Bay Square Building 9 is one of the low-rise commercial and residential buildings in the Bay Square cluster in Business Bay, right along the Dubai Water Canal. It forms part of a larger mixed-use development by Dubai Properties, with retail on the ground floors and apartments above. That setup gives the area a walkable, urban feel that stands apart from the high-rise towers across the rest of Business Bay.
The wider Bay Square cluster includes interconnected buildings numbered 1 through 13, arranged around landscaped courtyards, shops, cafés, and restaurants at ground level. This building makes more sense for young professionals and working singles than for families. Most units are studios and one-bedroom apartments, so the lifestyle here centers on convenience and city access rather than playgrounds or green space.
Prices of properties for sale in Bay Square Building 9 range from AED 990K to AED 1.95M, with a median of AED 1.15M.

See all TransactionsBay Square Building 9 sits in the Bay Square precinct of Business Bay, one of Dubai's most central mixed-use districts. Sheikh Zayed Road runs along the western edge, and Al Khail Road borders the area to the south. That puts Downtown Dubai, DIFC, and Jumeirah within about a five- to ten-minute drive, depending on traffic.
Caribou Coffee is the closest option, just a one-minute walk from the entrance. Boba House and Nani Rolls & Noodles are both roughly a five-minute walk away, and Tam Puzatic sits at about the same walking distance. If you want somewhere quieter to sit down, Marasi Coffee House and The Library are each around a ten-minute walk along the canal side of Business Bay.
For bigger-name chains, you'll need to drive toward Downtown Dubai. CZN Burak, Shake Shack, and P.F. Chang's are reachable in about five to ten minutes by car, while Al Baik and Five Guys are under ten minutes away.
Bay Square Building 9 sits in Business Bay, which is more commercial than family-oriented, so schools inside the district are limited. Most families living here use campuses in Al Safa, Al Quoz, and Downtown Dubai instead.

Bay Square sits at the southern end of Business Bay. Al A'lam Street and Burj Khalifa Street run along the west side, while Al Asayel Street lines the east. Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard runs along the northern edge of the wider district and gives residents a direct route toward Downtown Dubai.
Bus access is one of the easier parts of living here. Bay Square 1 is within walking distance, and Bay Square 2 is about a one-minute walk beyond that. You'll also find stops at Marquise Square Tower, Damac Maison Prive, and South Ridge Tower 2, which connect the area to routes along the Business Bay canal and into Downtown Dubai. Further west, Lake Central Tower 2 and Lake Central Tower 1 serve routes heading toward Al Quoz.
Taxis and ride-hailing apps such as Careem and Uber are used constantly in this area, and pick-up points around the ground-floor retail podiums are easy to find. With so many hotels nearby, waiting long for a cab usually isn't an issue.
Bay Square links directly to several major roads. Al A'lam Street and Burj Khalifa Street carry north-south traffic on the western side, while Burj View Street and School Street handle internal access. Al Ohood Street and Al Yamamah Street run through the heart of Business Bay to the north.
By car, Dubai Mall and Downtown Dubai are roughly five minutes away. Jumeirah Beach takes about fifteen minutes, and Dubai International Airport is around twenty minutes depending on traffic. City Walk and DIFC are both under ten minutes away.
Heading south via Al Khail Road, you can reach Dubai Hills and Motor City in about fifteen to twenty minutes, while Sharjah's border is typically thirty to forty minutes away via Sheikh Zayed Road.
I’ve spent a fair amount of time around Business Bay and it’s one of those areas that looks exactly how you’d expect Dubai to look - sleek, central, and always a bit on the go. Location-wise, it’s hard to fault. You’re minutes from everything includes the likes of Downtown, DIFC, Sheikh Zayed Road, and almost next door to The Dubai Mall, which is obviously one of the biggest highlights of the city. Getting around is pretty seamless overall, and public transport is a big plus here: metros, buses, and cabs are all easily available, so you’re not fully reliant on a car. What’s interesting about Business Bay is that while it’s very work-driven, it’s also quite residential, so you get a mix of both. There are loads of cafés, gyms, and restaurants, and the canal side is genuinely a highlight, especially in the cooler months when it’s great for a walk or even cycling. That said, it can feel a little… transactional. A lot of people are there for work, so it doesn’t always have that strong “community” vibe. Traffic can also be a bit chaotic during peak hours, and depending on the building, quality really varies; some are great, others not so much. Overall, it works really well if you want convenience, connectivity, and that polished city feel, with the added bonus of actually being able to live there and not just work there.

Business Bay Peak hour traffic is really a challenge to get out of business bay, the metro is always crowded, for families and bachelors its ideal for being the middle of the city and burj views

Business Bay is Dubai’s thriving commercial and mixed-use hub, offering a dynamic environment for both work and lifestyle. Known for its modern skyline, it is home to numerous offices, corporate headquarters, and business centers, making it one of the city’s prime destinations for professionals and entrepreneurs. The community also features high-rise residential towers, stylish apartments, and waterfront promenades along the Dubai Canal, creating a live-work-play environment. Residents enjoy a variety of dining, retail, and leisure options, with easy access to Downtown Dubai, Burj Khalifa, and other key areas. Connectivity is excellent, with major roads and metro access ensuring smooth commuting. However, as a central business district, the area can experience traffic congestion during peak hours, and rental rates tend to be on the higher side. Overall, Business Bay is ideal for those seeking a modern, urban lifestyle in close proximity to Dubai’s commercial and entertainment core.

One of the most central and vibrant locations of Dubai - mix of commercial and residential buildings. Plenty of restaurants, cafes and hotels - giving an ideal city vibe plus very close proximity to Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa! The Dubai Canal within the area is great for evening walks. The parking and traffic can get bit intense especially during peak hours. Getting around Business Bay is not always the easiest - buses are the ideal option for public transport rather than the metro as the buildings are spread out.
