Life in International City Phase 2

A growing apartment community in eastern Dubai

International City Phase 2 combines a quieter residential setting with short drives to Dragon Mart, Dubai Safari Park, Academic City and the employment centres of eastern Dubai.

  1. The setting

    International City Phase 2 is the name widely used for the developing residential district in Al Warsan 4, east of the original International City. Its position near Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road and Manama Street gives drivers practical access to Dragon Mart, Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai International Academic City and the wider city.

  2. Everyday living

    The neighbourhood is apartment-led, with low- and mid-rise buildings offering studios and one to three-bedroom homes. New projects are adding larger terraces, contemporary finishes, swimming pools, gyms and family facilities, while supermarkets, casual dining and everyday services continue to expand.

  3. Buyer perspective

    Driving is currently the most practical transport option. The Dubai Metro Blue Line is under construction and is planned to serve International City 1 and 2 when it opens in September 2029, creating a meaningful future connectivity upgrade for the wider district.

  4. What to know

    Active construction and remaining plots mean the streetscape will continue to change. Buyers should compare the precise project location, parking, service charges, access roads and realistic distance from future stations rather than treating every Al Warsan address as identical.
