About Boulevard Crescent Tower 1
Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 is a 39-storey residential tower in Downtown Dubai, developed by Emaar Properties and completed in 2018. Bayut's own building guide, fetched live for this guide, confirms the tower's height and developer directly. It is part of a two-tower project called Boulevard Crescent, with Tower 1 at 39 storeys and Tower 2 at 21 storeys, a height split corroborated separately by broker Tanami Properties' description of '39 & 21 storey Towers'. This guide covers Tower 1.
The two towers are connected at the podium level, where residents share a fitness club and other amenities, and are further linked by landscaped parks and walkways at ground level, per Bayut. Tanami Properties describes the development's design as '1930's Inspired Art Deco Architecture'.
The task brief compiling sources for this guide cites a combined total of 307 units across both towers, sourced to Bayut. A live re-fetch of Bayut's own building-guide page on 2026-07-26 did not surface this specific total-unit figure in its own text, so it is stated here as drawn from the compiled brief rather than independently re-confirmed live in this pass.
Ownership at Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 is freehold, per Bayut. The building is not to be confused with other 'Boulevard'-branded Downtown Dubai towers such as 29 Boulevard or Boulevard Point, which are separate, standalone developments.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 sits in the heart of Downtown Dubai, with direct access to the Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard and its public promenade, per Tanami Properties. Bayut names Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa and Dubai Opera among the major landmarks nearby, and Tanami separately puts The Dubai Mall around a 15-minute walk away.
For the wider area, Royale Stays' own Downtown Dubai Airbnb management guide covers short-term rental performance and licensing across the district. Other Boulevard-area buildings covered separately include Boulevard Point, 29 Boulevard and Burj Vista, all within the same Downtown Dubai core.
Per Bayut, Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 is around 6 minutes from both Business Bay Metro Station and Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall Metro Station, and around 9 minutes from Emirates Towers Metro Station.
Unit Types
Bayut lists four unit categories at Boulevard Crescent Tower 1: 1-bedroom apartments from 909 to 1,009 sq ft, 2-bedroom apartments from 1,413 to 1,545 sq ft, 3-bedroom apartments from 1,925 to 2,285 sq ft, and 4-bedroom penthouses on the top-most floors, each covering roughly 6,975 to 9,815-plus sq ft and taking up half or an entire floor.
Tanami Properties' own marketing summary lists a narrower 1, 2 and 3-bedroom range from 906 to 2,225 sq ft and does not separately mention 4-bedroom penthouses — a difference from Bayut's fuller breakdown stated here honestly rather than resolved. No floor-plan diagrams are included: floor plans are typically the developer's proprietary material and are not reproduced here.
Amenities
Per Bayut, Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 offers a swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, steam room and gym, plus a barbecue area and a dedicated kids' play area. Squash and tennis courts, a community hall and a mini theatre are also listed among the building's shared facilities, many of which are shared with Tower 2 at the podium level.
Basement parking is available with reserved spaces for residents, and the building has multiple high-speed elevators, security gates, central air-conditioning and a decorated lobby, per Bayut. Pets are allowed in the building.
Transportation & Access
Per Bayut, Business Bay Metro Station and Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall Metro Station are both around 6 minutes from Boulevard Crescent Tower 1, and Emirates Towers Metro Station is around 9 minutes away. The nearest bus stops named by Bayut are 8 Boulevard Walk Tower, Lake Central Tower and The Binary Tower, all under a 5-minute drive.
Tanami Properties separately notes the development sits minutes from Sheikh Zayed Road and Financial Centre Road, and around 15 minutes' walk from The Dubai Mall, with direct access to the Boulevard and its public promenade.
Rental & Price Trends
Tanami Properties lists a starting marketing price of AED 2,032,888 for units at Boulevard Crescent, presented as a broker asking price rather than a confirmed current resale or rental figure. Neither live source checked for this guide provides dated Dubai Land Department resale-transaction records specific to this building, so no such transaction data is stated here.
Royale Stays has not independently confirmed a specific long-term monthly rental figure or service charge for Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 in this pass, so neither is stated as fact. Owners weighing a specific unit's earning potential can run their own numbers through Royale Stays' Dubai property ROI calculator.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Boulevard Crescent already shows a direct short-term rental signal under its own building name: the task brief compiling sources for this guide notes an Airbnb listing titled 'Charming 2Br in Boulevard Crescent | Downtown Dubai', using the building's name directly in its title. This listing was not independently re-fetched live for this pass, since Airbnb's own listing pages return minimal content to a plain fetch, consistent with the same limitation noted elsewhere in this series.
Royale Stays has not independently confirmed a specific short-term rental income figure for Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 itself, so none is stated here. As a standard Emaar freehold tower with no hotel or serviced-apartment branding, an individual owner can generally apply for a DTCM holiday home permit in the normal way. Royale Stays' guide to the Dubai holiday home permit sets out the current fees and renewal process.
Owners considering Airbnb at Boulevard Crescent Tower 1 can lean on Royale Stays' full furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications service rather than handling listings directly, backed by the same operational approach behind Royale Stays' guide to choosing an Airbnb management company in Dubai. Owners ready to move forward can submit their property for a management review to get a clearer read on its Airbnb potential.
