Opera act

Dubai-based Emaar Properties is set to launch an exclusive collection of residences located adjacent to the stately Dubai Opera, the iconic centerpiece of The Opera District in Downtown Dubai, UAE.

The ‘Act One | Act Two’ residences are situated in exceptionally designed 52- and 46-storey towers that take their façade design cues from the rhythmic sway of The Dubai Fountain. The homes open to spectacular views of Burj Khalifa and the bustling Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard, Emaar Properties says.

Residents will have the opportunity to be close to Dubai’s multi-format venue for performing arts, concerts, theatre, operas, art exhibitions, film events and more. They are also within walking distance of The Dubai Mall, the world’s largest retail and entertainment destination.

Scheduled to open soon, Dubai Opera will be a magnet for arts and cultural enthusiasts from across the world, who will be drawn to its amazing repertoire of year-round events.

Act One | Act Two has been launched internationally with a dedicated sales event held in London last month at Harrods.

Aptly named to capture the dynamism of living right where all the action is, Act One | Act Two features 718 residential units including one, two, and three bedrooms, and a limited collection of penthouses located on the highest two levels. A dedicated promenade opens to the majestic view of the Dubai Opera with high-end retail and exclusive cafes, and rich amenities including a health club, spa, infinity pools and swimming pools are a part of the Act One | Act Two lifestyle.

Ahmad Al Matrooshi, managing director of Emaar Properties, says: “Act One | Act Two are truly a defining destination of choice for all culturally inclined as they now have the unique value proposition of living right next door to Dubai Opera. A premium development that celebrates the vibrant cultural lifestyle of the city, the residences bring a one-of-a-kind lifestyle choice to the city.”

Act One | Act Two’s façade will feature a horizontal and vertical stepping, each creating stunning views of Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Fountain. A podium connection to Burj Khalifa is the highlight with majestic vistas of the tower emerging as they pass beneath the podium on foot. A variety of swirling roof terraces and balconies not only lend an architectural flourish to the project but also assure unmatched views, more so from the L-shaped terraces of the penthouses, Emaar says.

In addition to the spacious, well-lit design of the residences, Act One | Act Two have world-class fixtures and a wide range of services including 24-hour concierge and security.
