SANTO DOMINGO - A 38-story residential project was authorized by the Municipal Council of the Santo Domingo East City Hall on December 11, 2025, which will be located on Bonaire Street in the Alma Rosa I neighborhood, Santo Domingo East.
The approval corresponds to a plot of land measuring 2,014.06 square meters and is contained in a document signed by the president of the Municipal Council, Miguel Fortuna, and the secretary Adalgisa Germán Marrero, in which the use of residential land and a density of 3,800 inhabitants per hectare is authorized.
The document details that the building will consist of 31 levels of apartments, including two levels designated for social areas, forming part of the total of 38 levels approved above ground level.
As approved, the tower will also have a parking infrastructure distributed across four above-ground levels, a semi-basement level and five basements, completing the overall scheme of the project.
The resolution also stipulates that the file be sent to the Municipal Administration, in order to continue with the corresponding legal and administrative procedures.
High-altitude context in the Dominican Republic
Currently, in the Dominican Republic there are several projects considered among the tallest towers in the country, mainly concentrated in the National District, which have marked the vertical development of the country in recent decades:
Torre Anacaona 27, located in Santo Domingo, is the tallest building in the country, with approximately 41 floors and a height of nearly 161 meters, also recognized as one of the tallest in the Caribbean
Torre Caney, also in Santo Domingo, is among the leading residential towers with around 40 levels and nearly 150 meters in height, including amenities such as a helipad and a rooftop pool
The Malecon Center, a complex comprised of three 31-story residential towers and a hotel, is another of the country's emblematic vertical projects
Although the tower approved in Santo Domingo East will not exceed the height of these buildings, its scale represents a significant step in vertical expansion outside the National District, where lower-rise buildings predominate.
