Park View City Lahore review: LDA or RUDA, the 2025 flood and prices

Park View City is much closer in than Bahria, about 6 km from Thokar Niaz Baig on Multan Road, but it’s only partly approved. LDA approved the original 765 kanals and refused the extension. RUDA now regulates the area and, as of October 2026, lists the 11,209-kanal scheme as “Provisional Acceptance is Granted”, not final sanction. Six blocks flooded in August 2025. A 5 marla plot averaged a record Rs 63.5 lakh in asking prices in August 2026.

Is it approved by LDA or RUDA?

Both, in part. It depends on where your plot is.

• LDA: only the original River Edge (Revised) scheme, 765.75 kanals, is on LDA’s approved list (as reproduced in May 2025). LDA refused the extension and issued repeated notices from 2010 to 2022 while building went on under a court stay.
• RUDA: the area now falls under the Ravi Urban Development Authority. RUDA declared the society illegal in October 2022. By July 2024, after the developer paid fees, a RUDA official told Profit the scheme had technical approval for about 11,000 kanals.
• RUDA’s own website, checked on 7 October 2026, lists “River Edge Housing Scheme, Multan Road”, 11,209 kanals, as “Provisional Acceptance is Granted”. Other schemes on the same table are marked “Technical Approval is Granted”, and final sanction is a separate list.

The March 2024 headlines saying RUDA had approved the society quoted only the developer’s CEO, who gave a total of 31,000 kanals. No regulator document we found supports that figure.

Did it flood?

Yes. In late August 2025 the Ravi broke into six blocks: Diamond, Crystal, Silver, Tulip Extension, Overseas Extension and Platinum. Dawn reported 1,500 to 2,000 houses under 3 to 6 feet of water. LDA had objected years earlier that the extension land lay in the Ravi riverbed.

The developer promised compensation and began building an embankment; a paid advertorial in April 2026 described it as still under construction. We couldn’t confirm whether compensation was paid. We found no confirmed flooding in the 2026 monsoon; a viral video from July 2026 was fake.

Has possession been given?

In the older blocks, yes: the flood reports alone show thousands of houses lived in. Dawn also described tail-end blocks as uninhabited in August 2025. We found no dated, neutral block-by-block possession data.

What does a plot cost now?

These are Zameen’s averages of asking prices, not sale prices.

A 5 marla plot rose from Rs 43.6 lakh (June 2021) to Rs 61.9 lakh (June 2024), fell to Rs 55.7 lakh by June 2025, then hit a high of Rs 63.5 lakh in August 2026. The flood left no lasting mark on asking prices.

A 10 marla plot went from Rs 81.5 lakh to about Rs 1.28 crore over the same period, with the same dip in 2025.

Gas, electricity and water

We can’t score this. The older blocks are lived in, so supply exists there, but we found no independent, dated source on how gas, electricity or water are provided. The only claim about gas came from the developer’s CEO in 2024.

Who is behind it?

Vision Group (Vision Developers), owned by Abdul Aleem Khan, who was a federal minister and party president as of 2025. The society is large and lived in, but its history is contested:

• It was built out after LDA refused the extension, and RUDA declared it illegal in 2022.
• NAB closed its inquiry into the society in August 2023 under the amended NAB law, not on the merits of the case.
• RUDA has since processed the scheme after the developer paid its fees, and lists it as provisionally accepted.

How easy is it to resell?

Zameen listed 2,105 plots for sale on 7 October 2026, and its price index has run since 2014. That’s an active resale market. We found no data on how long plots take to sell.

Where is it?

On Multan Road between Thokar Niaz Baig and the Ravi, opposite DHA’s EME sector. By road it’s about 6 km from Thokar and 18 km from the GPO on Mall Road, much closer than Bahria Town or Bahria Orchard. The northern blocks sit on the river’s floodplain. See all Lahore reviews.
