Etihad Town Phase 2 has become one of the most talked-about housing schemes in South Lahore. Early buyer interest rose and fell, but recent work on Pine Avenue has brought the project back into the spotlight. This note looks at where it stands, what the Lahore Development Authority has said, how much plots are selling for, and what buyers should watch out for.
Bookings opened in November 2022. Balloting followed in 2023, and possession began in Blocks A, B, C, and D within about two years of launch. Blocks F, G, and H received possession more recently. Moving from initial booking to staged handover in roughly four years is a quick pace by local standards.
The scheme sits on Jia Bagga Road, between Raiwind Road and Ferozepur Road, beside Lake City and LDA City. At first, reaching the site meant using rural tracks or unfinished parts of LDA City. Pine Avenue, once called Neelam Road, has changed that. The 150-foot corridor runs from Lake City through Jia Bagga Road, past Phases 2, 3, and 4, and on to Ferozepur Road. The Lahore-Sahiwal Motorway link also crosses Phase 2, giving the community four possible entry and exit points. With Pine Avenue fully open, Halloki interchange is about two to three kilometres away, Ferozepur Road four to five kilometres, Thokar Niaz Baig roughly twenty kilometres, and Kalma Chowk around thirty kilometres.
Legal clarity matters. On December 7, 2023, the LDA sent an official letter granting technical approval to a revised layout of about 2,478 kanals and 10 marlas in Mouza Jhedu, Tehsil Model Town, District Lahore. Technical approval clears the design, but final approval is still conditional. Buyers must see sanction fees paid, transfer charges cleared, mortgage and transfer deeds filed, No Objection Certificates from bodies such as the Environmental Protection Agency, and detailed utility plans. It is wise to check current documents with the LDA and confirm that any plot appears on the approved sector map.
On the ground, delivered sectors show paved, carpeted roads. The central boulevard is 100 feet wide, inner streets run between 30 and 40 feet, and Pine Avenue anchors the network at 150 feet. Power lines are underground. The plan includes family parks, a cricket stadium, a central mosque, and reserved land for schools and hospitals. Block E has been merged into the Overseas and Executive Blocks that line Pine Avenue.
Housing plots come in 3, 5, 7, 8, and 10 Marla sizes, plus 1 Kanal options across sectors. Commercial plots of 4 Marla, 5.33 Marla, and 8 Marla sit along main strips, especially where they face Pine Avenue and the Motorway link road.
Rates depend on block, road frontage, and whether possession has been handed over. In Blocks A, B, and C, 5 Marla homes generally sell for 70 to 80 Lakh PKR, 10 Marla plots for 1 Crore 20 Lakh to 1 Crore 30 Lakh PKR, and 1 Kanal plots near 2 Crore 20 Lakh PKR. Overseas and Executive Blocks facing Pine Avenue ask 80 to 90 Lakh PKR for 5 Marla plots and around 1.5 Crore PKR for 10 Marla plots. In Blocks F, G, and H, 5 Marla plots average about 75 Lakh PKR, often with an extra own premium. Commercial land along the Motorway link starts near 1 Crore 60 Lakh PKR for 4 Marla, plus a 10 to 20 Lakh PKR premium, while 5.33 Marla plots stand near 2 Crore 20 Lakh PKR with an estimated 30 Lakh PKR premium. Prime commercial space directly on the 150-foot Pine Avenue corridor commands 6 to 8 Crore PKR.
The strengths are clear. Pine Avenue and the Motorway link give strong South Lahore connectivity. Four access points reduce congestion. Underground wiring, broad roads, parks, and sports facilities create a modern feel. Staged delivery of Blocks A through D, then F, G, and H, shows work is happening on site.
Caution is still needed. Most trading comes from investors rather than residents, so prices can inflate quickly and resale liquidity may tighten if sentiment shifts. Until Pine Avenue is complete, approach roads remain rural and poorly lit at night. The scheme borders Jhedu village, raising concerns about perimeter control, waste disposal, and security. Few families live there yet, and internal schools, clinics, and grocery shops are not operating. File holders have also complained about slow allotment paperwork, weak mobile signals, no public transport, and disputes over development charges. Early talk of about 1 Lakh PKR per Marla has given way to estimates of 3 to 4 Lakh PKR per Marla for full development costs.
Etihad Town Phase 2 is a well-planned scheme whose future is tied to Pine Avenue. Buyers who want to build now can use Blocks A, B, C, and D, while other sections may need more time before they feel like complete neighbourhoods. Anyone purchasing should verify final LDA approval, match plot numbers to the sanctioned map, and get written clarity on all pending development charges before signing.
