Dubai Motor City


Dubai Motor City is a property development in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, by Union Properties. The development is based on a motor-sport theme and includes residential units, business towers, motor-sports facilities, retail and a theme park.
The key components of Dubai Motor City are:
Apart from Dubai Autodrome which was opened in 2004 the remaining developments within MotorCity were due to be completed in 2009. However, in February 2009 Union Properties announced that the F1-X theme park would be put on hold and delayed due to the global financial crisis and problems with obtaining credit. Handover of UpTown MotorCity to owners started in phases during March 2009 and all residential units are now fully handed over.
Dubai Motor City now hosts a range of retail outlets ranging from a large supermarket to a various restaurants and other outlets.
Since the Global Financial Crisis decimated Dubai's economy in late 2008 work on some aspects of the project has completely ground to a halt, leaving the Marriott Hotel and The F1-X Theme Park half built.
