Palladium USA International announced Oct. 5 that it has contracted to purchase 2.1 acres of land in Legacy West to build a 30-story luxury high-rise tower. The building will be the tallest structure in Collin County. Palladium USA worked with Legacy West master developer The Karahan Companies in the architectural design of the residential high-rise, said Tom Huth, president and CEO of Palladium USA. “Fehmi [Karahan] was very particular not only in selecting Palladium to be the high-rise residential developer, but also in guiding the architectural look and feel of the development,” said Huth in a news release. “He wanted an iconic statement to be made with this development, not only in terms of … but also in the quality, which will be unparalleled.” The tower—which will occupy more than 410,000 square feet of space—will feature an eight-level parking garage flanked by two-story townhomes with four levels of flats above. An amenity deck on the ninth floor will house a fitness center, spa, 2,300 square-foot fitness center, outdoor swimming pool and sauna. The tower itself will be a glass curtain wall system in an oval shape, and was designed by Humphreys & Partners Urban Architecture LP. Karahan said they found the right developer in Palladium for the high-rise tower, and that it will complement to nearby Windrose Luxury Condo Tower, whose luxury units include floor plans ranging from one-bedroom condos to 2,800 square-foot penthouses. The tower—which has not officially been named yet—will also feature seven car-charging stations, a pet-washing and grooming room, conference room and business lounge, and a 3,800 square-foot bar/lounge and private poker room. “Every detail reflects our efforts to develop an amenity package that will be unsurpassed in high-rise luxury living,” Huth said. Construction on the tower is set to begin in mid-2016 and is set to last approximately two years, according to Huth. Pricing has not yet been determined, but units will range in size from 616 square feet to more than 6,000 square feet for the top penthouse, which will be the largest in the region, according to Huth.
