Ellington Launches Eaton Square, Its First A-Grade Office Tower in MBR City

Dubai, UAE – August 5, 2025 – Ellington Properties, one of Dubai’s most prominent design-led developers, has announced the launch of Eaton Square, its first foray into the commercial real estate sector. Located in Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City), the new A-grade office tower is positioned to become the area’s premier business address and a model for next-generation workspaces in the UAE.

The project marks a significant milestone for Ellington, known primarily for its high-end residential developments. With Eaton Square, the company extends its focus on thoughtful design and human-centric environments into the growing market for premium commercial properties.

A Strategic Move Amid Surging Demand

The launch comes at a time when Dubai continues to strengthen its role as a global business hub through national initiatives such as the Dubai Economic Agenda D33. The Dubai Chamber of Commerce recorded a record 70,500 new company memberships in 2024, a 4.6% year-on-year increase. Key sectors driving this growth include construction (33%), real estate and business services (8.4%), transportation and communications (8.3%), and financial services (8.3%).

Eaton Square is designed to meet the rising demand for future-ready office spaces that prioritize well-being, functionality, and flexibility—core requirements for today’s knowledge-driven industries.

Design, Exclusivity, and Smart Innovation

Scheduled for completion in Q4 2027, Eaton Square will feature 11 custom-designed office floors and premium retail outlets on the lower levels. Each floor is intended for single-tenant occupancy, providing enhanced privacy, brand presence, and operational control. Tenants will benefit from sweeping views of the Dubai skyline and the surrounding central lagoon, creating a distinguished and uplifting working environment.

“With Eaton Square, we are expanding the boundaries of what commercial real estate can offer in Dubai. This launch reflects our continued commitment to design excellence, now reimagined for the workplace. As the city evolves into a global hub for businesses, there is a clear need for workspaces that foster wellbeing, creativity, and connection. Eaton Square delivers on that promise, offering an environment that inspires performance and cultivates balance,” said Joseph Thomas, Co-Founder of Ellington Properties.

Amenities Designed for Work-Life Balance

True to Ellington’s human-centric philosophy, Eaton Square incorporates a broad mix of amenities to enhance work-life quality. These include a fitness centre, yoga studio, sauna, and executive changing rooms, alongside an executive lounge and co-working areas fitted with the latest presentation technology.

Working parents will benefit from an on-site daycare centre, while professionals seeking quiet or focused time can make use of phone booths and dedicated quiet zones. Outdoor elements include a leisure promenade with dining and retail options, a kids’ play area, and recreational games such as table tennis and chess.

Sustainable Mobility and Advanced Tech Integration

The development supports sustainable transport with electric vehicle charging stations, bicycle storage, and ample parking bays. Eaton Square will also be equipped with smart building features such as destination control elevators, facial recognition (FR) access, NFC and QR code-enabled entry systems, and AI-powered video analytics for occupancy tracking and behavioral insights.

A Future-Focused Commercial Landmark

Strategically situated in MBR City, Eaton Square is more than just a new commercial tower—it represents a new way of thinking about workspace design in Dubai. By blending architectural excellence, smart technology, and wellness-oriented amenities, Ellington aims to deliver a future-facing environment that supports both business growth and personal wellbeing.

With construction underway and a launch targeted for 2027, Eaton Square is poised to become a defining presence in the evolving commercial landscape of Mohammed Bin Rashid City.
