Last June 28th marked a significant milestone for the city of Asunción with the official launch of Petra Imperiale. The event, held with the presence of distinguished special guests and executives from the Petra Group, CECON and Banco Sudameris, highlighted the magnitude and innovative vision behind this project that promises to transform the city's skyline.
Petra Imperiale will rise on the prestigious Santa Teresa Avenue, specifically on the corner of Santa Teresa and Capitán Emeterio Miranda. This location was carefully selected for its strategic proximity to important shopping centers such as Shopping del Sol and Paseo de la Galería, as well as renowned corporate buildings such as the World Trade Center. This choice not only responds to the need for comfort and accessibility, but also to the demographic characteristics of the city. With almost 70% of the population under the age of 40 and 50% under the age of 25, and with a large portion of the population looking to be close to their workplaces, Petra Imperiale offers an ideal solution for modern urban living.
The development of Petra Imperiale follows the innovative concept of "Resort Living", combining comfort and exclusivity in the same place. Inspired by the aesthetics and culture of Rome, the project seeks to merge the ancient with the modern, emulating the atmosphere of the Trastevere neighborhood. Residents and visitors will find fountains, sculptures, alleys and arches, creating a unique atmosphere that invites you to walk and enjoy.
The complex will have two large towers. The first, located on the corner of Santa Teresa and Capitán Emeterio Miranda, will be a 24-level corporate building dedicated exclusively to offices, culminating with an attractive rooftop bar. The second tower, L-shaped, will house a hotel from the NH Collection chain and a residential section with 416 apartments.
Petra Imperiale not only stands out for its location and concept, but also for its advanced architecture and design. Inspired by the most modern developments in the Middle East, the building incorporates innovative structures that improve efficiency and functionality. The complex is divided into three blocks: the first for the hotel and one-bedroom apartments and lofts, the second for two-bedroom apartments, and the third for penthouses. A technical floor supplies each block, housing air compressors and large water tanks, which minimizes visual pollution and facilitates maintenance.
Residents of Petra Imperiale will have access to a wide range of amenities designed to improve their quality of life. These are divided into three levels:
Aurum Space : Located on the 10th floor, this space offers closed and heated themed barbecue areas for activities such as pool, foosball and poker, as well as outdoor barbecue-type areas, a swimming pool, gym and laundry.
Platinum Space : Located on the 34th floor, this level is reserved for two-bedroom apartments and penthouses, and includes a water park, play and reading areas for children, and a nursery room, focusing on a more family-friendly environment.
Spa : On the 61st floor, the most premium spa in the country will offer massages, sauna and four private hydromassage spaces in an environment that simulates labyrinths.
Petra Imperiale will stand out as one of the tallest towers in South America, with 73 levels and 250 meters high. The structure includes four basement levels, nine parking levels, and a plaza with dining options. The first level of amenities is located on the 10th floor, followed by the hotel on floors 11 to 15, studio and one-bedroom apartments on floors 16 to 32, and a second level of amenities on the 34th floor. From the 35th floor The two-bedroom apartments are distributed on the 59th, the spa on the 61st floor, and the penthouses on the 62nd to 68th floors.
Petra Imperiale offers a range of housing options ranging from studio apartments starting at $66,900, to two-bedroom apartments starting at $130,000 with garage included. Penthouses, located on the upper floors, start at $800,000, offering unparalleled luxury at competitive prices.
Sudameris Bank offers an attractive financing plan from the beginning of the work, facilitating investment in this high-demand project.
A crucial aspect that deserves to be highlighted is the caliber of the professionals participating in this project. The project is a completely in-house and national development. However, numerous international actors are involved in its execution. The structural calculation has been carried out by Alberto Feinstein, who has worked on most of the Puerto Madero towers in Argentina, including the Alvear Tower. Sergio Estologas, collaborator from Petra Tower, also plays a fundamental role. Estologas analyzes how the structure of Petra Imperiale will behave against the asymmetric winds of Asunción. This analysis, carried out in a wind tunnel in Italy by the Italian-British company Nova Fluid Mechanic, is crucial to guarantee the stability and safety of the tower at all its height levels.
The execution of the project also includes Bernardo Burt, project manager of the Sky Costanera in Santiago, Chile, currently the tallest building in South America. Burt will bring his vast experience and expertise in managing large projects to ensure Petra Imperiale is built to the highest quality standards.
To carry out the construction of this great project, AGB and Tecinci, two of the most important construction companies in the country, will merge to guarantee the highest quality and efficiency in the execution of the work with world-class professionals and vast experience in the execution of skyscrapers. Petra Urbana, together with these leading construction companies, will ensure that Petra Imperiale not only changes the skyline of Asunción, but also consolidates the city as a modern and attractive urban center.
With Petra Imperiale, Asunción is projected into the future, offering its residents a life of luxury and comfort in a dynamic urban environment. Petra Urbana reaffirms its commitment to high-impact development, positioning Asunción as the new eternal city of South America.
