New Luxury Apartment Towers For Panama

The World Gallery designed for Panama City in Central America is one of the more interesting concepts in high-rise living floating around right now. The project has been conceived as three interlinked towers called New York and Tokyo with London in the centre as it appears on the map. The expressed aim of these trio is to try and symbolise international living within one scheme, a cosmopolitan draw to potential residents who make up the core of the wealthy within Panama's leading industries of shipping, banking and finance. Designed with elliptical shapes by Panamanian architect Musa Asvat, the three 50 floor towers joined by a series of skybridges will house a total of 528 apartments between them and rising split into a total of four apartments per floor.

There's no indication however that the towers will actually be internationally themed with sushi restaurants and geishas in one and an olde English pub in the next with cockney barman. The complex will however include boutiques, cigar lounges, wine bars, and even a wine cellar. Basically everything you need to never have to leave home, even a kids play area, will be provided on site in an attempt to make sure you never have to leave home.

The only thing that they do ape the respective cities with ironically is apartment size. It might not be deliberate but as you would expect the ones in the Tokyo block are smaller than the New York and London ones following through the cliché of tighter accommodation in Japan. Also included in The World Gallery is Panama's first international convention centre offering 10,000 square metres of space with a customisable main hall and a 22 floor tall hotel tower above it. Developed by the imaginatively entitled company, Homes Real Estate, construction on the scheme is set to start in December 2007 with completion in the end of 2009.
