On an 850-metre frontage raised on a natural hill in the heart of the Golden Square, Fifth Square New Cairo stands as one of the most mature developments delivered by Al Marasem Development in the Fifth Settlement.
The compound stretches across 158 acres directly on North 90th Street, with a deliberately low built-up ratio of no more than 17%, leaving the larger share of the land to green spaces and artificial lakes.
The project combines residential and hotel apartments operated to Rotana standards, alongside townhouses, twin houses and standalone villas.
Hotel unit prices start from EGP 5,800,000 and residential apartments from EGP 13,000,000, with a down payment starting at 5% and installments extending up to 8 years.
Fifth Square New Cairo compound
The Meaning Behind the Name Fifth Square
The name Fifth Square carries a direct reference to both the location and the identity of the project.
The word Fifth points to the Fifth Settlement that hosts the compound, while Square reflects its position inside the Golden Square district, the most prestigious and most active square in the Fifth Settlement.
The name therefore brings together a sense of belonging to one of New Cairo’s best-known addresses and a nod to the orderly character of a project whose units and facilities were distributed according to a precise engineering layout.
Detailed Overview of Fifth Square Compound
Fifth Square was launched in 2017 to become one of the largest integrated residential communities in the Fifth Settlement, with investments exceeding EGP 23.5 billion committed by Al Marasem to translate its long-standing motto of “commitment” into something tangible on the ground.
The choice of site was anything but accidental, as the project was built on an elevated hill rising between 6 and 12 metres with a frontage reaching 850 metres, which gives the majority of units open panoramic views over the greenery and the water bodies.
Al Marasem built its design philosophy around lowering population density and raising each resident’s share of open space, so the built-up ratio was held at just 17%, while the larger portion of the land was allocated to gardens, walkways and water features.
Buildings were designed on a G+3 system, meaning a ground floor plus three upper floors, with unit ceiling heights raised to roughly 3.2 metres to increase the sense of space inside every home, alongside a solar-powered lighting system that reduces running costs and supports the project’s sustainability.
Architecturally, the buildings adopt a contemporary style with refined European touches that still preserve an Eastern character, with walkways and green buffers distributed between units to reinforce privacy.
The compound comprises around 217 residential buildings for apartments in addition to villas of various types, and its execution was divided into 4 main phases, the first three of which sold out completely, a clear reflection of the strength of demand and the market’s confidence in the developer.
That success was not a matter of chance either. Al Marasem reinforced its market presence through its sponsorship of Al Ahly Club alongside a strict commitment to delivery dates, until Fifth Square became one of the most sought-after developments in New Cairo for both living and investment.
The company also paid close attention to distributing service and recreational facilities evenly around the units, so residents find everything they need within walking distance without leaving the compound.

Fifth Square Phases
The project is distributed across several residential phases, each with its own character and unit mix, giving buyers a range of options that suit different needs and budgets within a single compound.
Moon Residences
This phase was designed at the highest point of the project to enjoy open views, and consists of 61 residential buildings that combine modernity with elegance. Unit areas range between 90 m² and 250 m², surrounded by green spaces and water features from every direction.
Lake Residence
Lake Residence is the luxury heart of the compound, comprising units and hotel apartments overlooking one of the largest artificial lakes with soft white sand in New Cairo. The phase sits directly next to Fifth Square Mall on North 90th Street.
It extends across roughly 20,850 m² and includes 5 premium buildings holding close to 456 hotel apartments, which raises the investment value of the project and secures a recurring return throughout the year.
Villa Square
This phase is dedicated to premium villas across their different types, from townhouses and twin houses to standalone villas, with an intelligent spatial layout that separates each unit from the next with green buffers, delivering the highest levels of privacy for buyers who prefer detached living.
Fifth Square Mall
Within the project, the company delivered a large commercial mall extending across 72,000 m² with a ground floor plus three upper levels, hosting more than 300 commercial and administrative units that bring together international and local brands, alongside restaurants, cafés and dedicated entertainment zones for children.

Fifth Square Location
The project occupies one of the strongest addresses among New Cairo compounds, sitting in the middle of the Golden Square directly on North 90th Street, one of the most important and busiest axes in the Fifth Settlement.
This district is widely regarded as the beating heart of New Cairo thanks to its concentration of service, recreational and educational facilities, in addition to its proximity to the main roads and axes that connect the project with the rest of Cairo in a short drive.
Fifth Square also draws value from neighbouring the most upscale residential districts in the Fifth Settlement such as Narges, Banafseg and Yasmeen, alongside its closeness to major compounds and commercial centres, which makes it an ideal meeting point between residential calm and easy access to services.
