wow

INCREDIBLE

Another amazing proyect for Panama City, and without a doubt this one is the best, with all the technology for this building it is going to be amazing to live in it. great height also :applause:

These towers looks great, I like the design.

I just have to say WAO!

impressive design, love it

OMG!! Panama is booming with supertalls!! dont really like the tallest one, the spire makes it weird. but the others are nice :)

Beautiful, surprising!!

Thanks a lot J.P!

:eek:

We got the updates from the Ice Tower, I hope we get soon the updates for these 3 towers.

WOW, I LOVE THIS TOWERS,

awesome design!! the triangular spire looks very interesting

Updates??

Can't wait for the structure to rise... :banana:

^^
That was my 1000 post!

:nocrook:

congratulations ;)

hmm... not sure about this one

It would look better if it where just one building instead of three towers.It's not my style,but I like the cladding.

Very unique, Panama is lucky.

hmm... not sure about this one

could you be more specific, I´m really curious to know

big project! great addition for the alr-impressive skyline!

What's going on there??? this city is really booming!!

Well yeah, but I just wanted to know what was he not sure about, that´s all, but anyways I don´t care. :banana:

This project is awesome!.. Panama impresses me more and more every day! ;)

Interesting. If Panama city continue to grow like this, i will think of visiting this city one day.

Amazing !!!! I think this one is going to be the second tallest project in all Latin America just after Ice Tower also in Panama City !

Thx for the info and pics !

Amazing !!!! I think this one is going to be the second tallest project in all Latin America just after Ice Tower also in Panama City !

Thx for the info and pics !

U're right! :cheers:

Actually the first three tallest buildings in Latin America are going to be in Panama:

Ice Tower 381 mts.
Los Faros de Panama 346 mts.
Torres Planetarium 346 mts.

And we are waiting the official height for Palacio de la Bahia and Megapolis Tower #2, they are expected to be over 300 mts. as well.

^^ that´s right, and there are rumors that the Megapolis # 2 tower will be above 425m tall, but that´s not official so we have to wait for the official height to come out.

Any updates, I just heard that the Ice Tower will be even taller, how`s the construction site?, anyone has pics???

time for some new pics please....this seems like a real winner...im mean its huge...three towers...and a casino...beats out the Q1 & Euraka Towers...thats got some height on it too....whats the chances i can get ahold of 4 of those dampers....San Antonio's got bad pot holes..:lol: :nuts: :lol: :nuts:

^^ :lol:, here in Panama we need them two, is full of pot holes, so maybe later, and yeah, when can we see some pics!!!!!???

What can i say, i like what i see ;)

I love this building and the site its being built on. I saw its pretty close to everything and el Corredor.

:) this is one huge proyect:nuts:

Can someone put the new pictures update for this proyect?

verygood

any construction pics??

Well, it's been awhile for news on this one for sure. Hope this "proyect" isn't cancelled like a few others that disappeared into thin air, such as Ice Tower. BTW--does anyone know if Planetarium Towers are still in the pipeline? That was a cool looking residential proposal of about 82 stories.

Don´t worry the project "Los Faros de Panamá" is going well as expected, as you can see in the pics, and about planetarium, promoters are still merchandising the building, a model appartment was build on the site to receive future buyiers (view the interiors. etc), it seems they are taking all the time so that they don´t suffer the same fate as the Ice Tower did.

such an amazing project!

very classy facade!

A few others??

You mean 3 out of 150? I wouldn't call that a few others.

Please go and check the Panamanian forum and you will see several construction updates.

At Planetarium Towers they are building the salesoffice and model appartment which will be a part of the tower's base.

Cheers

It is actually more than 300 buildings under construction in Panama right now. :banana: 3 cancelled, that will be 1% not bad!

Beautiful!!!

Any updates of the contruction of the tower?

Just amazing.

the render is really impressive. this is one of my favourite supertalls at the moment

It is not only the tallest, but also the best and most beautiful supertall project in Latin America in my opinion !

Great updates buddy !

i depreciate this tower, the reason:

the height added by the triangular spire in the top of the building.

is mmm, unacceptable for me.

this is my poor opinion, i hope that don't insult my commentary.

The central tower without the spire is 315 mts, for me still tall enough. :banana:

very nice projects :D :banana:

very nice project - INDEED!

:)

btw:

Central tower is 360 meters (1182 ft.) -- East & West towers are 275 meters (903 ft.) high, each.

Info from architects website & the project website.

http://www.losfarosdepanama.com/selectorIdioma.html

Just curious...where does all the demand for these apartments in Panama come from? The entire country has a population of just slightly over 3 million and with an average GDP of $8000 per year its hardly Dubai moneywise.

^^ Tourists for starters... Property taxes in Panama is low -- properties are sold in US dollar - which means with the weak US dollar - it's a prime time to buy properties in Panama and build...

BUILDING PROGRESS

Second phase of excavation:
Rock blasting has begun in the areas where the main footing of the three towers will later be built.
To date, 74,000m3 of clay, 21,000m3 of weathered rock and 5,000m3 of bedrock have been excavated, which represents 67% of the total excavation work due to be carried out in the second phase.
The expected finish date for the second phase of excavation is the end of November 2007.

Foundations, (conventional) perimeter walls, underground networks and waterproofing works:
The next tasks to be carried out include the laying of the foundations, the building of the conventional perimeter walls of the podium building, the laying of underground networks and the waterproofing works.
It is estimated that approximately 70,000m3 of cement will be needed to complete this phase.The contract for this job has been awarded to the company ICA.

^^ Tourists for starters... Property taxes in Panama is low -- properties are sold in US dollar - which means with the weak US dollar - it's a prime time to buy properties in Panama and build...

Exactly, that´s one of the main reasons the demand is so high right now, also lots of Rich Venezuelans are coming to the country running from Chávez government and are buying a great amount of this properties, many South Americans, also Europeans and Canadians are buying, so this is a phenomenom without precedents in Panama, that´s going to be very positive at a long term for the nations economy. actually is showing up with more than 9% economy growth this year, and is expected above 10% in the coming years.

By the way, this is a great project, hope to see it rise in no time.

Surprising to see a project like this in Panama, but heck if they can build it why not?

Good update

That Project has been already completed on March 2010

That Project has been already completed on March 2010

you probably meant it will be finished on that date, ...and btw i just cant wait to see those towers raised and ruling Panama's skyline, i mean their shine, beauty and height are going to be simply monumental in this city:banana:

LOS FAROS DE PANAMÁ: PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS

Using solar energy, they will be found on the roofing of the towers and will be connected to the electrical current consumed in the general public area. The panels, modules or solar collectors are formed by semi conductive distributors, diode type, that as they receive solar radiation electronic energy is produced generating a slight difference in it’s energy level at it’s extremes. Using a series of these photo-diodes enables us to obtain higher voltage in very simple configurations which can feed small electronic distributors.

On a mayor scale, the continuous electrical current that these solar panels produce can be transformed into alternative current and incorporated into the general current, very beneficial economically but which still needs subsidies for enhanced viability. In certain environments where little electrical power is needed and the access to electrical current is difficult, like meteorological or communication stations, solar panels are used as a viable economical alternative.

Updates:
Months October and November 2007

The updates shows the work already done that has to do with perimetral wall construction, and impermeability.
As you can see the terrain is gigantic!!!

BUILDING PROGRESS( LOS FAROS DE PANAMA)

Retaining Walls

RODIO has spent this month carrying out repairs as per the list of exceptions provided by PROINTEC.

Second Phase of Excavation

Clay, weathered rock and bedrock continue to be excavated this month. The area has been perforated explosions were carried out in order to remove rock. The land upon which the towers will be built still contains residual water and is also being dried out. Once the water has been removed, it will be cleaned of sediments in order to leave the land completely clear.

To date 85,372.25 m3 of clay, 42,332.33 m3 of weathered rock and 18,198.37 m3 of bedrock have been excavated, representing 97.92% of the total excavation work due to be carried out in the second phase of excavation.


Foundations, (conventional) perimeter walls, underground networks and waterproofing works

The contract with the Mexican construction company ICA (Associated Civil Engineers) for the construction of the foundations, the retaining walls in the back podium area, the underground networks and waterproofing works, which are to be completed in a 6-month period, has been formalised.

The works are forecast to begin mid-December, once the excavation works have been finalised. At the end of November, ICA Panama received the approved foundation plans (approval for the foundation plans). The next step will be to request the building permit in order to commence the works as soon as possible.

what do you mean?

When is this building going to really start breaking ground?

They will start with this phase during this month:

-----------------------------------------------------------

I think that means that we will see the construction of the above ground floors during July or August of this year, after the fundations and all the underground work is done.

I was told they started the second phase yesterday, they installed a camera as well on the place, can anyone post the link for this?

hopefully we'll see machines and construction workers on the site soon. :)

the second phase???

it looks like they haven't started the first one yet... :S (actually i dunno what would the first one be.. :P)



The first part consisted on dragging, impermeabilization and building perimetral walls all around the terrain as you can see in the pic, this is not an easy task for such a massive complex (you can see how big is the area), right now they are starting the second phase that for what I understand you think is the first one, that consist in the building itself, I hope this clears any doubt about the phases of a project.
We will see plenty of machines working on this terrain in a few days

They're setting up a crane right now, looks like construction is starting to pick up.

It's correct !!!

BUILDING PROGRESS

Retaining Walls
RODIO carried out repair work as per the list provided by PROINTEC. All remaining work was completed by the end of December and the final inspection was carried on 26 December 2007. The works were approved by PROINTEC.

Second Phase of Excavation
The excavation works continued during this month, specifically in T2 where backhoe hammers, shovels and trucks were used to reach the specified levels. In T1, the service pit, with a depth of 6.82 metres, was excavated.
To date 86,614.47 m3 of clay, 44,539.43 m3 of weathered rock and 29,979.84m3 of bedrock have been excavated, representing 108.14% of the total excavation work due to be carried out in the second phase of excavation.

By the beginning of next month, the site will be set out, during which time the plot must be handed over to ICA in perfect condition in order to begin the foundation works. The area surrounding the three towers must be levelled off to -4.82 metres and the podium, which must be completely free of excess material, to 2.23 metres. Furthermore, the company CEPSA will have to remove the work hut from the site before finishing up.

Water is still being extracted from T1 and T2 – a total of five pumps are being used for this purpose. The tractor is used to remove the sediment in these towers.

Foundations, (conventional) perimeter walls, underground networks and waterproofing works.

ICA is beginning the laying of the foundations with a series of preliminary works that include topographic surveying, carried out by its topographers, and the construction of the work hut which will have clay block walls, concrete flag floors and zinc and C-joist roofs.
Furthermore, the architect Humberto Echeverría is making the final adjustments to the design of the show flat so that ICA can begin construction work as soon as possible.

is this the panama city in florida?

No, it's the one in Moldova.

Panama City - Panamá.

Amazing ! They have a nice design and , best of all, they are tall !

Question: All three towers are going up at the same time ? or is each one a different phase of the project ?

yeah these are really beautiful towers. cheers to panama!

:banana:

foundations in Panama City are always so fast....one week only a hole and in the next the tower is rising :nuts:

Now we are going to see our tallest tower in Latinamerica growing up. :banana:

Finally this tower is getting build.

sorry amigos de panama pero a los tipejos del grupo mall (los q estan construyendo esas torres en panama) se les ocurrio hacer un clon de este proyecto en chile, mismo diseño, misma altura, etc

nos tiramos todos a un pozo?? o tener un par de edificios iguales va a transformar a panama city y santiago en ciudades semi hermanitas lol

cuack

nice updates :applause:

nice building!

Thank you Venez for the updates.

i can't wait to see this building in Chile....:nuts:

:weird:, why should you see that tower in chile???

^^

It is because the "Mall Group", owner of this project in Panama has recently announced a project called "Faros de Chile" in Santiago, that looks pretty similar to this project. It is Today just a beggining proposal, there are no architectural project, no place where to build it, no structural studies... 'till now. We'll see soon if this could be a reliable thing or just a press news.

thx, sounds cool, hopefully it will be as tall as this one :)

english please ^^

We are having lots of daily update but I cant notice any change on the site.

Just to keep the thread active :)

english please ^^

S/he says: Isnt here going a little slow? I see very little movement and quantity of work in relation to the work that is "tremnenda"

Google Translate
Dont know what tremnenda is but you can understand the whole text. :)

thx :D

For the stage that it is in and the fact that it is construction for this tower of 346 meters and 2 lateral towers of 290 meters each (3 very tall towers) it is moving at a very fast pace. The webcam shows different angles but it is always 1/3 the coverage.

The Real translation says "Aren't they going a little slow? I see very little movement and many workers in relation to the work that is so big." a playero meant to say "tremenda" and not "tremnenda". Just a simple typo.

^^ Agree :)

I don't think they're going slow.

I hope they refill those bases in 2 days. :)

Great details with this render, it will be stupendous!!!

I think the updates are excellent, but in my opinion they should be paced a little bit, but still excellent work Venez_Pana.

Great Update, hope to see it rising soon.

Whe is it going to rise ??? I know this stage is the hardest one and take a great amount of time. However, they might have sheduled the concrete rising-up stage... Does somebody know about this ?

News????? :|

Update 28/12/2008:
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3095/3144161773_2bb4099b99_o.jpg

looks like its on hold or canceled ? if its, its up to santiago and gdl and mty and mx city

^^ Something like that... :dunno:
28 Dec. and 16 Dec. pics are the same...

i think even this is on hold as many others skyscrapers around the world in this period. skyscrapers are going on only in china and arabian countries ,emirates and kuwait.

On hold???? Any forumer from Panama, please, confirm to us about its current status....
