Lake Terrace, Residential tower in Jumeirah Lake Towers, United Arab Emirates.
Lake Terrace is a 40-story residential tower within Jumeirah Lake Towers that combines apartments with retail spaces in a single structure. The building is part of a larger complex featuring artificial lakes and connects via pedestrian pathways to nearby Metro stations.
The building was completed in 2009 and marked a key phase in the development of Jumeirah Lake Towers, a large-scale residential project in Dubai. Its construction followed the broader plan to create mixed-use residential complexes with lakes and open spaces.
The building reflects the lifestyle of residents who value proximity to shops and dining options within their complex. The lower floors see regular foot traffic throughout the day, while upper residential levels remain quieter.
The building is accessible through multiple entrances and pedestrian walkways connect it to public transportation, making it straightforward to reach. The lower floors with shops see the most activity during daytime, so early morning or late afternoon offer a less crowded experience.
The building's windows were specially designed to reduce solar heat while preserving clear views of the complex's artificial lakes. This clever glazing solution helps residents stay cool in the hot desert environment.
