Dubai community guide
Motor City
Green, walkable and honest value — our home ground
Overview
Motor City is one of Dubai's quiet success stories: a low-to-mid-rise community with real gardens between the buildings, generous layouts from an era before floor plans shrank, and prices that still make sense.
Awan Properties is based here — Detroit House, in the heart of the community — and we know every building in Uptown and the Green Community fringe street by street.
The Uptown district's named houses (Widcombe, Norton, Shakespeare) are the pick for owner-occupiers; apartments over the retail strip suit tenants who want everything downstairs.

Lifestyle
Tree-lined loops for the evening walk, the Autodrome on race weekends, First Avenue Mall for everything else. Motor City is unhurried in a way little of Dubai manages.
