Reem Island to get Dh250M public park
abu dhabi — Aldar Properties on Wednesday announced plans for its new 1,000,000 square feet public park on Reem Island. The Reem Central Park, costing Dh250 million, will be completed in 2018.
The park features a mosque, F&B outlets, retail centre, a skate park, play areas and water features. In supporting Emirati entrepreneurship, Aldar will allocate a dedicated space within the park’s retail offer to local businesses.
“We are proud to launch Reem Central Park and create a space that will benefit so many of Abu Dhabi’s residents and visitors upon its completion next year. This park fits well within our strategy to create dynamic, amenity-driven lifestyle destinations across our land bank in Abu Dhabi. The park will provide yet another leisure and entertainment option for everyone in the area,” Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, chief executive officer, Aldar Properties, said.
Built on tiered levels, Reem Central Park will boast a variety of attractions and amenities that lead down to a natural waterfront, including a 4km promenade, providing visitors with edutainment opportunities about the area’s natural reserves and plant life.
Earlier this week, Aldar announced the launch of The Bridges, a Dh1.3 billion midmarket development on Reem Island. The Bridges comprises six towers and 1,272 units, with

Aldar’s master-planned community on Reem Island is already home to some of the company’s developments including Sun & Sky Tower, and the Gate & Arc Towers. It is also the location of Aldar’s first mid-market project, Meera, which was successfully launched in June 2015 and is over 90 per cent sold, with construction ongoing.
Reem Island offers significant benefits to residents through its close proximity to the central business district on Al Maryah Island and its connectivity to the centre of Abu Dhabi and other prime destinations within the emirate.
