Dubai South — Dubai's 145 sq.km Future Mega-District
Expo Living sits within Dubai South — a government-backed 145 sq.km master-planned city projected to generate 450,000 jobs and house 1 million residents once complete. The district is anchored by Al Maktoum International Airport (set to become the world's largest with 260M passenger capacity), Expo City Dubai, the Dubai Logistics Corridor, and a dedicated free zone. Route 2020 Metro (already operational since 2021) connects directly to the Red Line and Dubai Marina, while Sheikh Zayed Road provides rapid access to the wider city. Dubai South is forecast to drive over 35% of Dubai's total GDP by 2030.
Thoughtfully Planned Community
Expo Living is a smart, sustainable residential community within Expo City Dubai — built on 80% of the retained infrastructure from Expo 2020, including the Route 2020 Metro Station, cultural venues, green corridors, and innovation hubs. The masterplan spans a self-sufficient 15-minute neighbourhood designed for 35,000 residents and 40,000 professionals, integrating education, healthcare, retail, parks, and mobility into a walkable, car-free environment.
Expo City Dubai itself is home to the Al Wasl Dome, Alif Mobility Pavilion, Dubai Exhibition Centre, and the Expo Pavilion District — a world-class cultural and innovation destination remaining live post-Expo. The community is adjacent to the upcoming Dubai Expo Mall — a 697,000 sq.ft Emaar-built shopping and leisure destination opening in late 2025 — and an Aldar/Expo City joint venture developing 103,000 sq.ft of grade-A office space.
Terra Woods is one of several Emaar phases within Expo Living (alongside Terra Heights and Terra Gardens), placing residents at the heart of a fully activated ecosystem backed by government infrastructure investment and Al Maktoum International Airport’s ongoing expansion.
