Balneário Camboriú, on the Northern Coast of Santa Catarina, is preparing to gain yet another skyscraper of impressive proportions: the project features a height of over 400 meters, 100 floors, and a launch scheduled for the second half of 2026.
Known for its giant buildings, the city has eight residential towers among the 10 tallest already completed in the country—and leads the list with the Yachthouse, at 294.1 meters. This does not even include the Senna Tower, which is still under construction but promises to lead the global ranking with a height of 550 meters.
The project has a projected investment and Gross Sales Value (GSV) of over R$ 2 billion.
The building will be erected in one of the most coveted areas of the urban center, spanning 4,926 square meters, will feature national architecture, and is expected to be considered one of the tallest residential buildings in Latin America.
Designed by the construction company Lotisa, and still without an official name, the development recorded the largest foundation load test ever carried out for a residential building in Brazil, reaching 2,107 tons on a single continuous flight auger pile.
The milestone surpassed the previous national record of 2,000 tons, which belonged to another building in the same city.
R$ 200 million plot of land: The building will be erected in one of the most coveted areas of the urban center, spanning 4,926 square meters.
National architecture: Going against the trend of entirely mirrored and repetitive towers, the project will feature a signature facade focused on national architecture.
Public parking to ease traffic: Aiming to alleviate the shortage of parking spaces in the central region, the skyscraper will have an entire floor dedicated to public paid parking, with access completely separate from that of the residents.
Balneário Camboriú is the second city in the country with the highest proportion of inhabitants living in apartments, accounting for 57.22% of the population, according to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), in a survey released in early 2024.
With 138,701 inhabitants, the municipality, known for the imposing presence of its buildings, relies on the verticalization of housing as an essential factor for the high proportion of the population living in apartments.
The city is the second smallest in territorial extent in the state, despite being the 12th in absolute population.
