Future tallest building in São Paulo: 46 floors and 172 meters high
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – With 172 meters, two meters more than the Mirante do Vale, in downtown, the Platina 2020 will soon be the tallest building in the city of São Paulo.
The project, located in Tatuapé, on the city’s east side, is being built by the developer Porte Engenharia e Urbanismo, which has already delivered almost 50 projects in the region. At this moment, 83.4% of the construction is already finished, and the building is expected to be delivered in June this year.
It will be a mixed-use development, with stores, a hotel, residential apartments, commercial rooms, and corporate slabs. “Our intention was not to be the tallest. But to put into the development everything we think the region needs,” Marco Melro, founder of Porte, told EXAME Invest.
The first floor will have a living façade composed of 19 stores, in line with the Master Plan and with the most modern practices recommended by urban planners to bring life and safety to the residents and those who frequent the region.
On the first floor will be the common area of the residential apartments, which are located on the 2nd to the 10th floors, on the sides of the Intercity hotel, which will occupy the same floors and have a restaurant and balcony on the 10th floor.
Above them will be the commercial rooms, which will occupy the 12th to 24th floors, and the corporate floors, which will occupy the space between the 25th and 46th floors.
Almost the entire building is sold, according to the developer. The average sale price of the residential units in Platina 220 is R$535,000. Apartments range from 35 square meters to 70 square meters. The commercial rooms range from 26 to 49 square meters, and the corporate slabs have 250 square meters.
Before the Platina 220, Porte built Figueira in the adjacent neighborhood of Anália Franco. Today, it is the tallest residential development in the city, with 168 meters high and 50 floors.
PART OF A CORPORATE AXIS IN THE REGION
The Platina 220 is part of the developer’s project called “Eixo Platina” (“Platina Axis”). Ambitious, it will be composed of ten enterprises with their primary goal to build a corporate axis in the region. Something like the “Berrini of the East Zone”, referring to the commercial buildings axis in the South Zone of São Paulo.
It is the third development of the axis to be delivered by Porte. The other two are commercial developments close to the Carrão subway station, consisting of corporate rooms and slabs.
