Aldar Properties has unveiled The Row Saadiyat, a boutique lifestyle and residential enclave conceptualized by world-renowned architecture firm BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group). Situated within Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Cultural District, this project aims to redefine urban living with its design-led approach and cultural integration.

Modern Living in a Cultural Setting

Sales for the development begin on November 1, featuring the first phase with 315 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments distributed across three buildings. In total, The Row Saadiyat comprises seven mid-rise structures, each rising nine stories above two basement parking levels, reflecting a perfect blend of functionality and elegance.

Prime Views and Iconic Surroundings

Positioned among Abu Dhabi’s most celebrated architectural landmarks, the project gives residents panoramic views of the Zayed National Museum.
