Designated as Abu Dhabi's new Central Business District in Plan Abu Dhabi 2030, Al Maryah Island is designed to meet long-term commercial and community needs. Located at the nexus of the existing city and new growth areas such as Reem and Saadiyat, the 114 hectare project is envisioned as the focus of a fully integrated commercial and financial center that is also a vibrant mixed-use community. Al Maryah Island will provide a compelling and dynamic environment in a compact urban context.
Using the most recent Master Plan and Architectural Design Controls, all new buildings on Al Maryah Island were strategically tested through massing, envelope and material methodologies. In all over 80 buildings were visualized and catalogued.
