About the project
Time Place is a 35-storey residential building in Dubai Marina, completed in 2018.
The building holds 289 apartments in total.
The database has nothing for this project at the moment: lots come and go here, and it refreshes nightly.
Thirty-five storeys and 289 residences, handed over in 2018. Our own stock carries two three-bedrooms around three thousand square feet — from AED 3.3 million (~$900K) to AED 7.7 million (~$2.1M).
What it is
Time Place is a 35-storey, 289-residence tower in Dubai Marina, handed over in 2018. The developer isn't listed in the building record.
Our own stock carries two listings: three-bedrooms around 3,000 square feet, priced at AED 3.3 million and AED 7.7 million.
A 2.3x gap between two lots in the same building with the same bedroom count isn't a spread of layouts — it's a difference in floor, view and condition. A gap like that is always worth checking: one of the two prices is usually explained by something specific.
Eight apartments per floor
Two hundred and eighty-nine residences over thirty-five storeys works out to around eight per floor. That's mid-range density for the Marina: not an investment tower stacked with studios, but not an intimate building either.
Dubai Marina in our database — 266 lots, median AED 3.7 million (~$1.0M) at an average of AED 2,588 per square foot. Time Place's lower listing sits near the median, the upper one is roughly double.
The average three-bedroom here runs around three thousand square feet — noticeably above the district average. This building was built for living in, not for stacking studios to rent out.

A building with no developer on record
The propsearch building record lists neither a developer nor an architect for this tower. That's not unusual for buildings from the late 2000s and 2010s — a number of these projects changed hands during construction.
In practice, that means checking the developer's reputation is pointless — what needs checking is the building itself. The condition of the common areas, how the management company performs, the owners' association minutes, and the service charge rate.
Eight years in service is an age where all of that is already visible, but no capital works have happened yet.
propsearch building record: 35 storeys, 289 residences, handed over 2018; developer and architect not listed. Our own stock as of 28 August 2026: 2 lots (sizes, bedrooms, prices), and the median and price per square foot for Dubai Marina.
