5Palms Condominium

5Palms is a luxurious mixed-use residential development located near Mizner Park in Boca Raton. It includes 16 condominiums plus 5,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The nine-story building has two units on each floor with loft ceilings up to 18 feet high on the top floor. It also has a parking deck for owners and visitors. Upscale touches include Turkish stones on the ground floor exterior, and Venetian plaster and a stainless steel water-wall fountain feature in the lobby. The second-floor recreation level features glass tiles and a stainless-steel pool. The primary construction challenge was the building’s tight footprint as a restaurant is directly on the property line. That posed difficulties in receiving material deliveries, hoisting them to the upper floors and removing the construction formwork.
