District 2020: Dubai’s 15-minute city of the future – ArabianBusiness

Since its inception, every aspect of Expo 2020 Dubai has been thoughtfully considered to ensure that its legacy is carried on for generations to come, and its infrastructure is able to evolve to meet the future needs of businesses and individuals.

District 2020 – the future vision of Expo 2020 Dubai – is a sustainable and human-centric future city, designed as a people-first, purpose-driven community that will transition and repurpose the World Expo’s physical and virtual infrastructure, according to Sanjive Khosla, senior vice president at District 2020.

The development will retain more than 260,000 sqft of floor area of LEED Gold and Platinum structures from Expo and will be transitioned in phases into residential, commercial, and cultural neighbourhoods in District 2020.
