After completing demolition work on the property that housed the iconic Cine Bahía, construction formally began on AVIDA Residences, a development located on the corner of Insurgentes and Francisco I. Madero streets in Puerto Vallarta’s Romantic Zone. It is one of the newest projects in this area, and once completed, it will house 94 apartments, comprising two-bedroom units, one-bedroom super units, studios and lofts.
The condominium has attracted attention for seeking LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), aimed at sustainable buildings and endorsed by the US Green Building Council (USGBC), in addition to complying with ADA standards, which reflect optimal spaces for people with special needs.
Its amenities include underground parking, lobby with central patio, gourmet market consisting of some of the best restaurants in the city, two-floor fitness center, two elevators, reading room, game room, business center, terrace with semi-Olympic pool, jacuzzi, BBQ area, bar, lounge with a fire pit, hammocks and water mirror.
Applegate Realtors is in charge of marketing AVIDA Residences, while the builder is GOVACASA (the company behind residential communities such as Punta Cala, Loft 256 and Loft 268).
Through a design with smart living and smart home features, AVIDA Residences is aimed at those looking for a comfortable lifestyle that is energy efficient and environmentally responsible. If it obtains LEED certification, it will become the first complex of this kind in the city.
