About Viridian at Central Park
Viridian at Central Park is a freehold residential building by Meraas Holding, developed through its Citywalk Residential 1 subsidiary, in the Central Park cluster of City Walk, Al Wasl, Dubai. It is an eight-storey building with one basement parking level. Construction began in February 2022, and current Dubai Land Department-linked project records show the building was completed in January 2026, after earlier developer estimates pointed to handover dates ranging from October 2024 to early 2025.
Viridian offers a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, part of Meraas' wider Central Park at City Walk masterplan. The developer describes the building as a residential-park concept, with apartments featuring draping plants along the balcony edges and views over the shared Central Park green space. The architectural consultant was Arif & Bintoak and the main building contractor was Eastern International. Dubai Land Department records list a developer-submitted pre-construction project value of roughly AED 68,000,000 (around USD 18.5 million).
Developer, storey count and timeline cross-confirmed via Propsearch (propsearch.ae/dubai/viridian-at-central-park), Property Finder's new-projects page (propertyfinder.ae/en/new-projects/meraas-holding/viridian) and Tanami Properties (tanamiproperties.com/Projects/Viridian-Central-Park). Storey count (8) is stated explicitly only by Propsearch; Property Finder's own floor-plan data lists unit levels up to Level 2-7, consistent with an 8-storey building. Architect, contractor and project-value figures sourced from Propsearch only, disclosed as a single-source detail. Handover estimates varied by source and by date of publication (October 2024 per Property Finder, Q1 2025 per TopLuxuryProperty, January 2025 per Propsearch's own earlier estimate) before the project's actual January 2026 completion, a normal off-plan-to-actual gap rather than a factual conflict.

Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Income Potential
City Walk is not currently one of Royale Stays' five core managed areas (Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay), so this guide does not claim a Royale Stays management track record at Viridian at Central Park specifically. Meraas Holding is a private master developer rather than a restricted hotel brand, so there is no confirmed policy barrier to running a licensed holiday home in the building.
Every short-term rental in Dubai requires a DTCM holiday home permit. Royale Stays can arrange the permit application and manage the day-to-day operation, including for owners based overseas, for a fee starting from 15%, covering furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications. See Royale Stays' Dubai holiday home permit guide for the current permit process.
