Park View City Islamabad: Location, Prices, Payment Plan
Park View City Islamabad is one of the capital’s most talked-about gated housing societies — a CDA-approved development by Vision Group, the real estate company founded by Aleem Khan, located in Zone IV of Islamabad with sweeping views of the Margalla Hills. It was Vision Group’s first major housing project, later followed by a second, separately located project of the same name in Lahore.
This guide covers everything a buyer or investor needs: the master plan and block breakdown, current plot prices, payment plans, the Overseas Block, Phase 2, and the Downtown area’s lake and dancing fountain — one of the project’s most-photographed features.

History of Park View City Islamabad
Park View City was launched by Vision Group, headed by Aleem Khan, as the company’s first major housing society, with development beginning in the mid-2010s. It was designed as a gated community aimed at providing modern infrastructure, security, and long-term investment value in Islamabad’s Zone IV — an area that has seen substantial real estate growth over the past decade thanks to its proximity to the Margalla Hills and major arterial roads.
Approvals & Legal Status
Park View City Islamabad obtained its No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Capital Development Authority (CDA) in 2018. According to multiple industry sources, this approval was temporarily suspended over a land ownership dispute, and was later restored after Vision Group secured a favorable court ruling. As with any housing society, buyers should independently verify current NOC and block-wise approval status directly with CDA or a legal advisor before making a purchase — approval status can apply differently across different blocks and phases.
Key Milestones

- 2018 — CDA NOC granted
- Development of Blocks A, B, D, E, F, and H, now largely complete with functioning utilities
- Overseas Block launch, with balloting held in August 2022 and possession handed over in January 2024
- Golf Estate and Hills Estate blocks added as newer, premium additions

- Park View City Phase 2 launched near T Chowk Rawat, expanding the project toward Rawalpindi
Location & How to Get There
Park View City Islamabad sits in Zone IV of Islamabad, close to the Margalla Hills and Botanical Garden, with the following access points:
- Main access: A 200–400 ft wide CDA-authorized boulevard connecting to Malot Road and Kurri Road
- Main entrance: Via Rawal Chowk and Gate 2, which also connects to Bhara Kahu
- Major road connectivity: Direct access to the Islamabad Expressway and the Kashmir Highway (via Lehtrar Road)
- Nearby developments: Located next to Bahria Enclave and Margalla Enclave (a CDA/DHA project)
This location gives residents a genuinely central position relative to Islamabad’s main hubs while remaining close to the greener, quieter parts of the city near the Margalla Hills.
Park View City Islamabad Master Plan & Blocks
The society is divided alphabetically into blocks (roughly A through N), plus several specialty blocks. Development status varies significantly by block, so it’s worth checking the specific block you’re interested in rather than assuming uniform progress.

Plot prices in Park View City vary significantly by block, development stage, and whether you’re buying from the developer (pre-launch/installment rates) or on the resale market. The figures below are approximate current market ranges — please verify exact current rates directly, as pricing in this project changes frequently.

Commercial Plots

Note on pricing accuracy: Real estate prices in fast-developing Pakistani housing societies shift often — sometimes month to month — based on block, possession status, and market demand. Treat the figures above as a starting reference point, not a quote.
Payment Plan Structure
Most blocks in Park View City Islamabad follow a broadly similar payment structure:
- Down payment: 25% at booking
- Balance: Paid in 8 equal quarterly instalments over 2 years
- Discounts: Often available for lump-sum/full cash payments
- Additional charges: May apply for corner plots, park-facing plots, or other premium locations within a block
Exact terms vary by block and by current developer offers, so confirm the applicable plan for your specific block of interest before booking.
Overseas Block
The Overseas Block was created specifically for expatriate Pakistanis looking to invest in Islamabad property from abroad. It’s located near Gate 1, adjacent to Downtown Commercial, with wider (200 ft) boulevards and its own dedicated Lagoon Club. Balloting for the Overseas Block was held in August 2022, with possession officially handed over in January 2024. It currently offers 5 Marla, 10 Marla, and 1 Kanal residential plots, generally on a 3-year instalment structure — somewhat longer than the standard 2-year plan offered elsewhere in the society, which can make it a more accessible entry point for overseas buyers managing payments remotely.
Park View City Phase 2
Park View City Phase 2 is a newer extension of the project, located near T Chowk Rawat along the Grand Trunk (GT) Road — positioning it closer to Rawalpindi than the original Zone IV location.
Nearby landmarks and drive times:
- Rawat — approx. 4 minutes
- Giga Mall — approx. 7 minutes
- DHA Phase 3 Rawalpindi — approx. 2 minutes
- DHA Phase 4 Rawalpindi — approx. 5 minutes
- Bahria Town Rawalpindi — approx. 10 minutes
- Zero Point, Islamabad — approx. 30 minutes
Phase 2 offers 5 Marla and 10 Marla residential plots on the same general payment structure as the rest of the project (25% down, quarterly instalments), with pricing generally set at pre-launch/early-investor rates that tend to rise as development progresses.
Downtown Islamabad: Lake, Dancing Fountain & The Walk
One of Park View City’s most distinctive features — and one people frequently search for photos of — is Downtown Islamabad, a roughly 300-Kanal commercial and lifestyle hub within the society. It includes:
- A 100-Kanal man-made lake, with Pakistan's largest dancing fountain, which became fully operational and has hosted large public New Year's Eve celebrations
- The Walk — a pedestrian promenade along the lake, lined with cafes and restaurants
- Food Valley — a dedicated food court area featuring local and international cuisine
- An IMAX cinema and other entertainment facilities
- Commercial plots and shopping areas surrounding the lake
This is genuinely more of a public-facing lifestyle and commercial destination than the rest of the society, which explains why people search for “opening time” or “ticket price” for it — see the FAQ below for clarification, since it isn’t a ticketed attraction in the way a theme park is.
Park View City Islamabad Amenities & Facilities
- Masjid Abdur Rehman — a mosque with Turkish-inspired architecture
- Park View Zoo — featuring local and exotic animals
- Golf Estate's 9-hole golf course
- Parks, jogging tracks, and sports facilities
- Schools and healthcare facilities within the community
- 24/7 CCTV surveillance, gated entry/exit points, and on-ground security personnel

No — Park View City is a private residential housing society, not a public park or ticketed attraction. The Downtown area (with its lake and dancing fountain) functions more like a public commercial/lifestyle destination and has hosted public events, but there’s no general admission ticket for the society itself. If you’re planning to visit the Downtown area specifically, it’s worth checking current hours locally, as these can vary by season and event schedule.
Are there jobs available at Park View City Islamabad?
Housing societies of this size typically hire for security, maintenance, sales, and marketing roles. Current openings are best found through Park View City’s official social media channels or by contacting their sales offices directly, rather than through general property guides like this one.
What does Park View City Islamabad's master plan include?
Blocks A through N (with several still in development), plus specialty blocks including the Overseas Block, Golf Estate, Hills Estate, and Downtown Commercial — see the full block breakdown table above.
Is Park View City Phase 2 the same as Park View City Islamabad?
Phase 2 is a newer extension of the same project, located near T Chowk Rawat on the GT Road — closer to Rawalpindi than the original Zone IV site — developed by the same company, Vision Group.
Park View City Islamabad has grown from a single gated community into one of the capital’s larger, more diversified housing projects — spanning affordable residential blocks, a dedicated Overseas Block, a golf-course community, and a genuinely distinctive commercial lakefront in Downtown Islamabad. As with any housing society at this scale, development progress and pricing vary significantly block by block, so it’s worth verifying the specifics for whichever block you’re considering before committing.
