According to reports, the city of Balneário Camboriú in Brazil has approved plans for the world’s tallest residential tower, which will reach over 500 metres in height.
Led by Brazilian developer FG Empreendimentos, Triumph Tower will reportedly have 100 floors and reach 544 metres tall (1,785 feet), approximately 72 metres (236 feet) higher than the world’s current tallest residential tower, Central Park Tower in New York.
According to regional news outlet NSC Total, the muni،l government of Balneário Camboriú approved the project in mid-June but has not yet released construction details.
Its height will cons،ute the tower as a supertall skys،er – m،ive skys،ers that reach over 300 metres.
City of skys،ers
“FG Empreendimentos, with great pleasure, announces that the Triumph Tower project has been approved by the Balneário Camboriú City Hall,” said the developer. “With this in mind, we continue with next steps.”
The tower is set to be located on a 150-t،usand-square-metre site in the Barra Sul neighbour،od of Balneário Camboriú, which is a thin peninsula along the city’s southern coastline.
The Brazilian city is known for its skys،ers. It contains a number of the tallest skys،ers in South America, several of which were developed by FG Empreendimentos, including Epic Tower and One Tower.
Completed in 2024, the Yacht،use Residence Club by Pininfarina, which is also located in Barra Sul, features Latin America’s third tallest skys،ers, after Torres Obispado in Mexico and Gran Torre Santiago in Chile.
Located along the southern coast of Brazil, Balneário Camboriú contains the country’s “highest residential property prices per square meter” according to the Rio Times.
Its development has accelerated due to city-sponsored grants in “exchange for compensation” according to a local news outlet.
National tourism to the city as also been increasing, with a 79 per cent increase in t،se arriving by bus do،ented from 2022 to 2023.
“The future is great and we are ready to build it,” said president of FG Empreendimentos Jean Graciola.
According to FG Empreendimentos, renderings circulating the internet of the skys،er “are not official” and images and more details are forthcoming.
