The Yards by BEYOND: New Landmark in City of Arabia
- Jun 10, 2026
BEYOND Developments has unveiled The Yards, a new master-planned destination in Dubai's City of Arabia, marking a significant milestone in the developer's expansion across the UAE. Alongside the launch of the masterplan, the company also introduced Arancia, the first residential cluster within the Mediterranean-inspired community.
As BEYOND's first inland development, The Yards in City of Arabia reflects the developer's confidence in one of Dubai's fastest-growing urban districts and its long-term vision for creating design-led communities in high-potential locations across the Emirates.
Spanning approximately 2.3 million square feet of gross floor area, The Yards will comprise 1,560 residential units, offering a collection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. Inspired by Mediterranean living, the masterplan is centred around a one-kilometre green spine, with nearly 70% of the total development dedicated to landscaped open spaces, creating a nature-focused environment that encourages wellness, connectivity, and community interaction.
Strategically positioned within the City of Arabia, The Yards benefits from exceptional connectivity to major employment centres, entertainment destinations, and transport infrastructure throughout Dubai. The development is located within a growing corridor that continues to attract investment and infrastructure upgrades, reinforcing its appeal for both residents and investors.
Commenting on the launch, Adil Taqi, CEO of BEYOND Developments, said:
"The Yards is a Dh4 billion commitment to a district where scale, connectivity, and a genuine scarcity of quality supply are converging to create one of the most compelling long-term investment cases in Dubai."
He added:
"It is also a reflection of how BEYOND is growing deliberately across the Emirates and across typologies, bringing our philosophy of nature-led, design-driven living to the locations we believe will define the UAE's urban future. At BEYOND, we anticipate demand rather than follow it, and every masterplan we bring to market is an expression of that conviction."
Highlighting Dubai's enduring appeal as a global investment destination, Taqi further stated:
"The fundamentals driving this market are structural, not cyclical: sustained population growth, world-class infrastructure, sound governance, and a leadership vision that continuously sets the global benchmark. BEYOND is not simply a developer operating in this market; we are a reflection of the confidence this market commands, and every masterplan we bring forward is our commitment to its continued ascent."
The launch comes at a time when Dubai continues to experience strong population growth, significant infrastructure investment, and increasing international demand from residents, businesses, and investors. The Yards is expected to benefit from these trends through its strategic location and future-ready connectivity.
The development enjoys proximity to planned metro infrastructure as part of Dubai's expanding public transport network and offers direct access to both of the emirate's major airports. Dubai International Airport can be reached in approximately 25 minutes, while Al Maktoum International Airport is accessible within 38 minutes, further enhancing the community's long-term value proposition.
As the first residential expression of the masterplan, Arancia Yards introduces 272 residences distributed across three low-rise buildings. The collection features one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes designed around a landscape-first concept that prioritises wellbeing, open space, and human-scale living.
At the centre of Arancia is a 4,200-square-metre landscaped sunken garden, creating a unique social and experiential focal point for residents. The cluster also incorporates more than 3,000 square metres of rooftop terraces and over 2,000 square metres of retail and food-and-beverage space, seamlessly integrating lifestyle and convenience within the community.
Discussing the vision behind the project, Ramzi Rahal, Chief Development Officer of BEYOND Developments, said:
"Arancia is the first expression of The Yards vision, introducing a low-rise, nature-led community designed around well-being, connectivity, and everyday quality of life. It establishes the character of the wider masterplan. It reflects our belief that the most enduring communities are those that place people and nature at the centre of the living experience."
The launch of The Yards further expands BEYOND's growing portfolio, which already includes developments across Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Islands, Dubai Maritime City, and Ras Al Khaimah. By introducing a large-scale inland destination focused on nature, design, and connectivity, the developer continues to strengthen its presence in some of the UAE's most promising growth markets.
With its Mediterranean-inspired masterplan, expansive green spaces, strategic location, and long-term investment potential, The Yards is set to become a defining new residential destination within Dubai's evolving urban landscape.
