Faisal Town, Lahore
Faisal Town is a compact LDA-developed residential area in central Lahore, between Model Town, Johar Town and Kalma Chowk, laid out in lettered blocks of mostly 5 to 10 marla houses. It is fully built, well connected, close to Jinnah Hospital and Allama Iqbal Medical College, and valued for being central and settled without Johar Town's density.

What is Faisal Town like?
Small, settled and central. The blocks are built out, the streets are lived in, and the main road carries a working commercial strip. It sits between Model Town's large plots and Johar Town's bustle, and it feels like the middle of the two: ordinary houses on ordinary plots in a place that is easy to get around from.
Who lives here?
Families who want to be central, and a steady population of doctors, students and staff attached to Jinnah Hospital and the medical college on its edge. That institutional demand gives Faisal Town a reliable rental market without Johar Town's turnover. Houses tend to change hands within families and neighbours; it is not a speculative market.
What is nearby?
Jinnah Hospital and Allama Iqbal Medical College, Kalma Chowk and the Ferozepur Road corridor, Model Town Park, and Johar Town's malls and hospitals a short drive west. Gulberg is close enough for work. Barkat Market in Garden Town is the nearest large bazaar.
What should I check before buying in Faisal Town?
It is LDA land: the registered sale deed, a current fard from the Punjab Land Records Authority, the LDA-approved plan and an LDA dues clearance. Houses here are often decades old, so have the structure looked at, and confirm that any extra floor or extension was approved.
