Al Furjan

A Nakheel master community in the Jebel Ali corridor, announced in 2007, that pairs gated villa and townhouse clusters with a growing ring of mid-rise apartment blocks. Its own station on the Route 2020 branch and two retail pavilions make it a well-connected family suburb for this side of Dubai.
