energy- and water-efficient systems alongside enhanced indoor environmental standards to meet the ESG goals of global tenants. The project is scheduled for completion and handover by Q1 2028, with leasing expected to open in H2 2026.
This latest development underscores the sustained confidence in Dubai’s commercial real estate outlook, as Uptown Dubai evolves into a premier global hub for trade, finance, and emerging technologies.
