Free Fall Patios a New Trend?
Scared of heights? Stay inside!
Calgary developer Cove Properties demonstrates taking skysuites to a new height with it’s Alura condo development currently under construction at 1st st SE & 14 ave SE. Not only does the curtain wall glass provide tons of natural light during the day and breathtaking views at night, one can observe at this point of building no patio guard rails to spoil the view either (see photos).
An option that could only be entertained bythose wanting to stand on their patio completely uninhibited, up to 29floors above street level.
Anyone who’s ever stoodoutside in a similar situation can imagine the feeling of full freedom this couldoffer.
With numerous developmentsexisting in the surrounding area, this demonstrates what could be brilliant marketing andprovide a unique opportunity for those considering living in the hip newbeltline community. A number of residentsdesiring this option has not been released.
While it’s hard to fathom‘free fall patios’ are part of an emerging trend, the following photo was takenonly blocks away of what appears to be a low rise condo renovation at the same building stage.
Partial free fall patioscan be seen at KingstonTower at 342 15 ave SW,although the complex is only 8 floors.
Once started, how farcould this trend go?
Look forward to seeingfull freedom developments in southern climates with no outer walls.
Hope you enjoyed thinkingoutside the box.
