Introduction to The Waterway Compound in New Cairo
The Waterway is one of the most mature projects by The Waterway Developments on North 90th Road, offering a premium lifestyle around distinctive water canals in the heart of Fifth Settlement.
The Waterway New Cairo sits in the heart of Fifth Settlement on 42 feddans, with a water-themed identity giving the compound its well-known visual signature. Compound The Waterway New Cairo is one of the most complete compounds in the area.
Compound The Waterway leverages the established reputation of The Waterway Developments as a leading New Cairo developer. The Waterway Compound New Cairo holds a distinctive identity among Fifth Settlement projects.
The design draws on European waterfront cities, with canals running between villas and apartments and pedestrian walkways along the banks. This character sets The Waterway apart from neighbouring North 90th Road projects.
The compound serves two segments: families seeking a home with a different waterfront character, and investors targeting strong rental yields in a mature compound with high year-round occupancy.

Design of The Waterway Compound
The architectural design of The Waterway draws on European waterfront cities, with canals running between units, pedestrian walks along the banks, and bridges linking the internal neighbourhoods.

Density is intentionally very low, with 80% of the site reserved for green and water surfaces and open walkways, and only 20% for buildings. Residential blocks are low-rise, capped at 4 floors.
The masterplan is divided into small clusters, each overlooking a canal or garden. This split delivers high privacy for every unit and provides water or green views to every resident in Compound The Waterway.
Finishing is semi-finished in older phases and fully finished in the newer releases. The Waterway Compound New Cairo maintains a premium finishing standard across all phases.
Area & Spaces of Units in The Waterway
The Waterway offers a wide unit mix: apartments, duplex penthouses, townhouses, twin houses, and standalone villas. Each type sits at a designated location within the masterplan based on canal proximity.
Apartments range 110–280 m², townhouses 220–280 m², twin houses 250–320 m², and standalone villas 300–500 m². Every unit has a private garden or a private roof depending on its position.
The mix serves the small family seeking a 130 m² apartment, the growing family wanting a twin house on the canal, or the larger family choosing a 500 m² standalone villa with a private garden.
Premium finishing is available with custom options. Detailed sizes and starting prices appear in the unit-types table at the top of this page, kept fresh from the CompoundGate database for each type.

Installment Plan for The Waterway
The Waterway payment plan for active phases: 10% down at contract, with the rest over up to 7 years zero-interest installments, plus cash discounts for accelerated settlement.
Practical example on a 14,000,000-pound apartment at 10% down: the buyer pays 1,400,000 Egyptian pounds at contract, then installments of the remaining 12,600,000 Egyptian pounds across up to 7 years.

For shorter plans, options at 15% down 5-year installments or 10–15% cash discounts for accelerated settlement are available. Contact CompoundGate for the latest payment plans available.
Investment in The Waterway
Investing in The Waterway is driven by three engines. First: the location in the heart of Fifth Settlement on North 90th Road, one of the most in-demand axes in New Cairo.
Second: project maturity and high occupancy ratio guarantee strong rental demand from families working in Cairo Festival City and the nearby universities. Compound The Waterway New Cairo posts high occupancy rates.
Third: the unique water character makes units scarce in the market and lifts their value over time. The Waterway New Cairo enjoys above-average price growth in its neighbourhood.
Rental yield is estimated at 6–8% annually for apartments leased to families working in New Cairo. Villas command monthly rents of 60,000–120,000 Egyptian pounds depending on waterfront view and size.
Compared with sister projects from The Waterway Developments such as The View Waterway and Kairo, The Waterway stands out for project maturity and resale-market depth.

Drawbacks of The Waterway & The Solution
The most material drawback is the higher price-per-metre versus the wider North 90th Road belt, driven by the water character and central location.
Mitigation: historical price growth in the compound beats the area average, so the premium proves a worthwhile investment with a strong rental yield.
A second drawback: some relative gate congestion during peak hours because of the high household concentration on 42 feddans. Mitigation: the developer added multiple gates and organised internal traffic to reduce congestion, with sufficient parking allocated to every unit.
