Alba Palm Beach Breaks Ground on New Luxury Waterfront Residences

By Emily Dawkins

BGI Companies and Blue Road Group have announced that they have officially broken ground for the building of the brand-new Alba Palm Beach luxury boutique residences. Situated in West Palm Beach, Florida, these spectacular waterfront properties, comprised of 55 boutique luxury residences and a limited collection of four unique two and three-story townhouses, are slated for completion in 2025.

Flaunting incredible unobstructed views of West Palm’s iconic Intracoastal Waterway and timeless sleek and contemporary design that is complimented by a host of affluent amenities, Alba Palm Beach is a luxury development like no other. 

Situated in the sought-after neighbourhood of Northwood, Alba has been meticulously designed by West Palm Beach-based Spina O’Rourke + Partners to be lustrous and aesthetic, adorned with high-end modern features and comfortable living spaces. Highlights include a free-form ground level with design accents that blend into the landscape, and an elevated amenity deck that offers perfect unobstructed views for sunrise and sunset. 

Award-winning urban development firm, Schmidt Nichols, who specialises in site development and planning and landscape architectural planning, is the landscape architect. Ortega Construction Company has been chosen as the general contractor for the build.  

Positioned around their coveted Flagler Drive location, the residences of Alba Palm Beach feature incredible panoramic views, ‘graciously appointed’ layouts, oversized glass-framed terraces with summer kitchens, and private plunge pools. From Italian-designed Italkraft kitchens to spa-like baths with designer fixtures, no touch has been forgotten. Alba has even gone above and beyond to ensure the ultimate amount of safety for its homeowners, with hurricane-impact floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors in every property. There are a limited number of residences per floor, each with private elevators and vestibules.

It is not however just the residences of Alba Palm Beach that stand out. A wide range of luxury amenities are available to all homeowners including a Technogym fitness room complete with yoga studio and pilates reformer room; a state-of-the-art conference space; several private workspaces; a multi-sport simulator room and theatre; and an elegant private dining room with climate-controlled wine storage. In total, the Alba amenities span an impressive 25,000 square feet.

Notably for superyacht owners, Alba also offers a day dock with slips available for purchase: perfect for docking a tender. As a unique complement to this, buyers of Alba Palm Beach will receive a one-year complimentary membership to the prestigious Palm Beach Yacht Club; a club renowned as one of the most exclusive private yacht clubs in the whole of Palm Beach County. Membership includes access to the club’s dining room and exceptional hospitality, as well as access to its global reciprocal clubs.

Alba and Magellan Jets have also recently announced a partnership that offers owners access to exclusive usage and perks with its fleet of jets: yet another addition to the Alba exclusivity. 

Kenneth Baboun, Principal Developer of Alba, commented at the ground breaking: ‘It’s a monumental day, not only for myself and partners that brought this moment into reality, but also our residents who will call Alba home. Our vision for this rare piece of land and we believe it was the catalyst for the neighborhood’s healthy condo market we see today. We look forward to welcoming our owners home very soon.’ 

As the only new development directly located on the water in West Palm Beach, it comes as no surprise that 40% of the Alba residences are already sold, with buyers flocking from all over America. 

‘Alba Palm Beach is truly an example of what a team effort can look like between a developer and the surrounding community,’ added Cathleen Ward, District 1 Commissioner. ‘From the start, Alba representatives wanted to make sure the residents knew what was being proposed, and the opportunities this world-class development brings to the north end of our City. I’m looking forward to welcoming the new residents which will call this lovely piece of paradise home.’

West Palm Beach’s Northwood neighbourhood offers an eclectic mix of dining, shopping and art galleries as well as being situated in close proximity to pristine beaches and the renowned Worth Avenue, The Square, Atlantic Ocean boating and so much more.

For those seeking an exclusive luxury waterfront residence, look no further than Alba Palm Beach.
