| What exists today | Dubai Investments Park has been building since 1995 across roughly 2,300 hectares in two zones, DIP 1 and DIP 2, combining commercial, industrial and residential land use. Last verified 11 September 2026 | Five Dubai Metro Red Line stations serve the corridor: Danube, open since 12 December 2012, and Jebel Ali, The Gardens, Discovery Gardens and Al Furjan, all opened on 1 January 2021.

| The OAC18 view | Genuinely established and genuinely mixed-use. The industry is not a detail, it is the district. | A metro corridor with buildings arriving one plot at a time, and no centre to any of it yet. |
