The building will be designed by the Catalan architect Ricardo Bofill, with whom the company behind the initiative is in a very advanced stage of agreement.

Although various investor groups sought information to build high-rise towers in Marbella, this particular project is the only one approved in the municipal offices, although there has been national investor groups and foreigners very interested in building properties of this type .

The plot where the building is to be built is just over a kilometre from the shoreline in the vicinity of the Olivia Valere nightclub, Hotel Management School Les Roches and Racquet Club Manolo Santana.

The project is for an exclusively residential building of luxury apartments with four apartments per floor .
The rules adopted by the City Council to raise towers of 30 to 50 floors and a maximum height above sea level of 150 meters and to settle on the land on which is located at a maximum height of 50 meters above the sea level.In this case the project is submitted for a project that is about 30 meters above sea level and will reach once built a height at its highest point of 115 meters.

Luxury Marbella Homes

The idea of the promoters is to build luxury flats with up to four per floor with all the usual range of services including private security, spa and fitness facilities.

This project will occupy a total of 30 floors and of the five locations adopted during the last plenary session along side the Istan road.The rest would be located at Realejo where the topography allows one or two projects with a maximum height of 28 floors, in Rio Vervde in which a block of 30 floors high could be built, and two points which could be raised at Guadaiza with separate buildings of 36 floors.

The adoption of this project has come under the scrutiny of three groups of local opposition and has sparked a debate in the city of Marbella, even before knowing the specific projects, which has been reflected in social networks and has created a Facebook group opposed to skyscrapers which yesterday exceeded 740 supporters and they are promoting an initiative to gather signatures against the urban modification that has been approved.
