Sedra (Riyadh)

Residential buildings in Saudi Arabia

Sedra (Arabic: سدرة, lit. 'endurance'), stylized as SEDRA, is a housing development project in northern Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, located east of Princess Nourah bint Abdul Rahman University and north of al-Munsiyah in the sub-municipality of al-Rawdah. Introduced in 2020, the master plan for the community was commissioned in 2019 and off-plan sale of units began in 2021 and was finally tenanted by residents in 2022. It incorporates elements of modern Najdi architecture and is named after Sidr, the Arabic word for a jujube tree found in Saudi Arabia and the larger Middle East region which is also mentioned in the Qur'an as Sidrat al-Muntaha. Sedra is the first integrated residential community project of Riyadh and the flagship project of Roshn.
