It provides 1284 car parking bays.A main driver in the design of this building was to create a form that was distinctive, elegant and timeless creating a stark contrast with the JBR skyline.Architectural VisionThe tower’s pure form is an ellipse in plan with a void in the center that serves to increase daylight penetration and views to the palm, JBR beach and the horizon. In essence it functions as two towers with separate cores that are connected in the base for the lobby and at the top for the penthouses and sky lofts. The building and it’s structure are oriented towards the views and is positioned to ensure no view obstructions from the neighboring towers. Through the hotel lobby, one views the sea behind a series of infinity pools and terraces. The podium and the landscape cascade into the beach, creating an awe inspiring fifth elevation for visitors and residents.
