Rafts Business District 6th of October City Master Plan
The project spans 40 feddans with an 800-metre frontage on Waslet Dahshour, and 15 feddans of that in its first phase, given to administrative and retail use. The master plan concentrates on practical space: high-end offices, co-working areas and meeting rooms beside retail units of all sizes. Water features run through the site, and greenery and water shape the outlook from the offices and the retail units. The working day therefore stays inside the district, with room to meet, trade and park without crossing its boundary.

The mix means a working day needs no trip outside the district for food, fitness or pharmacy, and visitors find the same services on the same visit.
