The Walk at Jumeirah Beach Residence is a community shopping street along the Dubai marina seafront consisting of two levels that features 311 retail outlets. It is located in the heart of Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR), a 720,975-square-meter (7.76 million-sq-ft) mixed-use development that comprises 36 residential towers between 39 and 54 stories high, four hotel towers, one corporate tower, and offices. The Walk has a variety of tenants that serve the local community such as restaurants, an art gallery, dry cleaners, cafés, and bookstores situated on both a plaza and ground level. The Walk is one of the first and only retail spaces in Dubai to offer an outdoor, pedestrian-friendly shopping experience along the beachfront that is accentuated by fountains, landscaped shaded courtyards, and alleys.
