The first of six towers at a new mixed-use precinct in Cape Town has “topped out” on the 23rd floor, 95 meters above ground, just 30 months after breaking ground.
“Reaching the highest point of Tower 1 at Harbour Arch represents a significant milestone in our construction journey,” said Nicholas Stopforth, managing director of Amdec Property Developments. “Despite an unforeseen delay following the outbreak of Covid-19 in 2020, work has advanced at pace and is on schedule for completion in May next year.
“The wind also played havoc with our construction program, particularly the higher up we went,” he said. “In one of the windiest years in Cape Town’s history, we’re thrilled that the team were still able to top out a structure of this enormity on time.” It will also include 1,188 parking bays across three basements and seven above-ground levels; and 560 residential apartments -82 inclusionary rental units, 158 studio apartments, 203 one-bedroom apartments, 58 two-bedroom apartments and 59 three-bedroom apartments.
