Chateau Tower of Puerto Madero
Encyclopedia
Château Tower of Puerto Madero is a high-rise residential complex located in the neighborhood of Puerto Madero
in Buenos Aires
, Argentina
.
The development began with the 2006 purchase of two, 7,000 m² (74,000 ft²) lots in the Puerto Madero section by the Château Group, and was origially intended to include two, 48-story residential towers. The group sold the northern lot to the Madrid
-based Rayet Group in 2007, however, and instead built the planned second high-rise on Avenida del Libertador
(in the Núñez
district).
Work on the neo-Second Empire architecture building began promptly, and by early 2009, 75% of its 190 units had been sold; among the premier real estate developments in the city, the sale price ranged from US$330 to US$470 per square foot.
