Laurel Central Park: Apartments and Penthouses in City Walk
Laurel Central Park is a residential building within Central Park at City Walk, developed by Meraas Holding. City Walk is a built-out urban neighborhood in Al Wasl. The project sits inside it, within the Central Park precinct, rather than beside a development area still taking shape.
What the City Walk Address Means
City Walk occupies Al Wasl, between Jumeirah and Business Bay. Sheikh Zayed Road is close. Business Bay is roughly 10 minutes by car, Downtown Dubai at a similar distance. The Dubai International Airport is about 20 to 25 minutes away. The Central Park sits at the center of this address.
For an owner-occupier, the park is a direct and immediate amenity. For an investor, City Walk is a known and established Dubai address with the area's infrastructure already in place.
A Range That Runs From AED 2M to AED 27M
Prices run from AED 2,016,714 to AED 27,163,000. That spread reflects two distinct product types in the same building: standard apartments at the lower end and penthouses at the top. The range is not variation within a single product type. It is the distance between an apartment entry price and a penthouse price.
At around AED 2M, a buyer gets the City Walk address, Central Park positioning, and the full building amenity set in apartment format. At AED 27M, the buyer is acquiring a penthouse in the same building. These are different propositions, and the gap makes more sense once the product types are separated.
Apartments and Penthouses
The building offers apartments and penthouses. Apartments suit buyers who want a connected urban address in a fully managed building with Central Park access. Penthouses suit buyers for whom scale, top-floor positioning, and a flagship City Walk property are the primary goal.
What the Amenity Set Signals
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Wellness | Health Club, Gymnasium, Shared Gym, Shared Spa |
| Outdoor and Leisure | Beach Access, Shared Pool, Balcony, Children's Play Area |
| Dining and Services | Restaurants, Maid Service, Maids Room |
| Comfort | Central A/C, View of Landmark, Security, Pets Allowed |
Beach access is the standout item. City Walk is an inland neighborhood, and this amenity is uncommon for the location. The wellness offering is layered: health club, gymnasium, and spa each listed separately suggest distinct purpose-built spaces rather than a single shared room. View of Landmark fits the building's position directly inside the Central Park precinct.
Maid service and maids rooms indicate a full-service residential format. On-site restaurants reinforce that. The amenity set targets residents who want hotel-grade convenience in a City Walk address. The pet-friendly listing extends the resident profile to include single professionals alongside families.
Where the Project Stands Now
Construction began in November 2022. The scheduled completion was December 2025, a date that has now passed. The project is at or past its handover window.
For buyers entering now, the construction phase is complete or nearly so. This is a ready or near-ready asset, not a long-horizon off-plan commitment.
Getting In at 20% Down
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 30% |
| On handover | 50% |
The entry is 20% down. Construction-period payments cover another 30%. The largest single tranche, 50%, falls due at handover. The structure concentrates its largest payment at the final stage rather than spreading payments evenly.
With the December 2025 completion date now behind us, that 50% handover payment has been called or is currently due.
