Jebel Ali Village (JAV) is a neighbourhood in Jebel Ali, southern Dubai, United Arab Emirates.[1] Now it is a redevelopment by Nakheel Properties of the existing Jebel Ali Village.[2] Churches Complex of Jebel Ali is located here.

History

The original Jebel Ali Village was constructed in 1977 to provide accommodation to construction contractors' staff.

Sir William Halcrow and Partners and acted as a prototype for further semi-autonomous residential areas in Dubai such as Emirates Hills and The Gardens.[4][5]

Construction for the redevelopment of Jebel Ali village had begun by 2008 and was originally expected to be completed by 2013. The existing villas were to be demolished to give space for new ones. Jebel Ali Village upon completion was planned to include commercial, community, and retail facilities, and the expansion of the existing central park to 12 hectares.

Nakheel announced in 2013 that the company intended to renovate the existing villas.[10]

In 2021, it was announced that the previously isolated Jebel Ali Village was to be transformed to make way for luxury villas.[11] The existing tenants were given a year to move,[12] with eviction notices served on them.[13] There are plans for redevelopment with large villas.[14][15]
