Trade Centre 1 and 2 sit on Sheikh Zayed Road: hotels, offices, apartments above the podium. Metro underneath. Satwa behind. This is the original ‘live on the line’ idea.

A strong first-year address for an office job. Buildings vary from worn to serviced. Check DEWA and whether the unit is a hotel apartment on a weekly rate.
