Design and amenities: where the office meets the five-star hotel
LMD describes the concept as the “hotelification” of office space. Instead of a standard workplace, the tower brings wellness, dining and entertainment under one roof, so businesses can work, host and unwind without leaving the building.
A striking New York-inspired landmark
The tower’s curved, ribbed glass façade, planted terraces and pointed crown will give it a standout silhouette on the Sheikh Zayed Road skyline. Inside, interiors by Bahrain-based International Design Associates blend Art Deco influences with Manhattan loft style and contemporary New York design. Arrival is through a triple-height lobby with artwork and a water feature.

Office collections for every business
Offices range from individual units for growing companies to half-floor and full-floor spaces for corporate headquarters. The top-tier Presidential collection occupies full floors between Levels 71 and 80, starting at about 11,541 sq ft with private terraces.
Location: the heart of Dubai’s business corridor
The tower sits on Sheikh Zayed Road, the city’s most iconic business artery, between Business Bay and Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall Metro stations. That puts tenants and owners within easy reach of:
- Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa, the city’s premier lifestyle and tourism district
- Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), the region’s leading financial hub
- Business Bay, home to thousands of companies and growing corporate demand
- Two Dubai Metro stations, offering direct rail links across the city
For businesses, an address like this is a statement. For investors, it is the kind of prime, metro-connected location that office occupiers in Dubai are actively competing for. Nearby, Ellington is also launching Grade A offices beside Business Bay Metro.
Why investors are watching the Rockefeller Tower
Christian A. Rockefeller told Arabian Business that Dubai was chosen for the brand’s first building because of its focus on investment, architectural ambition and long-term value. The numbers back that confidence.
