Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) has begun the development of DIFC Square.
This bold project, consisting of three interconnected buildings, seeks to address the increasing demand for top-tier office spaces and retail units in the core of the city’s financial district.
Centrally located within the financial district, DIFC Square covers an extensive one million square feet, situated on a prime 113,500 square feet plot.
The development features a contemporary design with buildings ranging from 8 to 13 floors, including a basement and three podiums, reaching heights between 58 and 81 metres.

The new development will provide 600,000 square feet of cutting-edge office space, complemented by 17,200 square feet allocated to retail, featuring a selection of curated shops and fine dining venues.
Its prime location ensures easy access to Downtown Dubai, Dubai International Airport, Sheikh Zayed Road, and other major business and leisure destinations, offering convenience for tenants and visitors alike.
Essa Kazim, governor of DIFC, remarked, “DIFC Square emphasises our dedication to addressing the evolving needs of leading businesses across the MEASA region and beyond,” he stated, underscoring the development’s role in bolstering the financial centre’s high-end real estate portfolio.
Driven by strong tenant demand, spurred by rapid growth in the wealth management and insurance sectors, the project has already attracted significant interest.
Construction is advancing quickly, with groundwork well underway to ensure timely completion by Q1 2026.
This development aligns perfectly with the financial centre’s ambitious 2030 Strategy, aimed at strengthening its status as a global financial and innovation hub.
Other forthcoming developments at the financial centre include the 1.1bn Immersive Tower in May.
DIFC Living, the centre’s first residential project, sold out completely within 48 hours of its launch in 2023.
