Located in the Punta Pacifica Peninsula in Panama City, the 68-storey Trump Ocean Club will offer 627 luxury residential condominium units, 369 hotel units, offices and an oceanfront about 295 feet long. The cost of the project is estimated at $227 million and the completion of the condominiums is expected until 2010.

The Trump Ocean Club, International Hotel and Tower Panama presents an advance of 90 % in his works of foundation, and it thinks that the project will be delivered on August 5, 2010.
The new building will consist of 69 floors, and it is catalogued as the most luxurious hotel project of Latin America.:
Located in Pacific Point, Panama City, the work gets up in an area of 260 thousand square meters that includes in addition a casino, with all the characteristics of those who operate in the ciudad of Las Vegas in The United States.

Remind me of:

http://www.sunandskihomes.co.uk/country_images/dubai%20tower.jpg

copycat!

I'm afraid that's the first thing I thought when I saw the initial illustrations, too. With all the design ideas out there, this was the best Trump could come up with? Is it supposed to be special just because it has his name on it?

He's had some notable buildings built-- but IMNTLBHO this one will be notable for all the wrong reasons.

Does anyone know what happened with the legal action that was to take place against the Newland International Properties Corporation?

This article (http://www.arabianbusiness.com/520187-trump-developer-seek-protection-from-jumeirah-litigation) says that Jumeirah Group (the owner/operator of the Burj Al Arab) threatened a lawsuit due to the design similarities.

radiant_city
December 15th, 2008, 08:45 PM
A lawsuit? Boy, I'd love to see how that turns out. On the surface it's like suing an architect for designing another tall glass box, or a songwriter getting sued for writing a song based on your standard 12-bar blues-- but this design is rather close to that of the building designed to be Dubai's signature on the Persian Gulf-- its version of the Eiffel Tower. We shall see...

Dr Drums
December 16th, 2008, 02:20 AM
^^ That's old news, all of that has been ruled out, because there weren't strong bases for the lawsuit. This building will look amazing, and for me it'll be for the right reasons, it will look just beautifull and huge. The Panamenian version of the Eiffel Tower if you may call it like that.

A row over copying iconic building design, which last week caused a diplomatic fracas between India and Bangladesh, is unlikely to spill over to the UAE as most modern buildings are protected by copyright law, an expert has said.

Last week Bangladeshi film director, Ahsanullah Moni, unveiled an exact replica of India’s Taj Mahal, provoking fury from the Indian High Commission.

While the Indian High Commission claimed it was investigating a violation of copyright, Rob Deans, head of Intellectual Property at Clyde & Co in the UAE, said that iconic buildings in the UAE such as the Burj Al Arab are protected.

“The Burj Al Arab is copyright protected [and] will be for a good number of years,” he said adding that the protection covers most new buildings.

“You cannot copy it [the Burj Al Arab] in any form, you can’t copy it by constructing another building, by constructing replicas of any scale, and even taking photographs of the Burj Al Arab will be copyright infringement.”

Moni’s copy of the Taj Mahal, which cost around $62 million, is being built near the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka. It was reported that Moni imported marble and granite from Italy and diamonds from Belgium for the building.

Moni told the UK’s Times that his homage was built because most people living in Bangladesh, cannot afford to travel to India to see the real thing.

“Everyone dreams about seeing the Taj Mahal but very few Bangladeshis can make the trip because it's too expensive for them,” he said.

This news proves that there are no copyright infringments, because if that were the case this building will be on hold and is going faster than never, they understood that both buildings were different.

First of all the first image didn't show up, and second I don't know how many promoters draw all the buildings that surround or are near their projects, I think that wouldn't sell so much, (in my opinion), but ironically and opossed to what you thought, this building is one of the few projects I know that has some renders showing the sorrounding buildings silhouettes, here they are:

Any new updates? The tower is looking better than i thought it would. The setting is something the Burj Dubai cant even compete with.

Also included for owners of The Trump Ocean Club is a beautiful exclusive island about 20 miles offshore. But yeah, a Trump Tower with density, what where they thinking.:)

Huh? Have you been living in your cave? It is time for you to leave your cave and start do some serious traveling... Go to New York City, Chicago, Hong Kong, Vancouver B.C., etc. These cities have very high density and people are willing to pay more for homes they want to live in. Panama City isn't alone. I agree it is in wrong location but I think it should be built at that exact peninsula to stand out instead hide it around towers.

The location is not the best, it should be a the very tip of the point or here is where the Trump Ocean Club should be imo. Planned developement of Costa del Este. The Trump would stand out but at the same time have tall neighbors. (the third tower from the left u/c will be over 280 meters)

^^ That is really bad planning!!! I think all high rises and suburban developments should be separated. It is too weird to have mansions to be surrounded by skyscrapers.

1. Where is public transportation system?
2. Where is the shopping district?
3. It is not walkable neighborhood.
4. It looks like it is hard to get around.
5. Streets are not organized well which makes it difficult to drive around.

I never seen any mansions to be built in the middle of skyscrapers forest before. It is new to me. I don't think I want to live in that type of neighborhood if I am that rich.

1. Panama City´s entire public transportation system is a mess until the light rail is built, this development is contained within Panama City proper and is bound by the City´s public transportation.

The shopping district is there, cannot be described going off 2 images

The rest... well go with what you apparently know, that´s fine.
oops, this is off topic

Lol, I guess that's just the Panama City planning system. I think it's not that bad, just nice for a change. All cities are separated in skyscraper and suburban districts, let's see how this will work out.

They arent all Mansions, as you call them. Most are lowrise apartments, condos and commercial. What should they do tear down all lowrise buildings?
I dont think Seattle did that?

Wow....that building is MASSIVE from the side.....it's going to dominate that side of the skyline.

Not bad planning at all....just the drive to have a good location on the beach. The mansions [if they are that indeed] around it were there first, but land is land and you know the first three rules...location...

You see this a lot on Houston....skyscrapers very close to neighborhoods...nice ones at that. A city without zoning can be really cool. I remember when the Transco tower was finished [called Williams Tower right?]...there was very little in the way of skyscrapers up next to it....the view was stunning.

Panama City has a world class skyline already, but Trump's tower will definitely set it apart.
