The Dubai Land Department has recently undertaken a significant initiative, altering the nomenclature of several well-known districts within the city. New names will be aimed towards recognizing the emirate’s heritage and identity.
Prominent neighborhoods, including Sheikh Zayed Road, Jebel Ali Village, and Emirates Hills First, have undergone a transformation, embracing fresh identities. The Dubai Land Department’s official website features a comprehensive list unveiling the updated designations of 28 neighborhoods across the urban landscape.
As per the latest updates on the Land Department’s website, the region previously known as Sheikh Zayed Road is now officially recognized as Burj Khalifa. Furthermore, Emirates Hills First, Second, and Third have been renamed as Al Thanyah Fifth, Third, and Fourth, respectively. Among the other notable changes, Motor City has been rebranded as Al Hebiah First, Jebel Ali Village has transitioned into Jebel Ali First, and Sport City is now officially referred to as Al Hebiah Fourth.
