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,[1] 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.[2] It incorporates elements of modern Najdi architecture[3][4][5] and is named after Sidr,[6] 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.[7] Sedra is the first integrated residential community project of Riyadh and the flagship project of Roshn.
