New Abdali is an area in the Al-Abdali district in Amman, Jordan. Its development plan, launched in 2005, consisting of hotels, apartments, offices, commercial outlets and entertainment to be developed on 384,000 square metres (0.148 sq mi) of land, intending to create a total built-up area of over 2,000,000 square metres (0.77 sq mi). The area already hosts and will further host nearly all of the tallest buildings in Amman, including the current two tallest completed buildings of Amman which are Amman Rotana and W Amman.
A second phase was announced in May 2024, which will cover 1.2 million square meters and is expected to create over 3,000 jobs annually. It includes the construction of a multi-use conference center for 25,000 people, two towers with hotels, residential apartments, commercial centers, and advanced medical facilities. This phase aims to enhance Jordan's position in specialized tourism and promote a sustainable environment with green spaces.

Reception
The Abdali development has faced critiques for creating a neoliberal "urban enclave." Critics argue that its "auto-centric" design effectively excludes individuals without access to private vehicles, which raises concerns regarding accessibility and inclusivity within the urban space.
