West Palm Point spearheads Southern Florida’s commercial office evolution

West Palm Beach, FL, USA

West Palm Point represents a world-class gateway into Downtown West Palm Beach, one of the fastest-growing financial and corporate sector growth markets in South Florida. This premier office tower stands at 338 feet tall with 23 stories, encompassing 470,000 SF of Class A+ office space. Uniting sculptural form, advanced energy efficiency, and outdoor spaces for gathering and leisure, West Palm Point is a signature building in a vibrant, expanding city.

Shaping a dynamic development 

The project features two main architectural elements: the elliptical-shaped tower and an adjacent, stand-alone parking structure with a capacity of approximately 1,200 cars. The ground level includes a distinctive drop-off area at the main entrance and a pedestrian Paseo, which connects the lively landscaped streetscape with the tower and parking structure, creating an active neighborhood gathering space between the two buildings. 

A pedestrian Paseo activated by retail, outdoor seating, and cross-block circulation. 

Converging sculptural form and advanced performance 

The tower's unique elliptical form is accentuated by a series of faceted, stepped petals.  The form tapers as it ascends, accentuating its verticality. The building is clad in a state-of-the-art, high-performance, energy-efficient low-iron and low-e glass curtain wall, articulated with mullions and fins designed to reflect light and create a shimmering iridescence. The 30-foot tall east and west main lobbies feature custom designed structural glass walls supported by full-height glass fins. 

Celebrating an outdoor lifestyle through a verdant roofscape 

A ninth-floor sky bridge, covered by a unique tensile structure, links the tower to a one-acre roof garden atop the parking structure. The lush landscaped garden includes a cafe, entertainment stage, custom designed water feature, putting green and a dog park. The ninth-floor tower amenities offer an expansive fitness center and private conference center.
