Eagle Hills, the UAE-based developer, has announced plans for a mixed-use development project in Budapest, Hungary, which aims to transform a 100-hectare site that has remained unused for a century.

The project, backed by both the UAE and Hungarian governments, will create 35-40 hectares of parks and public spaces.

The development aims to contribute approximately 2 percent to Hungary’s GDP growth and generate employment during construction and operation phases.
