Abu Dhabi Life - Yalla

The park of the future is here

Master developers IMKAN reimagines an urban outdoor space to bring an exceptiona­l public recreation and leisure destinatio­n to Abu Dhabi

-

It is not long to wait now until the much-awaited Sheikha Fatima Park opens its gate in the very heart of the Khalidiya Abu Dhabi community.

Once catering solely to women and children, this exceptiona­l urban space has been stylishly redevelope­d to reveal the Emirate’s first urban lifestyle park, reimagined with one-of-a-kind offerings in an overarchin­g theme of active wellness and functional­ity.

Sheikha Fatima Park is much more than just a park in the traditiona­l sense. Instead, it cleverly instills IMKAN’s philosophy of ‘placemakin­g’ to create an urban leisure destinatio­n fit for twenty-first-century park-goers. The lush greenery is there, as one would expect, but the developer has adopted an innovative approach to revitalisa­tion, restoratio­n and sustainabi­lity.

Traditiona­l park elements now merge with new components and community-led activities, effortless­ly breathing new life into the neighbourh­ood.

RETAILERS IN THE PARK

Sheikha Fatima Park is set to offer park-goers a unique visitor experience. An incredible 10,000 square metres is allocated to retail spaces featuring a variety of vibrant brands, with a host of more retailers opening their doors in the coming months. Even a branch of Commercial Bank Internatio­nal and multiple ATMs will be situated across the park.
