Emaar Properties launched Boulevard Central as two high-rise residential buildings connected by a shared podium. The development was completed in 2012 and forms part of the established residential fabric surrounding Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard. Emaar's original project documentation describes the development as comprising two high-rise apartment buildings with studios and one, two and three-bedroom apartments.
The current property market is divided between Boulevard Central Tower 1, Boulevard Central Tower 2 and the Boulevard Central Podium. Emaar Community Management identifies 422 apartments across the two-tower development, while property databases can show slightly different registered-unit counts depending on how the podium and commercial components are classified.
Property Types and Features
Boulevard Central offers studios and one, two and three-bedroom apartments, with a particularly active resale market for one and two-bedroom residences. Current listings demonstrate considerable variation in apartment sizes, with one-bedroom properties ranging from more compact layouts to unusually large residences exceeding 1,300 sq. ft. Two-bedroom apartments commonly range from around 1,160 to 1,400 sq. ft., while larger layouts can exceed this range.
Apartments are designed around practical open-plan living and dining areas, fitted kitchens, bedrooms with built-in storage and balconies in selected layouts. Larger residences can offer generous terraces, additional bathrooms, and upgraded interiors. Current resale listings include renovated and fully furnished apartments, giving buyers the choice between original units and properties that have already been modernised.
Views vary significantly by tower, floor, and orientation. Some apartments overlook Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard, while others offer views towards Burj Khalifa, Downtown Dubai or the surrounding cityscape. Recent listings include two-bedroom residences specifically marketed for full Burj Khalifa or Fountain views.
Location and Accessibility
Boulevard Central is positioned on Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard, between The Residences and 29 Boulevard. Its location puts residents within Downtown Dubai's pedestrian-oriented boulevard district, with Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Dubai Opera, and surrounding restaurants and cafés all close by.
The Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall Metro Station is accessible from the development, while Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road connect to Business Bay, DIFC, Dubai Marina, and other parts of Dubai. Dubai International Airport is also within a short drive.
