SSH has been appointed Main Works Supervision Consultant for the Sky Residences development in Expo City Dubai – a landmark urban destination focused on innovation, sustainability, and modern living.

The legacy of Expo 2020 Dubai, strategically positioned at the centre of Dubai’s future, is a signature mixed-use city that offers modern residences, a world-class free zone, culture spaces, restaurants, retail outlets and more. Expo City’s ambitious master plan will adopt a phased development approach that will eventually see the city accommodate over 35,000 residents and 40,000 professionals.

Sky Residences stands as a signature residential community within Expo City. Soaring up to 15 storeys high, the development spans over 200,000 sqm of built-up area, offering panoramic views of the iconic Al Wasl Plaza. The development comprises several/three mid- to high-rise towers, built around a network of multi-level basements, podiums, landscaped terraces, and tower blocks – supported by robust infrastructure and seamless links to surrounding districts and transport systems.

Designed for contemporary lifestyles, Sky Residences presents a balanced mix of 1- to 4-bedroom apartments, paired with a host of lifestyle and community-centred amenities. Residents will enjoy access to state-of-the-art gymnasiums, swimming pools, vibrant retail spaces, multipurpose community halls, children’s play areas, and generous basement parking across multiple levels.

Aligned with Expo City’s vision for smart city innovation and sustainability, the development integrates passive cooling strategies and operational efficiency – all while fostering a strong sense of wellbeing among its residents. The podium deck is richly landscaped to enhance residents’ experience, contributing to the city’s long-term goal to create integrated communities that feature green spaces and prioritise wellbeing and happiness.
