TL;DR
Art Tower XV is a completed, 20-storey residential tower that occupies one of Business Bay's most prized positions: a canal-front address on Marasi Drive, directly overlooking the Dubai Water Canal. Completed in June 2016 by Abdul Rahman Mohamed Taher — a UAE-based real estate developer — Art Tower XV was among the earlier residential completions on the Marasi Drive waterfront, giving its residents priority access to what has since become one of Dubai's most sought-after urban promenades.
The Dubai Water Canal, inaugurated in 2016, transformed Business Bay's geography by cutting a 3.2-kilometre waterway from Dubai Creek through to the Arabian Gulf — creating a 12-kilometre continuous waterway through the city and establishing Marasi Drive as Business Bay's premiere waterfront residential street. Art Tower XV's canal-facing position places it at the epicentre of this urban transformation — a building whose streetscape has only improved in character and value since its completion, as the surrounding promenade has been progressively landscaped, activated with restaurants and retail, and connected to Dubai's broader waterfront walking and cycling network.
Business Bay is Dubai's premier mixed-use commercial and residential district — positioned immediately south of Downtown Dubai and east of DIFC, connected to both by a dense network of arterial roads, and served by two Dubai Metro stations (Business Bay and Dubai Canal on the Red Line).
Key Distances (by car from Marasi Drive):
The Dubai Water Canal Promenade: The canal promenade fronting Art Tower XV is now a fully activated urban environment:
For residents of Art Tower XV, the canal promenade is immediately accessible at ground level — an urban waterfront experience available without a car journey, making the building's lifestyle proposition fundamentally different from standard Business Bay towers set back from the water.
Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road: Art Tower XV's Marasi Drive position provides quick access to both of Dubai's primary highway corridors — Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) for coastal and Abu Dhabi access, and Al Khail Road (E44) for the fastest route to JVC, Dubai Hills, Dubai Marina, and Dubai South.
Art Tower XV rises 20 storeys from Marasi Drive — a height calibrated to the canal-front context, where the mid-rise character of Marasi Drive's earlier developments preserves the canal's openness and provides most floors with meaningful water views rather than building-to-building sightlines.
Architectural Design: Designed by Alajmi Engineering Consultants, Art Tower XV employs a contemporary, glass-fronted high-rise aesthetic that maximises canal views and natural light penetration across all principal rooms. The building's orientation toward the canal ensures that canal-facing apartments receive morning light and evening waterfront ambiance — the characteristic glow of Dubai's illuminated canal reflected in the building's glazed facade.
Building Configuration:
Unit Types:
Interior Design: Art Tower XV delivers a quality interior specification consistent with the premium pricing and canal-front positioning of its Marasi Drive address:
Canal View Configurations: Canal-facing units in Art Tower XV are particularly sought-after — the direct view over the Dubai Water Canal, with the opposite-bank Marasi Business Bay commercial district as the backdrop and the canal's illuminated nighttime reflection below, is a genuinely distinctive residential visual experience that commands premium pricing in both sale and rental transactions.
City View Configurations: Non-canal-facing units provide views across Business Bay's dense tower skyline — with the Burj Khalifa visible from upper floors on clear days — a skyline view that is itself premium relative to what the majority of Dubai's residential market can offer.

Secondary Market Pricing: Art Tower XV's canal-front position commands premium secondary market pricing:
Rental Market: Business Bay's rental market is sustained by the enormous concentration of commercial activity in the district — DIFC, Downtown, and Business Bay itself collectively house hundreds of thousands of professionals whose residential preferences naturally include proximity to their workplaces. Canal-front buildings command meaningful premiums:
Canal-Front Premium: Dubai Water Canal properties command 15%–30% rental premiums over comparable non-canal Business Bay units — the waterfront lifestyle value translating directly into tenant willingness to pay above-market rents for canal views and promenade access.
Capital Appreciation: Business Bay has been one of Dubai's strongest-performing residential sub-markets since 2020. The Dubai Water Canal's progressive activation — more restaurants, better landscaping, increased event programming, improved connectivity — has specifically elevated Marasi Drive canal-front properties above the broader Business Bay average. Properties that purchased in 2019–2020 at post-correction prices have appreciated 30%–60% through 2025.
Completed Building Advantages:
UAE Golden Visa: All Art Tower XV units — beginning from the 1BR tier at AED 2M+ — qualify for the UAE 10-Year Golden Visa.
Freehold Title: Art Tower XV is a freehold building, providing full ownership rights to buyers of all nationalities.
Art Tower XV on Marasi Drive is Business Bay's established canal-front residential classic — a building where the location premium of Dubai Water Canal frontage, the proximity to Downtown and DIFC, and 9 years of proven operational performance combine to create one of Business Bay's most dependable and character-rich residential investment addresses.
