Project Highlights

One tower consists of condominiums, while the other features luxury apartments.
The towers are located on a multi-level, 280,776-sf podium that features high-end retail, as well as a grocer. Approximately 1,700 parking stalls are provided in seven below-grade levels.
The towers are constructed with concrete cores and flat post-tensioned concrete plates. Due to the height of the towers, Performance Based Design was utilized to develop an efficient design that eliminates the need for secondary moment frames.
A second phase of the project includes two additional towers containing office space and a luxury hotel.
