Meraas Launches Urban Waterfront Living at Dubai Design District (d3)

Dubai’s dynamic real-estate panorama is set to expand further as Meraas launches a landmark residential project in the city’s creative heart: The Edit at d3. The new development brings modern waterfront living to the thriving Dubai Design District, blending contemporary architecture, lifestyle amenities, and prime location.

Project Overview & Architecture

• The Edit at d3 consists of three sculptural towers rising along the canal-front promenade, offering residents direct access to waterfront views and the vibrant streets of d3.

• The development delivers a total of 557 residences, including 1- to 4-bedroom apartments and premium penthouses.

• Architectural design is modern and fluid: towers feature softened forms, flowing balconies, curved corners, and a design-led aesthetic that complements the creative spirit of Dubai Design District.
• To enhance urban living quality, the project integrates sky gardens, landscaped terraces, and communal green spaces — bringing nature, light, and openness into a high-density urban waterfront setting.

Lifestyle & Amenities

Residents of The Edit at d3 will enjoy a lifestyle tailored for creativity, comfort, and convenience. Key amenities include:

• Resort-style swimming pools

• Dedicated co-working zones and creative studios

• Family-friendly and kids’ zones

• Wellness and fitness facilities including yoga spaces and health club

• Gaming lounges and a private cinema

• Direct access to d3’s waterfront promenades — with cafés, art galleries, fashion ateliers, and a bustling design-oriented community just steps away

Strategic Location: At the Heart of Dubai’s Creative Hub

The Edit at d3 is not just a residential project — it’s part of the next growth phase of Dubai Design District, one of the city’s most dynamic creative and lifestyle hubs. The wider d3 expansion will add roughly 500,000 square feet of new creative, cultural, retail, and dining spaces, further elevating its value as an epicentre of design, culture, and modern urban living.

This makes The Edit at d3 especially attractive for buyers, investors, and renters seeking a community that blends design-centric urban living with waterfront tranquility — all within one of Dubai’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

What This Means for Dubai’s Real Estate Landscape

For real-estate professionals, investors, and end-users alike, The Edit at d3 signals:

• A push toward waterfront-style urban living even within high-density districts — tapping into demand for lifestyle-oriented, accessible residences rather than only luxury villas or high-rise apartments.

• Growing appeal of design-led, amenity-rich residential communities that align with global lifestyle trends: wellness, remote work, creative living, and social spaces.

• Increased value potential for surrounding properties and infrastructure in d3 and neighboring districts, as improved amenities, retail/dining options, and connectivity attract both residents and investors.

• Continued diversification of Dubai’s real-estate offering beyond traditional luxury or high-end segments — making the market more inclusive and varied.

For a real-estate agency or developer (like MasidProperties), such developments underscore the importance of diverse portfolios — offering properties in both high-end and lifestyle-oriented communities to cater to a broader range of clients.
