Project Overview

Colombo, the country’s commercial capital, has been consecutively ranked as South Asia’s Best City to Live in by Mercer, where attractiveness for businesses is based on high-quality human capital and competitive costs of doing business. This property is located in the core of the CBD and has close proximity to the Colombo Commercial Port.
Proposed as a high-rise mixed development project by the Urban Development Authority, the property aims to promote and enhance tourism related activities around the area. It has extensive development opportunities to cater to high tourist demand-based activities around the Beira Lake and is situated in close proximity to the CBD and Port City, in addition to the Port. Since it has also been identified under the Beira Lake Intervention Area Development Plan, the property will facilitate new visual linkages with boulevard road areas dedicated for walks, jogs, leisurely strolls and bicycle rides and the green promenade will be extended around to facilitate ease of public access to the lake.

The site will be accessible from D.R. Wijewardhana Mawatha, with proximity to the port, educational facilities, cultural landmarks, financial centers, and major transportation facilities and walking distance to Colombo Fort & Railway Station.

The property has readily available utility services such as water, electricity, sewer and wastewater lines.
